Description
The NI-9203 is a highly versatile C Series Analog Input module, coming with part numbers 779516-01, 783731-01, and 779516-02. This module is designed to provide eight single-ended analog inputs with a high resolution of 16 bits, making it suitable for a wide range of measurement applications. It is capable of achieving a maximum sample rate of 200 kS/s, allowing for rapid data acquisition.
The input range of the NI-9203 is from -20 mA to 20 mA, ensuring compatibility with a broad spectrum of sensors and signals. Furthermore, it boasts an isolation rating of 250 Vrms, channel-to-ground, which enhances safety and signal integrity by minimizing potential electrical interference. Additionally, the module is designed with overvoltage protection of ±30 V per channel, safeguarding the hardware from unexpected voltage spikes.
Users have the flexibility to connect to the NI-9203 using various connector types, including Screw Terminal, Spring Terminal, and Conformal Coated Screw Terminal, catering to different environmental and application requirements. When it comes to power consumption, the module is highly efficient, consuming 399 mW during active operations and merely 5 mW in sleep mode.
The module’s minimum conversion time is 5.2 μs when used with an R Series Expansion Chassis, ensuring swift data processing. It demonstrates outstanding accuracy with a gain error of ±0.04% and an offset error of ±0.02%, both specified at a standard temperature of 25 °C (with a tolerance of ±5 °C).
Designed to operate within a wide temperature range of –40 to 70 °C, the NI-9203 is suitable for use in various environmental conditions, ensuring reliability and performance consistency. Compatibility with software is extensive, including support for NI-DAQmx 9.2, LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and programming languages such as C/C++, C#, and Visual Basic .NET. For configuration, the module utilizes the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) tool, simplifying setup and customization for specific application needs.
