RAD-IO2 Series

Isolated Analog, Digital or Temperature Interfaces to USB and CAN
 

The RAD-IO2 series is a family of ruggedized products that provide an isolated analog, digital or temperature interface to a PC via the PC’s USB port.

These tools can also be paired with Intrepid products that include a USB port such as neoVI RED 2, neoVI ION, neoVI FIRE 2, RAD-Galaxy, ValueCAN 4 Industrial and RAD-Mars. In addition, the RAD-IO2-CANHUB can power and convert the native UART signal to CAN or CAN FD for use in any CAN device.

RAD-IO2 Series<br />

The RAD-IO2 family communicates on an open source UART based serial communication protocol. Up to 3 to 4 devices can be daisy chained. The chain length is limited by current supplied to the chain through USB. All RAD-IO2 devices have input to output isolation, and 2.5kV isolation between each of the eight banks. Bank to bank isolation is important because it allows the common mode voltage of each input signal to be different than the other channels in other banks. (This is a major source of measurement error on non-isolated devices and can damage to the product.) Additionally, noise on one channel will not affect other channels.
