National Instruments PCI-6034E

The National Instruments PCI-6034E is a Multifunction Data Acquisition (DAQ) device designed for high-speed information logging and control applications. This affordable member of the E Series offers 16 single-ended or 8 differential analog input channels, each featuring a 16-bit resolution. With a maximum sampling rate of 200 kS/s, the PCI-6034E supports input voltage ranges of ±11 V relative to ground, making it suitable for high-voltage signal measurements when combined with appropriate NI signal conditioning. The analog input signals include ACH<0..15>, ASENSE, and AIGND, with routing dependent on the data signal source and channel configuration. The device is equipped with eight digital I/O lines, which can be independently programmed for input or output. At system startup and reset, these digital I/O ports operate in high-impedance mode. The DAQ features local connections for up/down control to general-purpose counters 0 and 1 via DIO6 and DIO7, facilitating integrated control capabilities. Additionally, the PCI-6034E utilizes the RTSI bus for interconnecting timing signals and employs Programmable Function Input (PFI) pins for external device interfacing. The device is designed with a floating ground reference, ensuring isolation from the building ground system. Engineered for durability, the PCI-6034E has a compact form factor of 6.9 x 4.2 inches and weighs 5.3 ounces. It operates optimally within a temperature range of 0 to 55 °C and can be stored in environments ranging from -20 to 70 °C. Calibration is recommended annually, while a warm-up period of 15 minutes is suggested for accurate operation. This model includes a 68-pin male SCSI-II type I/O connector and is backed by a three-year warranty. For further details, the user manual and maintenance documentation are available for download.
