Description
The NI-9208 is a product of National Instruments, designed as part of the C Series Analog Input category. This module is versatile, offering various part numbers to cater to different needs: the 785041-01 which comes with a Spring Terminal and is not conformal coated, the 780968-01 featuring a D-Sub connector also not conformal coated, and the 780968-02, which is similar to the 780968-01 but with a conformal coating for additional protection.
Connectivity is provided through either a Spring Terminal or a 37-pin D-SUB connector, depending on the specific part number of the module. When it comes to safety and isolation, the 785041-01 offers 250 Vrms channel-to-earth ground isolation, whereas the other two part numbers, 780968-01 and 780968-02, offer 60 VDC channel-to-earth ground isolation.
One of the distinct features of the NI-9208 is its conformal coating available for the part number 780968-02, enhancing its durability and resistance to harsh environments. This module is compatible with CompactDAQ and CompactRIO systems, making it a flexible solution for a variety of measurement and automation applications.
With 16 analog input channels, the NI-9208 boasts a high channel density, perfect for applications requiring multiple data acquisition points. Each channel supports a 24-bit resolution with a Delta-Sigma ADC type, ensuring high accuracy and precision in measurements. The module operates in a scanned sampling mode and has an input impedance of 85 Ω.
The maximum sample rate of the NI-9208 is 500 S/s, which allows for effective data acquisition across all channels. This blend of features makes the NI-9208 a powerful and adaptable choice for engineers and scientists looking to capture high-quality analog data in their CompactDAQ or CompactRIO systems.
