Description
The Part Number for this device is either 198927D-05L or 781476-01, indicating it may have multiple versions or configurations available to meet various application needs. This device falls under the Category of PXI Multifunction DAQ, which signifies its versatility in data acquisition tasks within the PXI form factor.
Specifically, the model PXIe-6378 is described as an X Series DAQ unit that features 16 Simultaneous Analog Inputs (AI), 48 Digital I/O (DIO), and 4 Analog Outputs (AO). This combination of inputs and outputs makes it a highly capable unit for various measurement and control tasks.
The Analog Inputs are particularly noteworthy, supporting 16 channels with a resolution of 16 Bits and a high-speed sampling rate of 3.5 MS/s per channel. This level of performance is suitable for capturing high-speed signals with precision.
On the digital front, the device boasts 48 DIO channels, providing ample capacity for interfacing with a wide array of digital devices, sensors, and actuators. The 4 Analog Outputs complement the inputs, enabling precise control over external hardware.
Integrated Signal Conditioning is provided via the SCXI system, enhancing the device’s ability to interface with various sensors by conditioning the signal to a level suitable for measurement. The device is compatible with a range of sensors including strain gauges, thermocouples, thermistors, angular encoders, linear encoders, and RTDs, making it highly versatile in different application scenarios.
For ensuring synchronized operation in complex systems, the Timing and Synchronization capabilities include support for RTSI bus cables (for PCI/PCI Express gadgets), and PXI backplane signals (for PXI gadgets). This feature allows for precise timing and synchronization across multiple devices within a system, essential for accurate measurement and control in
