Data Translation Announces Robust, Isolated Digital I/O Module for USB 2.0.


MARLBORO Marlboro or Marlborough (märl`bərō), city (1990 pop. 31,813), Middlesex co., E Mass.; settled on the site of a Native American village 1657, inc. as a city 1890. , Mass. -- Data Translation Inc. announces the DT9817-R, a data acquisition digital I/O relay output module for USB USB
 in full Universal Serial Bus

Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily connected to a computer.
 2.0. This new isolated module provides high drive, and high current digital I/O capability.

"The DT9817-R, the latest addition to the award winning ECONseries was designed for users seeking a portable yet robust solution for driving solid state or mechanical relays." states Fred Molinari, President and CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. . "Users in the harshest of environments can now take advantage of the ease of use of USB and still be assured of the highest reliability."

The DT9817-R provides up to 500V channel to channel isolation on 8 digital input lines with an input voltage range of +/-3V to +/-32V and 8 digital output lines capable of switching up to 30V @400mA..

The DT9817-R input lines can be used in applications for proximity and limit switches, photoelectric Converting photons into electrons. When light is beamed onto a metal, electrons are released from its atoms. The higher the light frequency, the more electron energy released. Photonic sensors of all kinds work on this principle. They sense light and cause an electric current to flow.  switches, and TTL and pushbutton push·but·ton  
n. also push button
A small button that activates an electric circuit when pushed.

adj. also push-but·ton
Equipped with or operated by a pushbutton.
 devices. The outputs can be used for switching AC and DC loads such as relays, electric motor controls, solenoids, and indicator lamps.

The 32-bit counter timer can be run by an internal or external clock. This subsystem supports the following four separate operating modes:

--Event counting

--Frequency measurement

--Edge-to-edge measurement

--Rate generation

Software

The DT9817-R ships with the GO! Application providing easy to use measurement solutions right out of the box. Extensive software tools including DTx-EZ for Visual Basic.NET & C#, an evaluation copy of DT Measure Foundry(R) software, Data Translation's easy to use test and measurement application builder are included. Free software downloads including interface tools to LabVIEW(R) and MATLAB (MATrix LABoratory) A programming language for technical computing from The MathWorks, Natick, MA (www.mathworks.com). Used for a wide variety of scientific and engineering calculations, especially for automatic control and signal processing, MATLAB runs on Windows, Mac and (R) are available on-line at www.datatranslation.com.

Availability

The DT9817-R priced at $299 is available immediately.
