Description
The PCI-6704 is a high-precision data acquisition device with part numbers 777306-01 and 183689-01. This device offers a 16 Bit resolution and features 32 channels, which include 16 current outputs and 16 voltage outputs. Additionally, it is equipped with 8 digital I/O lines for enhanced connectivity and control options.
The current output range of the PCI-6704 is from 0 to 20 mA, and it offers a voltage output range of ±10 V. For applications requiring precise linearity, it can deliver a maximum load current of ±10.1 mA for 16-bit linearity. Furthermore, the current control range spans from 0.1 to 20.2 mA, ensuring versatile application across various fields.
One of the key features of the PCI-6704 is its current output accuracy, which is within ± 1.1 mA (max) within 0.5 seconds of power-on, ensuring reliable performance in critical applications. The device is driven by NIDAQmx software and is compatible with several Application Development Environments (ADEs) such as LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and Measurement Studio.
The PCI-6704 is designed with a 68-pin male I/O connector for easy integration into existing systems. It boasts physical dimensions of 3.9 x 6.9 inches, allowing for compact setup configurations. The device operates within a temperature range of 0 to 55 °C and can be stored in conditions ranging from -20 to 70 °C. Its humidity range is from 5 to 90% RH (non-condensing), making it suitable for a wide range of environmental conditions.
