Description
The PCI-6221 is a PC-based Multifunction DAQ device, offering a range of features for data acquisition and control applications. This device is identified by part numbers 779066-01 and 779418-01, ensuring you have the right model for your needs.
It uses a 37-Pin D-Sub interface, providing a secure and reliable connection for transmitting data. With the capability to handle 16 Single-ended or 8 Differential Analog Inputs (AI), it offers flexibility in connecting various sensors. Additionally, the device is equipped with 10 Digital I/O (DIO) ports for handling digital signals, alongside 2 Analog Outputs (AO) for outputting analog signals.
The analog outputs can operate at a rate of 833 kS/s (single channel) or 740 kS/s (dual channels), delivering fast performance for real-time applications. The analog input resolution is 16 bits, providing high-quality data acquisition. Furthermore, the device achieves an analog input absolute accuracy of 3100 uV, ensuring precise measurements.
With a data acquisition rate of 250 kS/s and the ability to handle up to 2 32-bit Counters/Timers, it is suitable for a wide range of applications requiring high-speed data logging and time-stamped events. Despite its robust capabilities, the PCI-6221 does not support Simultaneous Sampling, which may be a consideration for certain applications.
This device is compatible with NI SCC and SCXI platforms, making it a versatile choice for users within these ecosystems. Weighing in at just 3.2 oz., it is a lightweight yet powerful tool for your data acquisition needs.
