LED The NI USB-6008/6009 device has a green LED next to the USB connector. When the device is connected to a USB port, the LED blinks steadily to indicate that the device is initialized and is receiving power from the connection. If the LED is not blinking, it may mean that the device is not initialized or the computer is in standby mode. In order for the device to be recognized, the device must be connected to a computer that has NI-DAQmx installed on it. If your device is not blinking, m

PGA The progammable-gain amplifier provides input gains of 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, or 20 when configured for differential measurements and gain of 1 when configured for single-ended measurements. The PGA gain is automatically calculated based on the voltage range selected in the measurement application. A/D Converter The analog-to-digital converter (ADC) digitizes the AI signal by converting the analog voltage into a digital code. AI FIFO The NI USB-6008/6009 can perform both single and multi

The differential input mode can measure ±20 V signals in the ±20 V range. However, the maximum voltage on any one pin is ±10 V with respect to GND. For example, if AI 1 is +10 V and AI 5 is –10 V, then the measurement returned from the device is +20 V. 20 15 10 5 AI 1 0 AI 5 Result –5 –10 –15 –20 Figure 8.

Connecting Reference Single-Ended Voltage Signals To connect reference single-ended voltage signals (RSE) to the NI USB-6008/6009, connect the positive voltage signal to the desired AI terminal, and the ground signal to a GND terminal. When no signals are connected to the analog input terminal, the internal resistor divider may cause the terminal to float to approximately 1.4 V when the analog input terminal is configured as RSE. This behavior is normal and does not affect the measurement w

Minimizing Glitches on the Output Signal When you use a DAC to generate a waveform, you may observe glitches in the output signal. These glitches are normal; when a DAQ switches from one voltage to another, it produces glitches due to released charges. The largest glitches occur when the most significant bit of the DAC code changes. You can build a lowpass deglitching filter to remove some of these glitches, depending on the frequency and nature of the output signal. Refer to ni.com/suppor

Caution Exceeding the maximum input voltage ratings or maximum output ratings, which are listed in the Specifications section, can damage the DAQ device and the computer. National Instruments is not liable for any damage resulting from such signal connections. Source/Sink Information The default configuration of the NI USB-6008/6009 DIO ports is open collector, allowing 5 V operation, with an onboard 4.7 kΩ pull-up resistor.

6. Select a static resistor value for your pull-up resistor that is greater than or equal to the ideal resistance. 7. Re-connect the load circuit and the pull-up resistor. I/O Protection To protect the NI USB-6008/6009 against overvoltage, undervoltage, and overcurrent conditions, as well as ESD events, you should avoid these fault conditions by using the following guidelines: � If you configure a DIO line as an output, do not connect it to any external signal source, ground signal, or power
