how can I change analog ouput voltage range of USB 6008 ?

In my application, I need a tuning voltage from 0 to +14V.

I need all values in between 0 and +14V for tuning voltage.
 
But NI USB 6008's analog voltage range is only 0 to +5V.

how can I change analog ouput voltage range of USB 6008 ?
 
Or what kind of DC to DC converter can I use to get 0 to +14V range from 0 to 5V?
 
 
A million thanks!
 
Tim

Sorry Tim, I left your other thread hanging and did not get back to you.
You could (if you can do basic electronics) use an operational amplifier, a couple resistors, and a power supply to create a non-inverting amplifer with a gain of 2.8.
14/5 = 2.8.
 
The LM741 is a common basic op amp. There is a lot of schematics on the web for non-inverting op amp.
 
 
Hope this helps
