USB
Interface/Experiment Board Kit or Assembled Unit
The K8055 usb interface board has 5 digital input channels and 8 digital output channels. In addition, there are two analogue inputs and two analogue outputs with 8 bit resolution. The number of inputs/outputs can be further expanded by connecting more (up to a maximum of four) cards to the PC's USB connectors. All communication routines are contained in a Dynamic Link Library (DLL). You may write custom Windows (98SE, 2000, Me, XP) applications in Delphi, Visual Basic, C++ Builder or any other 32-bit Windows application development tool that supports calls to a DLL.
Specifications Hardware:
- power supply through USB: approx. 70mA
- 5 digital inputs (0= ground, 1= open) (on board test buttons provided)
- 2 analog inputs with attenuation and amplification option (internal test +5V provided)
- 8 digital open collector output switches (max. 50V/100mA) (on board LED indication)
- 2 analog outputs:
- 0 to 5V, output resistance 1K5
- PWM 0 to 100% open collector outputs max 100mA / 40V (on board LED indication)
- general conversion time: 20ms per command
- dimensions: 5.7" x 3." x 0.8"
Specifications Software:
- separate output / input test
- clear all / set all function
- counter function on inputs 1 and 2 with adjustable debounce (max 2kHz depends on total I/O load)
- analog output set sliders
- analog input bar-graph indication
- minimum system requirements:
Pentium class CPU
USB1.0 or higher connection
Windows 98SE or higher (Win NT excluded)
