Description
The PXI-6711 is a sophisticated PXI Analog Output module designed for a variety of applications. It carries part numbers 185860C-02 and 777794-01, indicating its specific model variants. This device is adept in handling Proportional Integral Derivative (PID) Controllers, Low-Speed Arbitrary Waveform Generators, and Function Generators, making it a versatile instrument for diverse operational needs.
It supports multiple waveform types including Square, Sine, Saw-tooth, Stimulus-Response, Power Supply Control, High-Speed Deterministic Control, and Sensor/Signal Simulation. This capability ensures wide applicability in testing and simulation environments. The unit is equipped with eight 5 V TTL/CMOS digital I/O lines, which are fully configurable, allowing for flexible integration into various systems.
Furthermore, the PXI-6711 features two 24 bit, 20 MHz counter/timers and supports triggering and external timing, enhancing its precision and connectivity options. Its D/A Converters (DAC) provide an internal reference of 10 V and accept an external reference within ±11 V, with the default reference value selection set to the internal reference for ease of use.
The digital I/O configuration is notably flexible, with each line independently configurable as input or output, and the default state set to high impedance at system startup and reset. This ensures safe and adaptable operation. The module utilizes a DAQ-STC timing signal interface and supports the RTSI bus for interconnection of timing signals, further broadening its application scope.
An additional feature is the Programmable Function Input (PFI), which is available for external equipment connection, offering even more flexibility for complex setups. The PXI-6711 entered its maintenance phase on March 31, 2022, and remains available with Apex Waves, ensuring continued support and availability for this advanced module.
