San Diego, CA (PRWEB) May 26, 2005 -- ACCES I/O Products reveals its newest
digital I/O product, Model USB-DIO-32. This USB device is an ideal solution for
adding portable, easy-to-install, digital I/O and counter capabilities to any PC
or embedded system with a USB port. The unit is a true USB 2.0 device, offering
the highest speed available with the USB bus. It is fully compatible with both
USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 ports. The unit is plug-and-play which allows quick connect
or disconnect whenever you need additional I/O on your USB port. The USB-DIO-32
can be used in a variety of applications such as home, portable, laptop,
education, laboratory, industrial automation and embedded OEM.
The
USB-DIO-32 features 32 lines of TTL-compatible digital I/O on four 8-bit ports
with high-current output capabilities and three optional 82C54 counters. Power
is supplied to the device via the USB cable or, for higher current applications,
an external power option is available. Unlike other USB digital I/O products
which primarily use a human interface device (HID) driver, ACCES offers an easy
to use, Windows-based, custom function driver optimized for maximum data
throughput. This approach enables the full functionality of the hardware along
with maximizing the advantage of using the high-speed USB 2.0 bus.
Key

- High-speed USB 2.0 device, USB 1.1 compatible
- Small
(3.5 by 3.7 in.), portable, 32-channel USB digital I/O module
- Four 8-bit
ports independently selectable for inputs or outputs
- All 32 I/O lines
buffered with Sink 64mA / Source 32mA current capabilities

wiring
- Three optional 82C54 counter/timers
- Rugged industrial
enclosure
The USB-DIO-32 is designed to be used in rugged industrial
environments but is small enough to fit nicely onto any desk or testing station.
The board is PC/104 sized (3.550 by 3.775 inches) and ships inside a steel
powder-coated enclosure with an anti-skid bottom. ACCES offers a number of
options with the USB-DIO-32 for added flexibility. An economy version is
available without the screw terminal adaptor and the OEM (board only) version is
perfect for a variety of embedded applications. The board’s PC/104 compatible
pre-drilled mounting holes ensure easy installation using standard standoffs
inside most enclosures or systems.
The USB-DIO-32 is supported for use in
most operating systems and includes a free Linux and Windows 98/NT/2000/XP/2003
compatible software package. This package contains sample programs and source
code in Visual Basic, Delphi, C++ Builder, and Visual C++ for Windows. Also
incorporated is a graphical setup program in Windows. Third party support
includes a Windows standard dll interface usable from the most popular
application programs. Linux support consists of installation files and basic
samples for programming from user level via an open source kernel
driver.
