Description
The PCI-6052E is a PC-based Multifunction DAQ with part numbers 185489-01 (Board Only) and 777745-01 (Complete). This device offers an impressive sample rate of up to 333 kS/s and features a high analog input resolution of 16-bit. It supports 16 single-ended or 8 differential analog input channels, along with a maximum working voltage of ±11 V (DC input coupled).
The device also includes 8 digital I/O lines and 2 analog output channels, both of which also have a 16-bit resolution. For timing and counting, it is equipped with 24-bit counters/clocks capable of up to 20 MHz, alongside a NI DAQ-STC timing controller. There are three timing groups (General-purpose counter/timer, analog input, analog output) and a combination of seven 24-bit and three 16-bit counters for versatile timing tasks. The timing resolution is as precise as 50 ns.
With a FIFO buffer size of 512 samples and 3 Direct Memory Access (DMA) channels operating in scatter-gather mode, data transfer is efficient and reliable. To ensure optimal performance, a warm-up time of 15 minutes is recommended. The device’s TRIG1 signal operates in edge-location mode, while the STARTSCAN signal uses edge-detection mode for triggering functions.
The PCI-6052E has a modest weight of 5.6 oz. and dimensions of 6.9 x 4.2 in, making it a compact and practical choice for a wide range of data acquisition tasks.
