Description
The PXI-4462 is a dynamic signal acquisition card designed for use in PXI systems. Manufactured by National Instruments, this card is part of the PXI DSA category and is known for its high resolution and sample rate. It comes with the part numbers 779688-01 and 779131-01.
This model boasts a 24-bit resolution and a sample rate of up to 204.8 kS/s, making it suitable for high-precision measurements. It is equipped with four channels for dynamic signal acquisition, allowing for simultaneous data collection from multiple sources.
The PXI-4462 offers six gain settings to accommodate various signal levels, and it features a high-pass filter with a cutoff frequency of 3.4 Hz. This card supports both differential and pseudo-differential terminal configurations for analog input, providing flexibility in connecting to different signal sources. The analog overload point at a 0 dB gain range is 10.7 Vpk, ensuring robust performance even in demanding applications.
Software compatibility is extensive, covering LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, Microsoft Visual C++, Microsoft Visual Basic, Borland C++, and Microsoft .NET, facilitated by the NI-DAQmx driver software. Configuration and management are made easy with the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) tool.
Although it has been announced as obsolete by National Instruments, the PXI-4462 remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, ensuring continued support for users of this advanced data acquisition tool.
