5V stability

Does anyone know if the 5V output on USB-6210 has some kind of voltage regulator to keep the voltage stable?

My application is I want to use this 5V output for supply to 3 linear transducers, therefore getting a signal back of 0-5V.

If the voltage supply can fluctate then it will invalidate calibration factors.

 

Thanks

Hi Cooper1,

 

The level of the +5V output can fluctuate with load. You should however be able to overcome this problem by monitoring the level with a spare AI line in order to ensure accurate calibration of your linear transducers.

 

I hope this helps, but let me know if you have any more questions.

 

Thanks,
