Description
The PCIe-6346 is a PC-based multifunction DAQ device with a part number of 785813-01. This device is designed for a wide range of applications and offers impressive specifications that cater to various data acquisition needs.
It features 8 Simultaneous Analog Inputs (AI) which are 16-bit with a sampling rate of 500kS/s per channel, making it suitable for high-speed data collection. Alongside, the device provides 2 Analog Outputs (AO) and a considerable amount of 24 Digital I/O (DIO) ports, allowing for versatile signal handling and output capabilities.
For tasks requiring precise timing and counting, the PCIe-6346 is equipped with 4 general-purpose 32-bit counters/timers. The maximum sample rate reaches up to 500 kS/s per channel for AI, and the maximum update rate for AO can go up to 840 kS/s, demonstrating its efficiency in handling fast data streams.
The AO FIFO size is notably large, with up to 8191 samples, ensuring smooth data handling during high-speed output operations. Although the AI FIFO size is not specified, the device maintains high performance with its available resources. Additionally, it includes 1 frequency generator channel for tasks that require frequency generation, further enhancing its utility.
The base clocks of the device include 20 MHz, 100 kHz, and 10 MHz, with a clock accuracy of 50 ppm, ensuring precise timing for all operations. The PCIe-6346 utilizes NI-STC3 technology and is fully compatible with the NI-DAQmx driver, providing a robust and user-friendly experience for all users.
