Description
The PCIe-6251 is a PC-based Multifunction DAQ (Data Acquisition) device with the part number 192242C-03 (779512-01). This advanced piece of equipment is designed to cater to a wide range of data acquisition needs, making it ideal for various applications in measurement and control.
It features 16 single-ended or 8 differential analog input (AI) channels with a 16-bit AI resolution. This allows for precise data collection, and it is capable of reaching a maximum sample rate per channel of 1.25 MS/s (single) and 1.00 MS/s (multiple), ensuring quick and efficient data processing.
In addition to its impressive input capabilities, the PCIe-6251 also provides 2 analog output (AO) channels with a 16-bit DAC AO resolution. The maximum update rate can reach up to 2.86 MS/s (1 channel) and 2.00 MS/s (2 channels), allowing for fast and reliable output data handling.
The device also includes 24 digital I/O channels and 8 correlated DIO, offering versatile options for digital data management. Furthermore, it supports a wide range of driver software including NI-DAQmx, NI-DAQmx Base, and the Measurement Hardware DDK. However, it is important to note that it is not compatible with Traditional Legacy NI-DAQ.
The PCIe-6251 boasts a PCI Express bandwidth of 250 MB/s per-direction, ensuring high-speed data transfer and processing. For maintenance and accuracy, calibration is recommended every two years, and the device supports self-calibration for convenience.
Its physical dimensions are 4.2 x 6.1 inches, making it compact enough to fit in various setups without compromising on functionality. This multifunction DAQ device is a powerful and versatile tool for professionals in need of reliable and accurate data acquisition capabilities.
