National Instruments PXI-6070E

The National Instruments PXI-6070E is a high-performance multifunction data acquisition (DAQ) device that integrates E Series technology to provide reliable data acquisition solutions across a wide range of applications. This PXI device supports a maximum sampling rate of 1.25 MS/s with 12-bit resolution and offers the flexibility of 16 or 64 single-ended analog input channels. The PXI-6070E is equipped for rapid data streaming, capable of transmitting data to disk at rates up to 1.25 MS/s, depending on the hard drive configuration. It features both analog and digital triggering capabilities and includes two 12-bit analog outputs, two 24-bit counter/timers with 20 MHz operability, and eight digital I/O lines. The device connects via a 68-pin male D-type I/O connector and supports two termination variants: a mass termination option with a shielded connector, and a BNC termination version featuring shielded BNC connectors for analog and auxiliary signals. This device is particularly advantageous for applications requiring portability and quick setup, such as automotive testing or laboratory measurements. The PXI-6070E operates with NI-DAQmx driver software, ensuring compatibility with a variety of application development environments like LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and Measurement Studio. It has a recommended warm-up period of 15 minutes and should be calibrated at least once per year. The PXI-6070E weighs 7.1 ounces and measures 6.3 x 3.9 inches, with an operating temperature range of 0 to 55 °C and a storage temperature range of -20 to 70 °C, supporting non-condensing relative humidity levels from 10 to 90%. Designed to meet electrical safety standards including IEC 61010-1 and UL 61010-1, this module remains available through Apex Waves despite its obsolete status with National Instruments.
