National Instruments DAQCard-5102 Oscilloscope/Digitizer

The DAQCard-5102 is an Oscilloscope/Digitizer designed for the PC manufactured by National Instruments. The NI DAQCard-5102 comes from the family of DAQScope devices. These devices are designed based on the type of bus interfaces/slots they can be used with. The DAQCard-5102 is developed for the PCMCIA bus interface. Standard features of the DAQScope-5102 family include 2 input channels, 8 bits resolution, 1 analog and 2 digital triggers, 15 MHz input bandwidth, and more. The NI-Scope driver is required for the NI DAQCard-5102. The DAQCard-5102 is compatible with Measurement Studio, LabWindows, and LabVIEW application software on operating systems like Windows NT/2000/XP. The DAQCard-5102 is also compatible with Visual Basic and C/C++.

This Oscilloscope has a real-time sampling rate of range 20 MS/s to 1 kS/s. There is also a random interleaved sampling available in the DAQCard-5102. The DAQCard-5102 has 662 ksamples memory depth and software-selectable AC/DC coupling. The DAQCard-5102 can trigger analog channels with the hysteresis, software-selectable level, and slope. This Oscilloscope additionally has asynchronous pulse-train creation. The DAQCard-5102 contains two digital triggers. The NI DAQCard-5102 is compatible with the standard TTL/CMOS digital trigger types.

This Oscilloscope is perfect for computer-based portable field test. Applications such as power supply testing, high-speed waveform capture, transmission line testing, electronic testing, and various others are effortless with this oscilloscope. The DAQCard-5102 Oscilloscope needs a warm-up time of about 15 minutes as recommended by National Instruments. The power consumption for the DAQCard-5102 is 5 VDC voltage and 260 mA typical current.
