PicoLog 1012 / 1216 — Multichannel Data Acquisition
USB-powered multichannel DAQ loggers for voltage, sensor and transducer applications. PicoLog 1012 provides 12 inputs with 10-bit resolution; PicoLog 1216 provides 16 inputs with 12-bit resolution, up to 1 MS/s capture and up to 4 output channels.
| Model | Inputs | Resolution | Terminal Board | Max Sample Rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PicoLog 1012 | 12 input channels | 10-bit | No terminal board | Up to 1 MS/s |
| PicoLog 1216 | 16 input channels | 12-bit | External terminal board | Up to 1 MS/s |
Key Features
12 or 16 Input Channels
Choose PicoLog 1012 for 12-channel low-cost logging or PicoLog 1216 for 16-channel logging with 12-bit resolution and external terminal-board support.
Expandable DAQ System
Use up to 20 PicoLog data loggers on one PC to build up to a 320-channel acquisition setup.
Up to 1 MS/s Capture
Block-mode capture supports up to 1 MS/s on a single channel, while streaming mode supports continuous logging at lower rates.
Control Outputs
Up to 4 output channels can support alarms, indicators, simple control logic or front-end circuitry.
PicoLog Cloud / Local Recording
Record locally or share cloud-linked captures for remote review without needing a separate recorder.
SDK Integration
Use drivers and SDK workflows for custom data logging, automated reporting and dashboard integration.
