Description
The part number 180520-01, also known under the alternate part number 776160-01, falls into the category of Legacy DAQ Devices. This particular model, designated NB-AO-6, is described as CCA, NB-AO-6. It is compatible with Macintosh NuBus systems, indicating its specific design for use with Macintosh computers equipped with NuBus slots.
Manufactured by National Instruments, this device supports software including the NI-DAQ driver for Macintosh and LabVIEW for Macintosh. It belongs to the NB Series of products. The device features 6 Analog Output Channels, providing a versatile range of output options for different applications.
The current output capabilities of this device are 4 to 20 mA current sink to ground, which includes protection against short and open circuits. Additionally, it offers an output type that includes both Current (with short and open circuit protection) and Unipolar or Bipolar Voltage (with short circuit to ground protection). Voltage ranges supported by this device include 0 to 10 V and 0 to 2.5 V.
Featuring a 12 bits, PM7645HP D/A DAC resolution, the device ensures precise data conversion. The throughput capacity is 350 kHz (max for 1 channel) and 58 kHz (max for all 6 channels), allowing for efficient data processing. It utilizes a 50-pin male ribbon-cable I/O connector for connectivity.
Notably, the calibration feature of this device includes a 2.5 VDC signal for internal 10V reference calibration, along with Low time and temperature coefficients, incorporating Chopper-stabilizing and flying-capacitor techniques for enhanced accuracy and stability. It is important to note that jumper settings have No impact on calibration, simplifying
