Phidgets - PhidgetInterfaceKit 8/8/8 with 6 port hubs


Phidgets are an easy to use set of building blocks for low cost sensing and control from your PC. Using the Universal Serial Bus (USB) as the basis for all Phidgets, the complexity is managed behind an easy to use and robust Application Programming Interface (API). Applications can be developed quickly in Visual Basic, VBA (Microsoft Access and Excel), LabView, Java, Delphi, C and C++.

PhidgetInterfaceKit 8/8/8
w/ 6 port hubs

The PhidgetInterfaceKit 8/8/8 provides:

  • 8 Analog Inputs
  • 8 Digital Inputs with hardware noise filtering
  • 8 Digital Outputs
  • On-board powered 6-port full-speed (12Mbit/s) USB hub

Comes packaged with:

  • Power Supply 12VDC 2.0A (UK or EU)
  • 180cm USB Cable
  • A mounting hardware kit

Analog Inputs

The Analog Inputs are used to measure continuous quantities, such as temperature, humidity, position, pressure, etc. Phidgets offers a wide variety of sensors that can be plugged directly into the board using the cable included with the sensor.

Digital Inputs

The Digital Inputs have a Digital Input Hardware Filter to eliminate false triggering from electrical noise. They can be used to convey the state of devices such as push buttons, limit switches, relays, and logic levels.

Digital Outputs

The Digital Outputs can be used to drive LEDs, solid state relays (such as the 3052 SSR Relay Board), transistors; in fact, anything that will accept a CMOS signal.

USB Hub

Connecting additional USB devices to the 1019 is as easy as plugging them into the on-board 6-port hub. Each USB port on the hub has a maximum current supply of 500mA.
