The MCC 118 DAQ HAT provides eight channels of analog voltage measurement for Raspberry Pi based data acquisition / data logger systems. The MCC 118 maximum data rate is 100 kS/s per board for taking single point or waveform voltage measurements. Up to eight MCC 118 devices can be stacked - providing up to 64 channels of data and a maximum throughput of 320 kS/s.
All MCC DAQ HATs provide easy-to-use C/C++® and Python™ open-source libraries and examples allowing you to take reliable, quality measurements quickly.
The MCC 118 is a voltage HAT (Hardware Attached on Top) board designed for usewith Raspberry Pi, the most popular single-board computer on the market today.A HAT is an add-on board with a 40W GPIO (general purpose input/output) connector that conforms to the Raspberry Pi HAT specification.The MCC 118 HAT provides eight single-ended (SE) analog inputs for voltagemeasurements. Up to eight MCC HATs can be stacked onto one Raspberry Pi.
Raspberry Pi Interface
The MCC 118 header plugs into the 40-pingeneral purpose I/O (GPIO) connector on auser-supplied Raspberry Pi. The MCC 118was tested for use with all Raspberry Pimodels with the 40-pin GPIO connector.
HAT configuration
HAT configuration parameters are storedin an on-board EEPROM that allows theRaspberry Pi to automatically set up theGPIO pins when the HAT is connected.
Stackable HATs
Up to eight MCC HAT boards can bestacked onto a single Raspberry Pi. Multiple boards can be synchronized usingexternal clock and trigger input options.Users can mix and match MCC HATmodels in the stack.
Analog InputThe MCC 118 provides eight 12-bit SEanalog inputs. The analog input range isfixed at ±10 V.
