The National Instruments PCI-6722 delivers low-cost analog outputs to meet a wide range of application requirements. It provides eight analog output channels with speeds of 182 kS/s per channel, 13-bit resolution, and digital triggering. This board also features eight digital I/O and two 24-bit counter timers. The board uses the RTSI bus to synchronize with additional data acquisition, motion and vision products, so users can create custom measurement solutions to test innovative designs. The NI PCI-6722 is ideal for applications such as stimulus-response, signal simulation, waveform generation, and actuator stimulation. It works with the Analog Waveform Editor software to facilitate the creation of complex waveforms. Using this software, you can create new waveforms using more than 20 built-in waveform primitives or formula/equation entry.
