Data Sheet
most popular item(s) |
National Instruments recommends M Series DAQ and NI-DAQmx driver software for new applications. Quadruple your resolution, increase sampling rates 30 times, and increase your accuracy with the 18-bit, 625 kS/s PCI-6281.
Add sensor and high-voltage measurement capability to your E Series device with SCC or SCXI signal conditioning. The National Instruments 6011E (MIO-16XE-50) and 6012E (AI-16XE-50) families use E Series technology to deliver high-performance, reliable data acquisition capabilities to meet a wide range of application requirements. You get up to 20 kS/s, 16-bit performance on 16 single-ended analog inputs. Depending on your type of hard drive, these boards can stream to disk at rates up to 20 kS/s.
Complete your DAQ system with NI signal conditioning to measure virtually any sensor and voltage.
