Power Connections
Four of the pins on the I/O connector are not isolated. Pin 50 and pin 100
connect to GND, the computer ground reference. Pin 49 and pin 99 of the
I/O connector supply +5 V from the computer power supply via a
self-resetting fuse. The fuse resets automatically within a few seconds after
an overcurrent condition is removed. The +5 V pins are referenced to the
GND pins and can be used to power external digital circuitry that does not
require isolation.
• Power rating: 1 A at +4.5 to +5.25 V
Warning The power pins, +5 V and GND, are not isolated; they connect to your computer
power supply. Never connect a +5 V power pin directly to GND. Never connect a +5 V or
GND pin to any other voltage source; doing so can lead to injury. National Instruments is
not liable for any damages or injuries resulting from such a connection.
