Not recommended for new designs. NI recommends using the NI PCIe-6536B instead.

The National Instruments PCIe-6536 is a high-speed digital I/O board capable of continuously streaming data up to 100 MB/s over the PCI Express bus.

The NI PCIe-6536 features clock rates up to 25 MHz from internal or external sources, selectable voltage levels of 2.5 and 3.3 V (5 V compatible), and per-channel directional control of 32 digital lines. The NI PCIe-6536, based on NI-DAQmx driver software, is compatible with the NI Digital Waveform Editor, so you can interactively create, edit, and import digital waveforms.

The low-cost, high-throughput architecture of the NI PCIe-6536 makes it an ideal solution for interfacing and testing image sensors, display panels, and memory devices. The board is also well suited for other common digital applications such as pattern I/O, handshaking, and change detection.

Since your device does not have direct signal connectivity, you need a connector block to act as an interface between your sensors/signals and your device. A connector block provides easy access to the inputs and outputs of your hardware.
You need a cable to transmit signals between your device and your signal connections on your connector block.
You need software to interface with your hardware and to collect, analyze, present, and store your measurements. This board is compatible with a variety of programming languages, including LabVIEW, C/C++, Visual Basic, and .NET. LabVIEW provides the easiest integration with all of your NI hardware and is recommended to maximize your hardware investment.
