Description
The PXI-6040E is a PXI Multifunction Data Acquisition (DAQ) device with part numbers 777484-01 and 184361A-01. It is designed to meet a wide range of data acquisition needs with its 12-Bit resolution and flexibility in handling 16 single-ended or 8 differential analog input channels. This device is capable of achieving a maximum sampling rate of 500 kS/s, making it suitable for capturing fast transient signals with high fidelity.
It features 2 analog outputs and boasts a measurement sensitivity of 0.008 mV, ensuring precise data capture and generation. The I/O connectivity is facilitated through a 68-pin male 0.050 D-type connector, and it has an input impedance for trigger signals of 10 kΩ. The PXI-6040E supports multiple modes including Non-referenced single-ended, Differential single-ended, and Referenced single-ended (RSE), providing versatility in signal measurement and conditioning.
Integration with software is seamless, offering LabVIEW integration and NI-DAQmx support for streamlined application development and data analysis. It is also compatible with other Application Development Environments (ADEs) such as LabWindows/CVI and Measurement Studio, enhancing its utility in various engineering and scientific applications.
The physical dimensions of the PXI-6040E are compact, measuring 6.3 x 3.9 inches, and it operates within a temperature range of 0° to 55° C. To ensure optimal performance, a recommended warm-up time of 15 minutes is advised. Calibration of the device is recommended once a year to maintain accuracy and reliability. Despite being announced as obsolete by National Instruments, the PXI-6040E remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, ensuring continued support and availability for users.
