DATA ACQUISITION DEVICE

The PCI-6036E offers 16-bit synchronized input and output, which makes it an ideal low cost option for stimulus response. The data acquisition device has 16 single-ended (or 8 differential), 16-bit 1 analog inputs that sample at a maximum of 200 kS/s, two 16-bit analog outputs, eight digital I/O lines, and two 24-bit counter/timers. With its pretrigger and postrigger modes, the device can acquire data before and after a digital trigger occurs. Like all E Series devices, the device features the Real-Time System Integration Bus (RTSI) for multiple device synchronization and ships with a calibration certificate that guarantees the device performs at the specified accuracy.

All E Series devices ship with NI-DAQ driver software, which includes a configuration utility that simplifies device setup and use. In addition, E Series DAQ devices interface to LabVIEW and Measurement Studio development environments, as well as the new VI Logger configuration-based software for quick and easy data logging. From accurate temperature measurements in a laboratory to high-resolution, synchronized stimulus/response testing, E Series DAQ devices solve applications for a wide variety of industries.

The PCI-6036E is available with prices starting at $995.
