USB is one of the most well known buses in the computer and electronics industries. This is largely due to its flexibility and simplicity. For measurement and test applications, USB data collection modules come with certain advantages.

No lost time

You can install or remove these modules while the computer is still operating. It is a very simple case of just plugging the device in. You then use it and unplug it once you’re done. There’s no requirement to power your PC down. The USB module is self-identifying and self-enumerating. Therefore, the device driver dynamically loads when you plug it in. Once you unplug the module, it dynamically unloads.

Uncomplicated power connections

Another interesting detail about these USB modules is that you can power them in multiple ways. You can do so through a simple connection to an exterior power source or power it directly via the bus. Low-power designs draw below 100mA at 5V. They also utilise the energy offered by the USB cable. Self-powered variants can draw a maximum of 500mA at 5V. As the name implies, they use their own particular power sources.

Finally, these modules are portable. This makes it easy for you to do the more measurement and test applications into the field.
