National Instruments PXI-6528

The National Instruments PXI-6528 (Part Number: 778543-01) is a robust PXI Digital I/O Module designed for industrial and laboratory applications, providing 48 channels with 24 optically isolated digital inputs and 24 solid-state relay outputs, inclusive of channel-to-channel isolation. This cost-effective module supports programmable power-up states, enabling seamless high-voltage switching and isolation. The PXI-6528 is fully software configurable, eliminating the need for jumper settings and allowing for efficient integration into various systems through the National Instruments NI-DAQ driver software, which includes a comprehensive suite of virtual instruments (VIs) and functions compatible with software environments such as LabVIEW and LabWindows™.

Equipped with a 100-pin keyed female SCSI connector, the module features an input voltage range of -60 VDC to +60 VDC with a maximum input current of 3.0 mA per channel. The integrated change detection capability allows for real-time monitoring and interrupts in response to input changes, enhancing its functionality in dynamic environments. The PXI-6528 adheres to PCI Local Bus and PXI hardware standards, enabling automatic resource allocation for optimal performance. With a recommended operating temperature range of 0 to 55 °C, and a storage range of -20 to 70 °C, this module measures 6.3 x 3.9 inches and weighs 4.6 ounces. A typical power requirement of 400 mA at +3.3 VDC and 250 mA at +5 VDC ensures efficient operation. The PXI-6528 is backed by a three-year warranty, and user documentation is readily available for download. For pricing, please contact a sales representative for a quote.
