An absolutely brilliant and unique idea has been launched by BMC Messsysteme GmbH (bmcm), longtime manufacturer for innovative measurement technology "made in Germany". The analog USB measuring system USB-AD and the digital I/O interface USB-PIO have been compressed extremely and integrated into a Sub-D connector housing.
What some might consider as an incomplete delivery is the real clou: Customers, who order a USB device at bmcm for analog or digital measurement data acquisition, receive a red USB cable with an attached 25- or 37-pole Sub-D connector. That's supposed to be all? No, of course not! A "Software Collection" CD is included as well. Everybody who is not discouraged until now, and connects the USB cable to the PC, will see that into the red plastic housing of the Sub-D connector highly compressed measurement technology has been put: the USB data acquisition system.
Two types of the measurement devices in plug housing are available: With the USB-AD up to 16 analog signals can be sampled in the +/-5V measuring range with 12Bit resolution. In addition, one analog output and four digital inputs and outputs each are provided. For exclusively digital applications the USB-PIO features 24 digital lines, which are switched between input and output in groups of 8.
