Parameter Conditions Specification
A/D converter type ADS1256, 24-bit Sigma Delta
A/D data rates 3750 samples per second (S/s), 2000 S/s, 1000 S/s, 500 S/s, 100 S/s,
60 S/s, 50 S/s, 25 S/s, 10 S/s, 5 S/s, 2.5 S/s
Throughput  Single channel: 2.5 Hz to 1102.94 Hz, software selectable
 Multiple channels: 0.16 Hz to 1102.94 Hz, software selectable
See Table 18 and Table 19 for details.
Number of channels Up to 32 channels individually software-configurable as single-
ended or differential
Thermocouples require differential mode. For each channel
configured as differential, you essentially lose one single-ended
channel. You can add channels by connecting to an AI-EXP32.
Input isolation 500 VDC minimum between field wiring and USB interface
Channel configurations Temperature sensor input, software programmable to match sensor
