Description
The National Instruments PCI-MIO-16E-4 Multifunction I/O Device is a PC-based multifunction DAQ unit that stands out with its model number PCI-MIO-16E-4 and part numbers PCI-6040E, 777383-01. This device is designed to be interfaced with a PCI slot, making it highly compatible with a wide range of computer systems.
It boasts a remarkable data acquisition speed of up to 250 kS/s in multichannel mode and up to 500 kS/s in single-channel scanning mode. This versatility allows users to adjust the performance based on their specific needs, whether they require high-speed data capture from a single source or simultaneous measurements from multiple channels.
With 16 differential or 8 single-ended analog input channels, this device offers flexibility for various types of sensors and signals. Each of these channels provides a 12-bit resolution for accurate data representation. Additionally, it includes 8 digital I/O lines compatible with 5 V TTL/CMOS signals, enhancing its utility in digital signal processing.
The unit also features 2 analog output channels with a 12-bit resolution and a maximum sample rate of 512 Samples/s, each capable of outputting signals in the range of ±10 V. This capability is essential for applications requiring precise control signals or voltage output.
For high-speed data transfer, it employs 3 DMA channels in scatter-gather modes, ensuring efficient and reliable data movement. The device’s timing capabilities are equally impressive, with 2 timing I/O channels, a 24-bit timing resolution, and a maximum timing frequency of 20 MHz, making it suitable for a wide range of timing and control applications.
It supports a broad signal bandwidth with 600 kHz for small signals and 350 kHz for large signals, ensuring that it can handle a wide spectrum of signal frequencies
