National Instruments USB-6210 Multifunction I/O Device
The USB-6210 (part numbers 787936-01, 780103-01, 780124-01, and 779675-01) is a versatile USB multifunction I/O device from the M Series by National Instruments. An excellent choice for portable control, design, and test applications—the USB-6210 features 16 single-ended analog input channels that are configurable as 8 differential channels.
These channels are designed with 16 bits of ADC resolution, paired with a sample rate of 250 kS/s. The USB-6210 includes four software-configurable digital I/O lines that can be individually configured as either inputs or outputs. The device also includes two 16-bit analog output channels for signal generation and control applications.
Part number 780124-01 is the version of the NI USB-6210 that is equipped with Signal Express LE, while the part number 780103-01 was offered with software support options for Mac OS X and Linux systems, while the hardware specifications remain the same as other USB-6210 variants.
Part numbers 787936-01 and 779675-01 are both standard variations of the device, with similar specifications. Activated and installed by using the NI-DAQmx driver, the USB-6210 is compatible with LabVIEW, Measurement Studio, and LabWindows/CVI software tools.
Two 16-position combicon I/O connectors are featured on the NI USB-6210, allowing for versatile connectivity with a wide range of applications. In addition, the device has a USB connector (series B), which has an input voltage of 4.5 V to 5.25 V when in a configured state. The screw terminals of the USB-6210 have a wiring of 16 AWG to 28 AWG and a torque of 0.22 N · m to 0.25 N · m (2.0 lb · in. to 2.2 lb · in.).
Designed to comply with the electrical safety standards of IEC 61010-1, EN 61010-1, UL 61010-1, and CSA C22.2 No. 61010-1, the maximum working voltage between any analog input terminal and earth ground is 11 V.
Built for indoor use only, the multifunction I/O device has an operating temperature range of 0 ºC to 45 ºC. When not in use, the device can be safely stored in an even wider range of temperatures from -20 ºC to 70 ºC. For both operational and non-operational scenarios, it's recommended to utilize the NI USB-6210 within a non-condensing humidity level ranging from 10% to 90%. The NI USB-6210 has a weight of 206 grams (7.2 ounces) and measures 16.9 cm × 9.4 cm × 3.1 cm (6.65 inches × 3.70 inches × 1.20 inches).
The USB-6210 is no longer available from National Instruments, but the Multifunction I/O Device will remain available in perpetuity for both purchase and repairs with Apex Waves!
