Page 6: Introducing The Usb-1408Fs-Plus-Oem
Two header connectors for field wiring connections The USB-1408FS-Plus-OEM device is compatible with both USB 1.1 and USB 2.0 ports. The speed of the device may be limited when using a USB 1.1 port due to the difference in transfer rates on the USB 1.1 versions of the protocol (low-speed and full-speed). -

Turn the device over and rest the top of the housing on a flat, stable surface. Caution! The discharge of static electricity can damage some electronic components. Before removing the USB-1408FS-Plus-OEM from its housing, ground yourself using a wrist strap or touch the computer chassis or other grounded object to eliminate any stored static charge. -

For more information on digital signal connections For more information on digital signal connections and digital I/O techniques, refer to the Guide to Signal Connections (available on our web site at www.mccdaq.com/signals/signals.pdf). - Page 16 USB-1408FS-Plus-OEM User's Guide Functional Details Figure 9 shows an ideal, error-free transfer function. The typical calibrated accuracy is range-dependent. Refer to the Accuracy specifications in Chapter 4 for more information. We use a ±10 V range here as an example of what you can expect when performing a measurement in this range.

Figure 11. ADC Transfer function with gain error For example, the USB-1408FS-Plus-OEM exhibits a typical calibrated gain error of ±0.2% on all ranges. For the ±10 V range, this would yield 10 V × ±0.002 = ±20 mV. This means that at full scale, and neglecting the effect of offset, the measurement would be within 20 mV of the actual value. -
Page 18: Power
<500 mA. The maximum output current that is available at the +VO power output terminal is 100 mA. With all outputs at their maximum output current, the USB-1408FS-Plus-OEM in a fully-loaded configuration may be above that allowed by the computer. In this case, determine the per-pin loading in the application to ensure that the maximum loading criteria is met. -
