Description
The Part Number 783800-01 refers to a PXI Analog Output module, specifically the model PXIe-6738. This module is designed to provide high-performance analog output capabilities, featuring 32 Analog Outputs. It boasts a Maximum Sampling Rate of 1 MS/s (400 kS/s per channel), ensuring precise and rapid data transmission.
The Resolution of the outputs is 16-bit, providing a high level of accuracy in the analog signals. Users can expect a versatile Output Voltage Range from -10 V to 10 V, accommodating a wide array of signal requirements. Additionally, the module includes 10 Digital I/O Lines and 4 Counters/Timers, enhancing its utility for various applications.
For connectivity, it utilizes a 68-pin VHDCI connector type, ensuring robust and reliable physical connections. The module is supported by NIDAQmx driver software, making it compatible with several Application Development Environments (ADEs) such as LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and Measurement Studio.
Before using the PXIe-6738, it is recommended to allow a Warm-Up Time of 15 minutes to ensure optimal performance. The device requires a Calibration Period that is recommended to be either annually or every two years, maintaining its precision over time. Its lightweight design, weighing only 5.8 oz, and compact dimensions of 6.3 x 3.9 in., make it an ideal choice for setups where space is at a premium.
The device operates within a temperature range of 0 to 55 °C and can be stored in temperatures ranging from -40 to 71 °C. It is designed to withstand an Operating Random Vibration of 0.3 grms (5 to 500 Hz) and a Non-Operating Random Vibration
