About this item

The Digilent MCC USB-CTR04 is a high-speed counter/timer USB device designed for precise frequency and pulse measurements in industrial automation, embedded systems, and laboratory applications. It features four counter inputs with a maximum input frequency of 48 MHz and supports software-selectable resolutions up to 64 bits, enabling accurate counting of high-frequency events. With an aggregate scan rate of 8 MB/s, it ensures rapid data acquisition for time-sensitive applications. The device offers multiple counter input modes, including totalize, period, pulse width, and timing, allowing flexibility in measuring various signal characteristics. Additionally, it provides four independent pulse-width modulation (PWM) timers, which can be utilized for generating precise timing signals. The eight bit-configurable digital I/O channels facilitate integration with external devices, enhancing the device's versatility. Synchronous high-speed reads of digital and counter inputs ensure consistent data capture across all channels. Powered via USB, the USB-CTR04 eliminates the need for external power supplies, simplifying setup and reducing space requirements. Software support includes DAQami for data logging and visualization, along with drivers for popular programming languages and applications such as Visual C++, C#, .NET, DASYLab, LabVIEW, Linux, and Python, making it a comprehensive solution for high-speed counting and timing needs.
