USB-5801 is a high accuracy dynamic signal acquisition USB 3.0 module specifically designed for vibration and acoustic measurements. It provides four simultaneously sampled, 24-bit, IEPE sensor inputs with up to 192 kS/s sample rate for high resolu- tion measurements. It is also equipped with two 24-bit analog outputs with up to 192 kS/s update rate.
Board ID Switch USB-5801 modules have a built-in DIP switch that is used to define the board ID for each module. When multiple modules are installed in the same system, the board ID switch can be used to identify each module’s device number.

The pseudo-differential configuration provides a ground reference between the floating source and the USB-5801 by connecting a 50 Ω resistor from the nega- tive input to ground. This is shown in Figure 3.2. Without this, the floating source can drift outside of the input common-mode range of the USB-5801.
There is no settling time issue when switching the analog input channels from AC coupling to DC coupling. The high-pass RC filter for AC coupling will attenuate the low-frequency component of the input signal. The -3 dB cut-off frequency is 0.796 Hz. USB-5801 User Manual...
3.4.4 Integrated Electronic Piezoelectric (IEPE) Excitation The USB-5801 is equipped with a 2 mA constant current source of IEPE excitation for each analog input channel. When an IEPE sensor such as accelerometer or microphone is connected to the analog input terminals, the IEPE excitation for that channel must be enabled.
3.4.5 Analog Input Ranges The USB-5801 supports 4 different analog input ranges: ±10 V, ±5 V, ±2 V, and ±1 V. Users should select the input range that is large enough for all possible voltage val- ues of the input signal, and small enough to make full use of the input dynamic range.
Analog Output 3.5.1 Analog Output Overview The USB-5801 provides 2 channels of analog output (AO) signal measurement. Fig- ure 3.7 shows the functional block diagram of one analog input channel. Figure 3.7 Analog Output Functional Block Diagram The DAC generates single-ended analog output signals. The single-ended signal is converted to differential signal by a buffer, and then goes through a low-pass interpo- lating filtered to a BNC connector.
3.5.3 Analog Output Loads Although the USB-5801 is specified to drive a minimal load of 600 Ω, the output sig- nal distortion is minimized for high impedance load. Users can, for example, connect the analog outputs to external devices with larger input impedance such as 10 kΩ or 100 kΩ...
Trigger 3.6.1 Trigger Functions Data acquisition or generation of the USB-5801 is controlled by the start trigger and the stop trigger. The returned data consists of samples acquired after the start trigger occurs and before the stop trigger occurs. Both the start and stop triggers can be delayed by a predefined delay sample num- ber.
±10 V input range as analog trigger source, a 0.1% hysteresis range equals to 20 mV. Figure 3.14 shows examples of both rising edge and falling edge analog trig- ger with hysteresis. Figure 3.12 Analog Triggers with Hysteresis USB-5801 User Manual...
3.7.1 Analog Calibration Overview USB-5801 implements a specially designed circuitry for analog calibration. By select- ing different calibration sources, each component of the analog functions can be cali- brated individually. In addition, the calibration parameter is stored in an electrically- erasable programmable read-only memory (EEPROM).
Repeat this step until the DMM reading is within the voltage range specified by "target voltage". Repeat steps 2 through 3 for all voltage references. Figure 3.14 Voltage Reference Calibration USB-5801 User Manual...

Digital Input/Output 3.8.1 Digital Inputs The USB-5801 provides 4 channels of digital input (DI) signal measurement with 2,500 V galvanic isolation. Figure 3.21 shows the functional block diagram of one digital input channel. Figure 3.19 Digital Input Functional Block Diagram When an external voltage (V in Figure 3.21) is applied to the digital input between...

(VEX), and the ground of the external source should be connected to the ground of the USB-5801. When the digital output is on, the MOSFET on the USB-5801 closes and provides a path for the load current flowing through to the ground. When the digital output is off, on the other hand, the MOSFET opens and blocks the path.
FIFO. By subtracting consecutive two counter values (TCA and TCB), the period or the frequency of the signal can be cal- culated as shown in the following equations. A frequency measurement example is shown in Figure 3.27. Figure 3.25 Frequency Measurement USB-5801 User Manual...
For example, to calculate the phase of the 1.5 V analog input sample (the second sample) in Figure 3.28, first find the corresponding PC, which is 1005. Then find the TCA and TCB, which are 1000 and 2000, respectively. Use the previous equation, the phase of the 1.5 V analog input sample can be calculated as 1.8°. USB-5801 User Manual...
3.10 Synchronization Multiple USB-5801 modules can be synchronized to support more acquisition chan- nels. Each module has one trigger input pin (TRGIN) and one trigger output pin (TRGOUT). To synchronize multiple modules, users must choose one of the modules to be the trigger master, and others as trigger slaves. Connect TRGOUT pin of the...
