Description
The product with Part Number 779513-01, 192242B-01 falls under the Category of PC-based Multifunction DAQ and is identified by the Model PCIe-6259. Its main Description specifies it as NI PCIe-6259, which comes with a configuration of 32 Analog Inputs (AI), 48 Digital IO (DIO), and 4 Analog Outputs (AO).
The Analog Inputs can be utilized as 32 single-ended channels or 16 differential channels, offering flexibility for various data acquisition needs. With a Resolution range from 1 to 16-bit, it provides precise data measurement capabilities. The system’s Timing Resolution is exceptionally fine at 50 ns, allowing for accurate timing measurements.
Regarding its performance, the Sample Rate peaks at 1.25 MS/s per channel, and when operating across multiple channels, it maintains a solid 1 MS/s. Users should allow a Warm-up Time of 15 minutes for optimal performance. To ensure accuracy and reliability, a Calibration Period of at least once every 2 years is recommended.
The device also features Analog Outputs with 4 channels, each capable of 2.86 MS/s with a 16-bit resolution, providing high-speed output capabilities. The Digital IO section boasts 48 channels, offering extensive digital interfacing options. For motion control or position measurements, there are 2 Quadrature Encoder Inputs with a 32-bit resolution. Additionally, it includes 2 PWM Outputs, each backed by a 32-bit counter time base running at 80 MHz, suitable for precise control tasks.
Connectivity is facilitated through I/O Connectors, which include 2 connectors of 68 pins each, ensuring a vast range of connection possibilities for various data acquisition and control scenarios.
