The USB-6210 from National Instruments (NI) is a high-performance USB multi-function data acquisition (DAQ) module with 16-bit analog input resolution and a sampling rate of up to 250 kS/s, ideal for applications requiring high-precision data acquisition. With its versatility, high precision and lightweight mechanical design, the device excels in test, control and design applications, including portable data logging, field monitoring, embedded OEM, on-board data acquisition, and academic applications.

The USB-6210 module offers 8 differential or 16 single-ended analog input channels with multiple input range options (± 0.2V, ± 1V, ± 5V, ± 10V) and is equipped with an onboard amplifier designed for fast setup times at high scan rates. It also uses signal stream technology to provide USB bidirectional high-speed data transmission capability similar to DMA.

In addition, the USB-6210 features four digital input (DI) and four digital output (DO) ports, as well as two 32-bit counters/timers, allowing it to meet diverse measurement needs. The input/output channel of the device is not equipped with electromagnetic interference protection, so special attention should be paid to electromagnetic interference when connecting the cable to avoid the measurement accuracy.

In terms of safety and electromagnetic compatibility, USB-6210 complies with several international safety standards, including IEC 61010-1 and UL 61010-1, and complies with the 2011/65/EU RoHS Directive restricting the use of hazardous substances, demonstrating NI’s commitment to environmental protection.

For users who need to do data acquisition, the USB-6210 is an ideal choice, which not only provides powerful data acquisition capabilities, but also provides extremely high convenience through the USB interface. With the included NI-DAQmx driver and configuration utility, users can simplify the configuration and measurement process and easily integrate with existing systems.
