Description
“`html
The PCIe-6251 is a PC-based Multifunction DAQ device designed to meet a wide range of data acquisition needs. The part number for this device is 192242D-03L, although it is important to note that the original description lists 779512-01 as the part number, so please verify before proceeding.
This device boasts a significant number of analog inputs, offering 16 AI (Single-Ended) or 8 Differential inputs with a 16-bit resolution. It is capable of a maximum sample rate of 1.25 MS/s (Single Channel) and 1.00 MS/s (Multiple Channels) for analog inputs. In addition, it provides 2 analog outputs with a 16-bit DAC resolution, supporting a max update rate of 2.86 MS/s (1 Channel) and 2.00 MS/s (2 Channels).
The device is also equipped with 24 digital I/O and 8 correlated DIO, enhancing its versatility in various applications. The PCI Express bandwidth is rated at 250 MB/s per direction, ensuring fast and efficient data transfer.
Regular calibration is recommended every 2 years to maintain accuracy and performance. The PCIe-6251 is relatively lightweight at 5.7 oz. and has compact dimensions of 4.2 x 6.1 inches, making it easy to integrate into various setups.
It is compatible with a range of software including NI-DAQmx, NI-DAQmx Base, and Measurement Hardware DDK. However, it is not compatible with Traditional Legacy NI-DAQ software, which is an important consideration for potential users.
