Description
The PXI-6123 is a multifunction Data Acquisition (DAQ) device distinguished by its part numbers 779181-01 and 779180-01. This device falls under the category of PXI Multifunction DAQ, known for its high performance in data acquisition systems.
One of the key specifications of the PXI-6123 is its sample rate, which reaches up to 500 kS/s, providing efficient data sampling for various applications. The device boasts a resolution of 16 bits, ensuring precise data measurement with an absolute accuracy of 4.96 mV. To achieve optimal performance, a warm-up time of 15 minutes is required, with a recommended calibration interval of every 2 years. Notably, the PXI-6123 supports self-calibration with NI-MCal, facilitating easy maintenance and accuracy.
Regarding its input and output capabilities, the PXI-6123 is equipped with 8 analog input channels and 8 digital I/O channels, alongside 2 counters. However, it does not offer analog output channels. The input gain is programmable, allowing users to adjust the sensitivity of the device according to their specific needs.
The device incorporates NI-STC3 timing technology and supports PCI Express Streaming, enhancing its performance in data transfer and synchronization tasks. For software compatibility, the PXI-6123 is supported by NI-DAQmx drivers, ensuring seamless integration with various development environments. Users have the flexibility to program the device using DAQExpress, C, C#, Python, LabVIEW, and more, catering to a wide range of application requirements.
It has reached its mature status as announced by National Instruments, but it remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves. This ensures that users can continue to rely on the PXI-6123 for their data acquisition needs even as newer models are introduced to the market.
