PICO TECHNOLOGY LAUNCHES USB ADC-11
DATA LOGGER WITH 11 CHANNEL VOLTAGE INPUT.
Pico Technology announces the latest addition to their
data acquisition range, the USB ADC-11 Data Logger.
The new product has USB connectivity to allow fast
sampling rates and additional digital outputs for use
as control or alarm outputs.
Available in two variants, the USB ADC-11/10 (10 bit) and USB
ADC-11/12 (12 bit) are both compatible with the multi-purpose
terminal block, providing a substantial enhancement to its flexibility.
The USB ADC-11 provides a cost effective solution for measuring
and recording voltage signals onto any Windows based PC or
laptop. When used with PicoLog® data logging software, which
is able to record up to 1 million readings; the data can be viewed
in real-time or stored on hard disk for later analysis. The popular
PicoScope® can also be used with both models. Both variants
of the USB ADC-11 are capable of measuring up to 11 channels
of voltage at up to 20,000 samples per second. Resolution and
accuracy depend upon the model used; the USB ADC-11/10
provides 1024 discrete voltage levels giving 1% accuracy, whilst
the USB ADC-11/12 offers considerably higher accuracy with
4096 voltage levels and 0.5% accuracy.
Using the optional terminal block significantly expands the
functionality of the USB ADC-11. An area of PCB is reserved
for the design and implementation of custom sensor circuits
such as high precision thermister, standard thermocouple or
current and light measurement.
Alan Tong, Technical Director at Pico Technology comments
"The importance of keeping abreast of the latest PC technology
cannot be understated. USB enabled PC based data acquisition
and oscilloscope devices facilitate a giant leap in performance;
this is why our portfolio includes a range of USB powered
instruments".
Both USB ADC-11 models are available immediately directly
from Pico Technology or any authorised Pico distributor. The
product can be purchased with the optional terminal block with
prices starting from £95. Further information can be accessed
