The USB-1208LS from Measurement Computing is a low speed USB device that features 8 analog inputs, 2 10-bit analog outputs, 16 digital I/O connections, and 1 32-bit external event counter.
The USB-1208LS analog inputs are software configurable for either 8 11-bit single-ended inputs, or 4 12-bit differential inputs. An on-board industry standard 82C55 programmable peripheral interface chip provides the 16 digital I/O lines in 2 8-bit ports. You can configure each digital port independently for either input or output.
The USB-1208LS is powered by the USB port on your computer. No external power is required.
USB 8 Channel 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.
