The
2 channels 12-bits differential Analog to Digital
Converter (ADC) via EID's universal serial bus (EUSB)
is an educational data acquisition electronics kit.
It allows you to connect your personal computer (PC) universal
serial port (USB) to the kit on one side, and up to two differential
floating dc voltage source (+/- 2VDC) on the other side.
Together with the our free (AS-IS) demo software, you
will be able to read and log to file DC voltages. The
voltages will display on the screen in millivolts. Additionally,
you will be able to set the log interval and log the
information to file. Our sophisticated software logging Dynamic
Data Exchange (DDE) mechanism allows you to open the
logged file with another program, such as spread-sheets
(MS-Excel etc.), at the same time. Therefore, you
will be able to easily share the file, and view it from anywhere
on the web, print report or graph from your familiar
existing software packages.
The
12- bits Analog to digital converter (ADC)
integrated circuit
(IC) component the MAX1236 (Maxim Inc, www.maxim-ic.com
),
is mounted in a SMT method on the
bottom side. (SMT = Surface Mounted Technology).
This
ADC component has a built-in reference voltage and
internal clock. The device is controlled via 2 wires,
Clock, and Data (I2C protocol).
The kit is based on Cypress
integrated circuit (IC), the CY7C63001.
Note:
The CY7C63001 IC is
Universal Serial Bus (USB) RISC type Micro-controller.
It conforms to USB 1.5 Mbps specification, version 1.1.

No
need for external Power supply! The board is powered directly
from your PC.
Kit
mounting
This
kit includes on board
pre-installed free
EUSB firmware!
This
unique kit design provides you with the ability to wire your wires
easily via front mounted terminal blocks (2 * 2pc. ). You will be able to
measure 1 single-ended voltages directly
from the PC.
This
kit mount easily in plastic enclosure (EID-1593 series).
Please
note: Plastic enclosure
is sold
separately
(for demonstration only).
