USB-AI16-2A

Product catalog summary

Quick Start
To set up the USB module, first install the software package using either a downloaded installer or a Software Master CD. After installation, connect the device to a power source if using external power, then attach the USB cable. The device is operational when the green Power/Activity LED is illuminated. If the LED does not light, check the Device Manager for driver updates.

Introduction
The USB-AI16-2A is a high-speed USB 2.0 device featuring two 1MHz 16-bit A/D converters for simultaneous analog and digital input acquisition. It includes a 4k sample FIFO, software-selectable input ranges, and eight digital I/Os, housed in a rugged steel enclosure suitable for industrial environments.

Hardware
The device is PC/104 sized, RoHS compliant, and supports industrial temperature ranges. It includes a green LED for power and activity status. The package includes the USB module, a 6’ USB cable, and optional accessories.

Configuration Settings
Digital I/O can be configured for pull-up or pull-down resistors, and power can be sourced from USB or externally. Use a Philips screwdriver to open the enclosure and follow ESD precautions.

PC Interface
Compatible with USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports, the device can be powered via USB or external power. It includes a standard USB-B connector and an alternate micro-fit header for embedded applications.

I/O Interface
The device features three I/O connectors: a 16-pin IDC header for digital I/O and two BNC connectors for analog inputs. Digital I/O bits can be configured for pull-up or pull-down resistors.

Software Interface
The device uses a high-speed custom function driver for maximum data throughput, supporting Windows and Linux. Sample programs and source code are available, and the onboard FIFO queues data in 8-byte structures.

Specifications
The device is compatible with USB 2.0/3.0, features a 16-bit data FIFO, and various analog and digital input/output specifications. It operates in temperatures from 0° to 85°C and requires approximately 415 mA of power.

Certifications
The device meets CE and FCC standards and is available in RoHS-compliant models. Users should prevent static discharge and connect cables with the device powered off to avoid damage.
