Python API for MagicDAQ Data Acquisition and Test Automation Device

Project description

MagicDAQ is a data acquisition and test automation device (USB DAQ) powered by an easy to use Python API.

MagicDAQ Key Features:

  • 8 Analog inputs, 14 bit resolution, 48 KS/s maximum measurement frequency, -/+ 10V input voltage range
  • 8 Digital inputs / outputs, 0 to 5V range
  • 2 Analog outputs / PWM outputs / sine wave outputs, 0 to 5V range
  • 1 Pulse counter / PWM output, 0 to 3.3V range
  • USB Powered
  • Well documented Python API contains code examples for all functions.

Measurement & Automation Board Overview

An extensive set of hardware testing capabilities can be accessed by connecting the MagicDAQ to the M&A Board. The M&A Board can be used in conjunction with the MagicDAQ, an alternative USB DAQ, or can be used stand alone.

M&A Board Key Features:

  • 3 Current measurement circuits, 5A maximum
  • 1 Low current measurement circuit, measures uAs
  • 4 Temperature measurement probes, -55C to 125C range
  • 4 Switching relays, 10A maximum switching capacity
  • 1 Variable voltage power output, 1V to 10V range, 2A maximum current output
  • 2 Fixed voltage power outputs: 3.3V and 12V

M&A Board Hardware Docs:
