Description
The DAQPad-6052E is a multifunction I/O device manufactured by National Instruments, classified under the category of Legacy DAQ Devices. It is designed with a part number 187149A-01, alongside alternate part numbers including 778535-01, 778535-04, 778535-06, 778536-01, 778536-04, and 778536-06. This device integrates both an Analog to Digital Converter (ADC) and a Digital to Analog Converter (DAC), both of which are 16-bit, ensuring high-resolution data conversion from analog signals to digital form and vice versa.
The DAQPad-6052E supports connectivity via FireWire (IEEE 1394), allowing for rapid data transfer rates and the capability to connect up to 64 devices per computer. This feature is particularly beneficial for complex setups requiring multiple data acquisition devices. It offers a sampling rate of up to 33.3kS/s, which is suitable for a wide range of data acquisition tasks.
Moreover, the device is equipped with 16 Single Ended or 8 Differential Input Channels, providing flexibility in connecting a variety of sensors or signals. It also includes two 24-bit counters/timers, enhancing its utility for applications requiring precise time measurements or pulse generation. The FIFO buffer size is 512 samples, which helps in managing data flow and ensuring smooth operation during high-speed data acquisition.
One of the noteworthy features of the DAQPad-6052E is its software selectable gain options, which include 0.5, 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100. This range allows users to adjust the gain according to their specific application needs, thereby optimizing the accuracy and quality of the acquired data.
