Key Features and Benefits:
  • USB 2.0 and USB 1.1, true plug-and-play compatibility
  • Up to 96 digital I/O lines, 64 I/O and 32 input, grouped into 12 8-bit ports
  • 500V isolation barrier protects the computer and module from voltage spikes, ESD, and surges
  • Runs under Windows® 2000 and XP platforms

Now, adding data acquisition capabilities to your PC is as easy as plugging in a mouse or keyboard. Within minutes of connecting one of our compact data acquisition modules to your computer and your sensor directly to the module, you’re ready to make measurements of voltage, temperature, pressure - whatever you need. And you have done this without opening your PC, without complicated programming, and without spending time configuring the module, power requirements, or connection schemes.

The Keithley KUSB-3100 Series brings true plug-and-play data acquisition to computers that contain Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 and 1.1 ports. No more opening up your computer chassis to install boards - just plug in the module, install the included software, and you are ready to make measurements. It's easy and efficient.

The KUSB-3160 module provides 96 digital lines, 64 I/O and 32 input, grouped into twelve 8-bit ports. Eight ports are either input or output with four ports dedicated as inputs. Digital outputs are capable of driving external solid-state relays (12mA sink). The KUSB-3160 can generate an interrupt when any of the eight digital I/O lines corresponding to ports 1 or 2 changes state. This feature is useful when you want to monitor critical signals or when you want to signal the host computer to transfer data to or from the board. You can enable the interrupts on a bit-by-bit basis on this port. All signals are brought out to a dedicated, standard 100-pin connector on the backplate of the KUSB-3160 module. The KUSB-STP 100 screw terminal panel and KUSB-CABDIO are available to simplify connections. The 500V isolation barrier protects your computer and ensures a reliable stream of data.
