Description
The USB-6218 is a PC-based Multifunction DAQ device, designed with a variety of features to meet the needs of complex data acquisition and control applications. It holds part numbers 779678-01, 781005-01, 780106-01, and 196203-01, making it easily identifiable for users and suppliers alike.
This device is an Isolated Multifunction I/O Device, ensuring reliable and accurate measurements by minimizing noise and interference in data signals. With an interface of USB 2.0, it provides easy connectivity and fast data transfer rates to and from a PC, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.
One of the key features of the USB-6218 is its flexibility in handling analog inputs. It offers 32 single-ended or 16 differential analog input channels, allowing users to connect a variety of sensors and signals. Additionally, it has 2 analog output channels, enabling the device to output analog signals for control applications.
The device boasts a 16-bit resolution for precise data acquisition, and it can achieve a maximum sampling rate of 250 kS/s, ensuring that rapid changes in signal can be captured and analyzed accurately. For applications requiring isolation, the USB-6218 offers an isolation voltage of 60 V, providing added protection for sensitive circuits and operators.
With 2 counter devices that have a 32-bit resolution and 4 digital I/Os, this device can handle complex timing, counting, and digital signal operations. The signal streaming capability is enhanced by DMA (Direct Memory Access), which allows for efficient data transfer without burdening the CPU.
The input coupling is DC, suitable for a wide range of signal types. However, users should note the warm-up time of 15 minutes to reach operational stability. To maintain accuracy and reliability, calibration is recommended annually or every two years, ensuring the device performs optimally over its lifecycle.
