Floating analog output with USB-6001

Floating analog output with USB-6001

‎04-20-2021 02:38 AM

Hi,

 

I want to control DC regulated power supply with USB-6001.

But, when USB-6001 and other machines are connected to PC's USB ports, loop circuit is created and can not control power supply.

 

How can I use USB-6001 analogue output in floating mode?

Unfortunately, USB-6001 does not provide floating output. An alternate option, if 6001 is connected to a laptop that is not connected to the ground by any means (charger, monitor etc.,) the 6001 gnd would be floating since it now becomes battery-powered (through the laptop).

Hi, Santhosh

 

Thank you for your comment on USB-6001.

I will change my system without USB-6001.

 

Thanks,
