Description
The PCI-6220 is a multifunction Data Acquisition (DAQ) device that falls under the PC-based Multifunction DAQ category. It is part of the acclaimed M Series and is known for its versatility and high performance.
This device has a part number of 782355-01, which may also be referred to by its alternative part numbers 779065-01 and 191329-04. It is equipped with 16 analog inputs, which can be configured as either 16 single-ended channels or 8 differential channels, catering to a wide range of sensor types and signal measurements.
Additionally, the PCI-6220 boasts 24 digital I/O channels, providing ample capacity for digital control and monitoring tasks. It also features two 32-bit counters/timers, enhancing its utility in applications requiring precise timing and pulse generation.
The device supports a maximum sample rate of 250 kS/s, enabling the capture of fast transient signals across its inputs. Connectivity is facilitated through a single 68-pin VHDCI connector, ensuring high-density and robust connections to external signals and sensors.
Protection circuits are integrated to safeguard the device against overvoltages, with a protection rating of ±25 V while the device is on and ±15 V when it is off. This feature enhances the PCI-6220’s durability and reliability in harsh environments.
For triggering, the device offers a comprehensive triggering portfolio, including external digital triggers from any PFI and RTSI, alongside an RTSI trigger bus RTSI <0…7>. This flexibility allows for seamless integration into complex measurement and control setups.
The PCI-6220 is equipped with six DMA channels, supporting efficient data transfers across digital input, digital output, analog input, and both counter/timer channels. It requires a warm-up time of 15 minutes for optimum performance and is recommended to be calibrated at least once a year to maintain accuracy.
