Description
The Part Number 780922-10 refers to a specific model within the category of Single-Board RIO Modules. This model, known as the sbRIO-9870, is a NI 9870E 4-PORT RS232 Serial Module Board-Only (Qty 10). Manufactured by National Instruments, it stands out for its compatibility and efficiency in various applications. The module is identified as a C Series Serial Interface Module, designed to facilitate seamless communication and data transfer.
Equipped with 4 RJ-50 receptacles/ports for RS232 devices, it provides ample connectivity for multiple devices, ensuring a wide range of applications can be supported. Each port comes with a 64 B buffer size, optimizing data handling and processing speeds. The module operates on an External (Vsup) power supply requirement, with a supported voltage range of ±8 V. This specification ensures that it can be integrated into various electrical setups without the need for extensive modifications.
One of the key features of this module is its baud rate capability, which reaches up to 921.6 kbps. This high-speed data transmission capability is essential for applications requiring rapid communication between devices. The module also supports two operation modes: active mode and sleep mode. In active mode, it consumes 0.5 W of power, while in sleep mode, it reduces its power consumption dramatically to only 50 μW, highlighting its energy efficiency.
Lastly, the module’s voltage tolerance levels are notably robust, including a ±25 V receive signal-to-COM, ±13.2 V transmit signal-to-COM, and ±28 V between Vsup. These specifications ensure that the module can operate reliably under varying electrical conditions, making it a versatile choice for a wide range of industrial and research applications.
