Description
The USB-6229 is a PC-based multifunction DAQ device identified by the part number 198105A-03L. This device is designed to offer a comprehensive solution for data acquisition needs, featuring 16 differential or 32 single-ended analog input channels. The analog-to-digital conversion (ADC) process is highly precise, with a resolution of 16 bits, ensuring accurate measurement capture.
One of the key specifications of the USB-6229 is its maximum sample rate of 250 kS/s, which allows for high-speed data acquisition, suitable for a wide range of applications. Users have flexibility in connecting sensors and signals thanks to the 128 screw terminals or 30 BNCs/60 screw terminals I/O connectors. This versatility ensures the device can be used in various experimental setups and environments.
The input ranges supported by the USB-6229 include ±10 V, ±5 V, ±1 V, and ±0.2 V, providing the adaptability needed for various signal amplitudes. Additionally, the maximum working voltage of ±11 Volts and a FIFO size of 4,095 samples enhance the device’s performance in demanding situations. Safety is also a priority, with overvoltage protection for all analog input and sense channels, safeguarding the device against potential damage.
The maximum input current for overvoltage situations is specified at ±20 mA, further emphasizing the robustness of this device in protecting against unexpected electrical conditions. Connectivity is facilitated through a USB 2.0 Hi-speed or full-speed interface, ensuring easy integration with PCs for data logging, monitoring, and analysis.
In addition to its impressive input capabilities, the USB-6229 also offers 4 analog output channels, with each channel featuring a DAC (Digital-to-Analog Converter) resolution of 16 bits. This allows for precise control signals to be sent from the device, making it a comprehensive tool for both data acquisition and control applications.
