Product Specifications and Features

Designed for hands-on experimentation outside the lab, NI myDAQ combines portability with a comprehensive set of features. NI myDAQ allows for real engineering and, when combined with NI LabVIEW and Multisim, gives students the power to prototype systems and analyze circuits outside of the lecture and lab.

Single Device Provides Eight Commonly Used Plug-and-Play Computer-Based Lab Instruments

With NI myDAQ, the computer becomes the instrument. Eight common engineering instruments install with the NI ELVISmx hardware driver.

Designed by National Instruments with High-Quality Texas Instruments Analog Integrated Circuits (ICs)

The hardware system diagram and list of Texas Instruments IC's in the NI myDAQ user guide depicts how TI data converters, amplifiers, and interface and power management circuits were used in the design of NI myDAQ.

Compact and Portable for Use Anywhere, Anytime

NI myDAQ is compact enough to fit in the pocket of your backpack and is entirely USB-powered so you can use it anywhere you can use your laptop.

Extend the Capabilities with LabVIEW and Multisim

Verify homework solutions with real signals using Multisim for circuit simulation and LabVIEW for automating measurements and performing signal processing.

iPod-Compatible 3.5mm Audio Input and Output for Mixing and Manipulating Audio

Analyze audio signals using software instruments or manipulate them using LabVIEW to create your own graphic equalizer, karaoke machine, and more.

Two Differential Analog Input and Analog Output Channels (200kS/s, 16 bit, +/- 10 Volts)

Access matched analog input and output channels in a +/- 10 volt range through the screw terminal connectors or +/- 2 volt range through the 3.5mm audio jacks.

+5 , +15, and -15 Volt Power Supply Outputs (up to 500m Watts of Power)

USB powered for maximum mobility, myDAQ supplies enough power for simple circuits and sensors.

Eight Digital Input and Digital Output Lines (3.3 Volt TTL-Compatible)

Use software-timed digital lines for interfacing both Low Voltage TTL (LVTTL) and 5 volt TTL digital circuits. Each line is individually selectable for input or output.

60 Volt Digital Multimeter (DMM) for Measuring Voltage, Current, and Resistance

The isolated DMM includes the capability to measure both AC and DC voltage and current as well as resistance, diode voltage, and continuity.

Reusable Storage Box with Storage Tray, DMM Probes, and Audio Cable

The box and storage tray provide convenient storage for your NI myDAQ and included USB cable, DMM probes, audio cable, as well as your own components and accessories.
