ADLINK USB-1210 USB 2.0 data acquisition module

ADLINK Technology has announced its USB 2.0 data acquisition module, the USB-1210. The product supports four 16-bit channels of simultaneous sampling at up to 2 MSps per channel. It is suitable for portable measurement applications such as ultrasound and optical sensors.

The product features high dynamic performance, delivering -100 dB THD and 14.3-Bit ENOB at up to 2 MSps. With 256 MS deep onboard FIFO, a data buffer enables long-term data acquisition and recording at full speed, preventing data loss from slow CPU response under heavy system loading. The unit’s built-in precision reference voltage makes auto-calibration simple, reducing the impact of environmental temperature variations to maximise accuracy.

To maintain performance in varied conditions, the product supports external digital/analog trigger source and flexible trigger modes. In addition, 500 VDC isolation protects the connected computer from hazardous voltage caused by improper signal connection and an anti-noise capability prevents improper ground loop interference.

The product supports Windows 8 and Windows 7 operating systems and is fully compatible with third-party software such as LabVIEW, MATLAB and Visual Studio.NET. With the company’s U-Test software, users can quickly and easily process instrument set-up and quality data acquisition with no programming required.
