National Instruments PXI-6682H

The National Instruments PXI-6682H is a high-performance PXI Timing and Synchronization Module designed to facilitate precise synchronization across PXI systems. This module supports IRIG-B, GPS, and IEEE 1588 protocols, enabling users to generate clock signals and schedule events at specified future times while extending timestamp inputs through a synchronized system time. When installed in slot 2 of a compatible PXI chassis, the PXI-6682H efficiently routes clock triggers and signals with minimal skew, making it ideal for synchronizing multiple devices within a single PXI system or across multiple chassis. With integrated GPS functionality, the module can power a live GPS antenna and process RF signals from satellites, ensuring reliable time reference for synchronization. The device also features six SMB male connectors and one standard RJ-45 Ethernet connector, allowing for versatile connectivity options. It operates within a temperature range of 0 to 55 °C and can handle a non-operating vibration of 2.4 grms. The PXI-6682H is compatible with the NI Sync driver software and can be integrated into various software development environments, including LabVIEW and LabWindows/CVI. This module requires a single 3U CompactPCI, PXI, or PXIe hybrid slot and weighs approximately 220 grams, making it a powerful and compact choice for precision timing and synchronization in industrial applications.
