Description
The DAQPad-6052E is a multifunction I/O device designed by National Instruments, belonging to the category of Legacy DAQ Devices. It is well-suited for a wide range of data acquisition and control applications. The device supports a variety of part numbers including 778535-01, 778535-04, 778535-06, 778536-01, 778536-04, and 778536-06, catering to diverse requirements and configurations.
One of the key features of the DAQPad-6052E is its FireWire (IEEE 1394) connection type, ensuring high-speed data transfer and communication with computers and other devices. It boasts a 16-bit Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) and a 16-bit Digital to Analog Converter (DAC) with voltage outputs, providing precise data conversion for both input and output signals.
The device is equipped with two 24-bit counters/timers, enhancing its capability to handle complex timing tasks and measurements. With a sampling rate of up to 333 kS/s, it allows for high-speed data acquisition, making it suitable for capturing fast-changing signals.
It offers flexibility in channel configuration, supporting 16 single-ended or 8 differential input channels, which can be used according to the specific requirements of the application. Additionally, the DAQPad-6052E has a FIFO buffer size of 512 samples, aiding in the efficient management of data flow during acquisition.
The device provides a range of software selectable gain options (0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100), allowing users to amplify the input signal to an optimal level for precise measurements. Power options are specific to the country, ensuring compatibility with regional power supply standards.
Software compatibility is another strong suit of the DAQPad-6052E, as it works seamlessly with LabVIEW, CVI, Visual C++, and other development environments via Measurement Studio. This wide range of compatible software tools opens up endless possibilities for application development and integration.
