Description
The National Instruments NB-AO-6 Analog Output Board for Macintosh NuBus, part number 180520D-01 (order under 776160-01), falls within the category of Legacy DAQ Devices. This model, NB-AO-6, is designed to be compatible with the NB-DMA2800 for multiple-channel simultaneous waveforms. It supports software compatibility with NI-DAQ driver software for Macintosh, and is programmable with LabVIEW for Macintosh. The NB-AO-6 is part of the NB Series of Macintosh NuBus boards.
It features 6 identical analog output channels with a current output type of 4 to 20 mA current sink to ground. For protection, the board includes short circuit and open circuit protection for current outputs, as well as short circuit to ground protection for voltage outputs. The voltage output types can be either unipolar or bipolar, with voltage output ranges of 0 to 10 V and 0 to 2.5 V.
The board utilizes the PM7645HP D/A converter model, ensuring a DAC resolution of 12 bits for each channel. This technical specification ensures high precision and reliability for users requiring sophisticated analog output capabilities in their Macintosh NuBus systems.
