Description
The National Instruments USB-6361 Multifunction I/O Device belongs to the highly versatile X Series lineup, catering to a broad spectrum of data acquisition and control applications. This device features different models, including the 782256-01 (VHDCI), 781442-01 (Screw Terminal), and 782255-01 (BNC), each tailored to meet specific connectivity needs.
It is equipped with 16 single-ended or 8 differential analog input channels and 2 analog output channels, making it highly adaptable for various signal processing tasks. Furthermore, the device boasts 4 (32-bit high resolution) counters that support a variety of measurement modes such as Edge Counting, Pulse, Pulse Width, Semi-Period, Period, Position Measurements (X1, X2, X4, Channel Z encoding, Two Pulse encoding), enabling precise time and frequency measurements.
The USB-6361 is designed for complex output applications, including Frequency Division, Time-Equivalent Sampling, and Pulse Train with Active Updates, offering flexibility in generating patterns and signal modulation. With a base clock frequency ranging from 100 MHz (Maximum) to 100 kHz (Minimum), this device ensures high-speed operation and accurate timing.
Its counter/timer input options include Gate, Source, and Aux, alongside analog trigger and internal signals input routing options, providing extensive control over signal processing and data acquisition tasks.
The dimensions and weight of the USB-6361 vary with the model: the Mass Termination Model measures 7.3 x 6.8 x 1.4 in and weighs 2.1 oz; the Screw Terminal Model is 10.4 x 6.8 x 1.4 in in size and 1.8 oz in
