Data Translation today announced the release of several new low-cost, simultaneous, multifunction data acquisition (DAQ) modules for USB. The DT9826-4 and DT9826-8 combine high-performance, 24-bit analog measurement, digital I/O, counter/timers, and a tachometer channel onto a single plug-and-play device. Both modules offer a board only version for OEMs.

“The new low-cost DT9826-4-OEM module offers multi-functionality and performance for an incredibly low price of only $995,” according to Fred Molinari, President and CEO. “No feature trade-offs were made when designing these products.  Superior accuracy is achieved with a 24-bit Sigma-Delta ADC per channel and galvanic isolation of ±500 V prevents ground loops.”

The DT9826-4 and DT9826-8 offer 4 or 8 analog inputs, 16 digital I/O, two 32-bit counter timers, and one tachometer. Additionally, all Data Translation devices include comprehensive driver and software support compatible with Windows XP/Vista/7. Interface tools for LabVIEW and MATLAB programmers are also available at no additional charge.
