Description
The PCI-4454 is a dynamic signal acquisition device designed by National Instruments, carrying the part number 186957A-01. This device falls under the category of Legacy DAQ Devices, indicating its significance in the evolution of data acquisition technology.
It is built for compatibility with the PCI bus, ensuring that it can be integrated into a wide range of systems with ease. One of the key features of the PCI-4454 is its support for external triggering, which enhances its functionality and flexibility in various application scenarios.
The device boasts 4 analog single-ended input channels, with a software-configurable input channel configuration. This allows users to adapt the device to their specific needs without the need for complicated hardware modifications. The coupling type for these channels can be set to either AC or DC, thanks to a software-programmable switch, providing further versatility in signal measurement.
The input range of the PCI-4454 is quite generous, supporting up to 20 V (-10V to +10V), coupled with a high resolution of 16 bits. This ensures that the device can capture a wide range of signal strengths with a high level of detail. Its maximum sample rate is 51.2 kS/s, and it supports a bandwidth from DC to 23 kHz.
Employing a delta-sigma converter type, the PCI-4454 is capable of delivering high-quality data conversion, making it suitable for demanding applications. Additionally, its support for self-calibration means that it can maintain accuracy over time, reducing the need for frequent manual calibrations.
This device is particularly well-suited for applications in audio signal processing and analysis, audio frequency measurements and tests, research, speech research, sonar, modal analysis, acoustics research, and vibration analysis. Its versatility and performance make it a valuable tool for professionals in these fields.
Despite its obsolete status as announced by National Instruments, the PCI-4454 remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, ensuring that existing systems can continue to benefit from
