K8055 - USB Experiment Interface Board KIT

The K8055 USB Experiment Interface Board SELF-ASSEMBLY electronic kit has 5 digital input channels and 8 digital output channels. In addition, there are two analogue inputs and two analogue outputs with 8 bit resolution.

The number of inputs/outputs can be further expanded by connecting more (up to a maximum of four) cards to the PC's USB connectors.

All communication routines are contained in a Dynamic Link Library (DLL). You may write custom Windows (98SE, 2000, Me, XP, Vista) applications in Delphi, Visual Basic, C++ Builder or any other 32-bit Windows application development tool that supports calls to a DLL.

Also available in new format PRE-ASSEMBLED Electronic Module format (Order Code VM110N)
