Description
The USB-6251 is a PC-based Multifunction DAQ device identified by the part number 194929C-04. This device is designed to cater to a wide range of data acquisition and control applications. It stands out due to its MASS TERMINATION feature which simplifies connectivity and setup.
The USB-6251 supports various connector types including Screw Terminal, BNC, and Mass Termination, offering flexibility in connection options. It boasts 8 differential or 16 single-ended analog input channels, ensuring versatility in signal acquisition. The device is capable of a sampling rate up to 1.25 MS/s for a single channel and 1.00 MS/s when multiple channels are being used simultaneously.
With an extensive input range of ±1 V, ±2 V, ±5 V, ±10 V, ±0.1 V, ±0.2 V, ±0.5 V, it can accommodate a wide variety of signal levels. The working voltage is specified at ±11 V (signal and common mode), and the input impedance is a robust 10 GΩ (on/off). A warm-up time of 30 minutes is required for the device to stabilize and operate accurately.
It’s recommended that the device undergoes calibration at least once in 2 years to maintain its accuracy and reliability. Additionally, the USB-6251 provides 2 analog output channels, with an output update rate of 2.86 MS/s for 1 channel and 2.00 MS/s for 2 channels. This feature allows for precise control signals to be generated, making it a comprehensive solution for data acquisition and control applications.
