VINT Hub Phidget

£36.72 £30.60

The core of our product line, the USB VINT Hub has 6 VINT ports allowing for endless possibilities for USB sensing and control.

The VINT Hub is one of the most commonly used Phidgets. Connect up to 6 devices to your computer through a single USB port.

Or

Each VINT port can perform one of four roles:

  • Communicate with an intelligent VINT Device
  • Read a 0-5V Voltage or ratiometric sensor
  • Act as a digital output
  • Read switches as a digital input
  • The mode of each port is set in your program, allowing for flexible use in projects.

Technical details:

  • Plug and Program - Device is automatically discovered by the Phidget API when attached
  • Pulse Width Modulation Enabled - Ports in DigitalOutput mode support PWM, useful for dimming LEDs and other simple components
  • Analog Sensor compatible - Each port is backward compatible with both ratiometric and non-ratiometric Phidget analog sensors
  • USB Voltage Supply - Each port has a power and ground pin providing direct access to the USB voltage supply
  • Improved Performance on newer VINT devices. See the Advanced Topics section of the User Guide for more details.
