Synchronous I/O – mixing analog, digital, and counter scanning
The USB-1616HS-BNC can read analog, digital, and counter inputs, while generating up to two analog outputs
and digital pattern outputs at the same time. Digital and counter inputs do not affect the overall A/D rate
because these inputs use no time slot in the scanning sequencer.
For example, one analog input channel can be scanned at the full 1 MHz A/D rate along with digital and counter
input channels. Each analog channel can have a different gain, and counter and digital channels do not need
additional scanning bandwidth as long as there is at least one analog channel in the scan group.
Digital input channel sampling is not done during the "dead time" of the scan period where no analog sampling
is being done either.
Analog input
The USB-1616HS-BNC has a 16-bit, 1-MHz A/D coupled with 16 differential analog inputs. Seven software
programmable ranges provide inputs from ±10 V to ±100 mV full scale.
Analog input scanning
The USB-1616HS-BNC has several scanning modes to address various applications. You can load the
512-location scan buffer with any combination of analog input channels. All analog input channels in the scan
buffer are measured sequentially at 1 µs per channel by default.
