USB 6003: Digital Output 3.3V -- need 5V

Solved!
Go to solution

I have a USB 6003 and I am trying to output two pulses (at different times with finite pulses). I would like the outputs to be 0-5V, but currently it is 0-3.3V. I have looked into this briefly (and still do not completely understand it...), but I believe I need to change the digital DAQmx drive to either open collector or active drain: https://knowledge.ni.com/KnowledgeArticleDetails?id=kA00Z0000019N8KSAU. Which should I use and do I need to wire something up externally to get 0-5V logic operation? Thanks

Can you send a screenshot of your code so we have a better idea of your system?

To get 5V on the output, you need to configure the channel to be Open Collector with a 1k resistor to 5V per the specification.
