Description
The National Instruments SMB-2146 Digital I/O Accessory, with Part Number 781517-01, is a specialized device compatible with the NI-5752 FlexRIO Digitizer Module. It features 2 digital input channels and 16 digital output channels, all of which are single-ended digital signals and do not support analog signals.
This accessory is designed with a VHDCI (68-pin) connector alongside 18 SMB connectors to facilitate connection with various devices and modules. Moreover, it operates without the need for external power, as it is powered directly by the associated module, ensuring ease of use and installation.
Despite weighing approximately 3lb, the SMB-2146 is versatile and robust for various applications. For optimal performance, it is advised to use a SHC68-C68-D3 Cable or another suitable cable assembly for connection purposes. Furthermore, the use of shielded cables is strongly recommended to ensure precision in measurement applications, as unshielded cables may not offer the same level of accuracy and reliability.
