Description
The PXI-6602 by National Instruments is a cutting-edge PXI Timing I/O module distinguished by its versatile functionality and compatibility. This module is identified by three part numbers: 185745H-01, 777557-01, and 185745-01, with the last number also representing the board only kit part number.
It is designed to support a wide range of functions including frequency measurements, encoder position measurements, period measurements, event counting, pulse-train and pulse generation, and pulse-width measurements. This makes the PXI-6602 an ideal solution for engineers requiring precise timing and synchronization in their test and measurement setups.
One of the standout features of the PXI-6602 is its ability to perform three high-speed DMA transfers simultaneously, enhancing the efficiency of data handling in complex systems. The module’s compatibility is broad, supporting TTL/CMOS-compatible digital I/O and incorporating digital debouncing filters, which helps in reducing noise in digital signals.
The module boasts six trigger lines and a resolution of 32 bits, ensuring high precision in timing and control tasks. Data transfer is static, and the device includes eight up/down counters/timers, further emphasizing its utility in a wide range of applications. The ability to measure and source frequency up to 80 MHz underscores its performance capabilities.
An interesting aspect of the PXI-6602 is its compatibility with CompactPCI devices, albeit with limited functionality, which offers flexibility in integrating the module into existing systems. The module allows for prescaling at 8X or 2X on every counter, with the option to deactivate this feature, providing users with control over their measurement precision and speed.
From a software perspective, the PXI-6602 is compatible with NI-DAQmx driver software, LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and Measurement Studio, ensuring seamless integration into a variety of development environments. Its physical dimensions are 6.3 inches x 3.9 inches, making it a compact addition to any PXI system.
