Phidgets VINT-Hub Phidget HUB0001_0
The HUB0001 is a drop-in replacement for the HUB0000, supported by Phidget22 version 1.8 or newer.
HUB0001 will enable data rate increases of up to 10x for future generations of VINT devices.
The VINT Hub is one of the most commonly used Phidgets. Connect up to 6 devices to your computer through a single USB port.
Each VINT port can perform one of four roles:
- Communicate with an intelligent VINT Device
- Read a 0-5V Voltage or ratiometric sensor
- Act as a digital output
- Read switches as a digital input
- The mode of each port is set in your program, allowing for flexible use in projects.
Technical Details:
- Plug and Program - Device is automatically discovered by the Phidget API when attached
- Pulse Width Modulation Enabled - Ports in DigitalOutput mode support PWM, useful for dimming LEDs and other simple components
- Analog Sensor compatible - Each port is backward compatible with both ratiometric and non-ratiometric Phidget analog sensors
- USB Voltage Supply - Each port has a power and ground pin providing direct access to the USB voltage supply
- Improved Performance on newer VINT devices:
- Shield: Better immunity on compatible VINT devices, resulting in longer maximum cable length
- Speed: Higher speeds on compatible VINT devices
Connection & Compatibility
USB Cables
Use a USB cable to connect this Phidget to your computer. We have a number of different lengths available, although the maximum length of a USB cable is 5 meters due to limitations in the timing protocol. For longer distances, we recommend that you use a Single Board Computer to control the Phidget remotely.

Phidget Cables
Use Phidget cables to connect sensors and VINT devices to this hub. You can solder multiple cables together in order to make even longer Phidget cables, but you should be aware of the effects of having long wires in your system.
