2 screw terminals rows provide connections for 8 analog inputs, 2 10-bit analog outputs, 4 bidirectional digital I/O lines, and 1 32-bit external event counter. You can configure the analog input connections with software as either 4 single-ended or 8 differential channels. All analog connections terminate at the screw terminals. 24 bidirectional digital I/O lines are also available on a 37-pin connector.
An on-board industry standard 82C55 programmable peripheral interface chip provides 24 digital I/O lines that terminate at a 37-pin connector.
The miniLAB 1008 is powered by the USB port on your computer. No external power is required.
miniLAB 1008 Multifunction DAQ includes:
>> 2 Meter Long USB Cable
>> Measurement Computing’s DAQ software suite that includes, TracerDAQ, The Universal Library, Comprehensive drivers for DASYLab and NI LabVIEW as well as InstaCal software utility for installation, calibration, and testing.
