Description
The PCI-6259 is a PC-based multifunction DAQ with a part number of 779072-01. This device is designed to cater to a wide range of applications requiring high-speed data acquisition and processing. It supports 32 single-ended or 16 differential analog inputs and has 48 digital I/O channels, making it highly versatile for various measurement tasks.
For output, the PCI-6259 features 4 analog outputs with a 16-bit resolution and a maximum sampling rate of 2.86 MS/s. This allows for precise control signals to be generated based on the acquired data. The device can achieve a maximum sampling rate of 1.25 MS/s for single-channel operations and 1 MS/s for multi-channel operations, ensuring efficient data capture even in demanding scenarios.
The input voltage range for the PCI-6259 is from +0.1 V to +10V, accommodating a variety of signal levels. With input impedance values of >10 GΩ (power on) and 820 Ω (power off), the device ensures minimal loading on the measured circuit. It boasts a low noise level and excellent signal integrity with a crosstalk of -75 dB.
For timing-sensitive applications, the PCI-6259 provides an output terminal timing resolution of 50 ns and an output terminal overdrive current of 20 mA. Initial power on might experience an output glitch of 1.5 V for 1.5 seconds, which is typical for devices of this nature.
The device is equipped with 2 counters/timers with a 32-bit resolution and an operational frequency of up to 80 MHz, along with a frequency generator. The base clocks of 100 kHz and 10 MHz offer flexibility in timing and frequency measurements. Supported by NI-DAQmx driver software, the PCI-6259 ensures easy integration with software applications for data logging, analysis, and presentation.
