Description
The PCI-4452 is a legacy Data Acquisition (DAQ) device, designed for specialized data acquisition and instrument control applications. It features a part number 777534-12, initially mentioned, later referred to within the description as 778317-01. This device falls under the category of Legacy DAQ Devices, indicating its established presence in the field.
The PCI-4452 model is specifically designed to accommodate 4 simultaneous Analog Inputs (AI), with a 16-bit resolution and a maximum sampling rate of 204.8 kS/s. It comes equipped with NI-DAQ software, enhancing its compatibility and ease of integration into existing systems. Furthermore, it boasts a unique measure function, seamlessly integrating data acquisition capabilities with Microsoft Excel for simplified data analysis and control operations.
Featuring an advanced interface, the device allows for Advanced I/O signals through a 50-position connector, ensuring a wide range of connectivity options for various applications. Additionally, it supports both Differential (DIFF) and referenced single-ended (SE) inputs, the latter achievable with the BNC-2140 DSA accessory. This flexibility in input type is essential for accommodating diverse signal types in complex measurement scenarios.
The PCI-4452 is capable of handling Signal Configuration that supports SE or DIFF signals, whether they are floating or ground-referenced, providing versatility in dealing with various signal environments. Moreover, it includes a programmable switch for DC Offset Handling, allowing users to bypass or include DC offset in the ADC signal path based on the requirements of their specific application.
Despite its Obsolete Status, as announced by National Instruments, the PCI-4452 remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves. This availability ensures that users can continue to rely on this device for their critical data acquisition and instrument control needs without concern for immediate obsolescence.
