Description
The PC-based Multifunction DAQ, model USB-6251, carries the part number 194021C-03 and is manufactured by National Instruments. It is designed to accommodate a variety of connector types, including Screw Terminal, BNC, and Mass Terminal, providing flexibility in connection options.
This device is capable of handling either 8 differential or 16 single-ended analog input channels, offering a versatile solution for various data acquisition needs. The sampling rate reaches up to 1.25 MS/s for a single channel and 1.00 MS/s when multiple channels are utilized, ensuring rapid data capture. The input range is quite broad, allowing for measurements of ±1 V, ±2 V, ±5 V, ±10 V, ±0.1 V, ±0.2 V, ±0.5 V, which accommodates a wide range of signal levels.
The input impedance of the device is impressively high at 10 GΩ, minimizing the load on the circuit being measured. A 30-minute warm-up time is required for the device to stabilize and provide accurate measurements. To maintain its precision, calibration is recommended at least once every 2 years.
Additionally, the USB-6251 features 2 analog output channels with an output update rate of 2.86 MS/s for a single channel and 2.00 MS/s for two channels. The output range of ±5 V and ±10 V offers flexibility for various applications, ensuring this device meets a broad spectrum of user requirements for precision data acquisition and control.
