Measurement Computing Launches 24-Bit Multifunction Temperature and Voltage Modules

By DE Editors

Measurement Computing’s USB-2416 Series aremultifunction measurement and control boards designed for the USB bus. Each is amultiplexed,24-bit measurement system that provides up to 16 differential and up to 32single-ended analog inputs, with a 1 kS/s aggregatethroughput. Each offers nine software-selectable analog input ranges (±20V,±10V, ±5V, ±2.5V, ±1.25V, ±0.625V, ±0.312V, ±0.156V, ±0.078V). The analog inputscan be configured as thermocouple inputs (up to 16 differential). Inthermocouple mode, the USB-2416 includes built-in cold-junction compensation andopen thermocouple detection.

In addition to the analog inputs, the USB-2416 Series includes eightlines of digital I/O and two 32-bit counters. The USB-2416 Series provides500 VDC isolation between the field wiring and the USBinterface.

The PS-5V2AEPS 10-W regulated power supply (included), provides the 5VDC, 2A of power. An optional expansion module(AI-EXP32) doubles the analog input channels to 32DI/64SE, and adds 16 digitalI/O lines. For more information, visit MCCDAQ.com.
