Product Description
The National Instruments PCI-GPIB/LP GPIB Instrument Control Device is designed to be fully compatible with IEEE 488.2, ensuring a broad range of instrumentation control possibilities.
It boasts an impressive transfer rate of more than 1.5 MB/s with IEEE 488.1 standards and accelerates to over 7.7 MB/s using the HS488 protocol, providing fast data throughput for demanding applications.
The device features a universal PCI connector, making it versatile and operable in both 5 V and 3.3 V signal environments.
Equipped with TNT family ASICs and a PCI-MITE interface, it adheres to the PCI Specification version 2.1, ensuring reliable integration with the PCI bus.
Installation and configuration are streamlined with its fully software-configurable plug-and-play capability, simplifying setup processes.
This GPIB Instrument Control Device efficiently performs essential GPIB functions such as Listener, Controller, and Talker, as defined by IEEE 488 standards, while also supporting the high-speed HS488 protocol.
Connection to GPIB systems is facilitated through a standard 24-pin IEEE 488 connector, and developers can take advantage of the comprehensive suite of included development tools to create customized applications.
Operating with low power consumption of approximately 600 mA from the +5 VDC rail, the device does not require an additional power supply, drawing the necessary power directly from the host computer.
The National Instruments PCI-GPIB/LP is a testament to efficient design, providing high performance in a compact and versatile form factor suitable for modern workstations and PCs with compatible PCI expansion slots.
