Product Description

The National Instruments NI-9205 C Series Voltage Input Module is offered in several part numbers including 785184-01, 779357-01, 780173-01, and 199015D-01L, each designed to be compatible with NI CompactRIO and CompactDAQ Chassis. This module features 16 differential or 32 single-ended input channels with an analog input resolution of 16 bits, providing precise data acquisition.

Users can benefit from programmable input ranges of ±200 mV, ±1 V, ±5 V, and ±10 V, accommodating a variety of sensor types. The NI-9205 ensures rapid data collection with a maximum sample rate of 250 kS/s per channel and offers robust voltage protection up to 60 Volts to safeguard against signal transients.

For enhanced durability, the module includes transient overvoltage protection capable of withstanding up to 1000 Vrms. Connectivity options vary by part number, featuring either spring terminal or D-Sub connector types, with 250 Vrms channel-to-earth ground isolation for spring terminal versions, and 60 VDC for D-Sub versions. Notably, only the 780173-01 part number is conformal coated, providing additional environmental protection.

The module is driven by the NI-DAQmx software driver, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of development environments. Despite the robust feature set, the NI-9205 maintains a lightweight design, with the spring terminal version weighing 5.7 oz and the D-Sub version slightly lighter at 5.3 oz.
