Description
The National Instruments C Series offers a variety of modules designed for versatile applications, among which the NI-9260 model stands out as a high-performance C Series Analog Output module. This module is available in different versions, including the 157152D-01L, with specific versions designed for BNC and Mini-XLR connectivity, identified by part numbers 783466-01 and 783467-01 respectively.
Designed to cater to audio applications, the NI-9260 features a 2-Ch Audio Output Module, allowing for dual-channel audio output. It operates at an impressive update rate of 51.2 k Samples/second, ensuring smooth and accurate analog signal generation. The output range of the module is 3 Vrms, with a high-resolution output of 24-bit, which facilitates precise control over signal amplitude.
Depending on the version, the NI-9260 offers flexibility in connectivity with options for BNC or Mini-XLR connectors. The output stage is designed to be Pseudo-differential for the BNC version and Balanced and Fully Differential for the Mini-XLR version, allowing for versatile audio signal management. Additionally, the module is equipped with robust protection mechanisms, including short circuit protection and ±30 V overvoltage protection, ensuring durability and reliability in demanding environments.
The heart of the NI-9260’s performance is its 24-bit, Delta-Sigma type Digital-to-Analog converter, which guarantees high fidelity and low noise in signal conversion. Support for DC Output Coupling is also included, broadening the module’s application range. Despite its advanced features, the NI-9260 maintains a low typical measurement error, with only ±0.6%, ±0.05 dB gain error, and ±0.7%, ±30 mV offset error, ensuring accurate and consistent performance. Furthermore, its maximum power consumption is remarkably low at
