Description
The NI-9208 falls under the category of C Series Analog Input modules and is specifically designed for CompactDAQ/CompactRIO systems. It is recognized for its high channel density, featuring 16 analog input channels. This module is available with part numbers 785041-01 for the spring terminal version that is not conformally coated, 780968-01 for the D-Sub connectors version that is not conformally coated, and 780968-02 for the D-Sub connectors version that is conformally coated.
The NI-9208 is described as an Industrial 16 ch Current Input module with a spring terminal. It boasts a 24-bit resolution, utilizing a Delta-Sigma ADC type to ensure high fidelity in data acquisition. The module is engineered for high-resolution mode operation to effectively remove 50/60 Hz noise, enhancing the quality of the signal being measured.
Its input impedance is rated at 85 Ω, and it supports a maximum sample rate of 500 samples per second (S/s). The NI-9208 operates in a scanned sampling mode, which is ideal for applications requiring synchronized sampling across multiple channels.
Regarding connectivity, the module offers flexibility with options for either spring terminal or 37-pin D-SUB connectors, catering to different wiring preferences and requirements. Lastly, its power consumption is modest, requiring only 282 mW in active mode, making it an energy-efficient choice for various industrial applications.
