How to read thermocouple output with NI USB-6009

Thanks for the thorough analysis Ned!

 

Funnily enough I now remember seeing that very line in the datasheet, but unfortunately I didn't understand what it meant at the time. Thanks for clarifying!

 

Just for my own clarification and edification, Is the point of the additional 50k resistor in series to bring the effective impedence of the AD594/595's output up to the level of the USB6008's input impedence of 127k? Is there an advantage to using the simple resistor (beyond cost/simplicity) as opposed to the voltage follower configuration?

 

Thanks for all the input!
