New USB DAQ module

ADLINK Technology announces its new USB-7230 and USB-7250 isolated USB digital I/O modules, enriching its DAQ/DIO product line with USB form factor. Suitable for I/O expansion or portable applications, both models present an alternative evolution base to ADLINK’s best-selling PCI/LPCIe-7230/7250. With the enhanced integration of a high-speed frequency/event counter, digital filter and change of state (COS) detection in a single USB module, flexible and reliable high voltage control and monitoring applications are fully supported with unbeatable protection.

Easy and Reliable

The USB-7230 provides 32-CH isolated digital I/O and 2-CH frequency/event counters, and the USB-7250 8-CH solid-state relay output (4 form C and 4 form A), 8-CH isolated DI, and 2-CH frequency/event counters. Featuring high voltage on/off control and monitoring, and isolation voltage support up to 2500 VRMS, integrated frequency/event counting and change of state (COS) detection by the built-in complex programmable logic device (CPLD) occupy no CPU resources while avoiding data loss from changes in signal status. As well, a programmable digital filter removes unexpected glitches from input channels to monitor I/O status more efficiently.

All ADLINK's USB DAQ modules feature USB power, removable screw-down terminals for simplified connection, and a multi-functional stand for fast and easy desktop, rail, or wall mounting. Additionally, a lockable USB cable secures connectivity. The USB DAQ modules also make device ID setting a breeze with a rotary control conveniently identifying the active module in multiple-connection configurations.

“With our experience in measurement and automation, we’ve not only developed an integral product line, but also solutions that are flexible, reliable and easily integrated,” said Catherine Wu, the senior product director of ADLINK’s Measurement and Automation Product Segment.

Worry-free Configuration
ADLINK’s included U-Test application is a free ready-to-use testing program delivering easy out-of-the-box configuration and generation of simple functions to get the platform up and running in no time, with no programming required for full data monitoring, logging and FFT analysis. As well, all ADLINK’s USB digital I/O devices are compatible with LabVIEWTM, MATLAB®, Microsoft® Visual Studio®, and Visual Studio.NET®.
