National Instruments PCI-6230 Multifunction DAQ

The National Instruments PCI-6230 (Part Number: 779615-01, 192236A-01) is a Bank Isolated, Multifunctional Data Acquisition Board from the M Series. This device offers an optimum combination of performance and safety benefits of isolation with high-performance amplification, timing, and calibration technologies required for accurate precision control and measurements. The bank isolation capability incorporated in the NI PCI-6230 brings noise rejection, safety from transients, reduced ground loops, as well as common-mode voltage rejection.

This device is an ideal solution for applications in high-voltage and electrical noise rich environments. The NI PCI 6230 DAQ can be used with proximity sensors, control valves, pumps, flow meters, relays, etc. This DAQ board features 8 single-ended or 4 differential analog inputs through 16 bit resolution ADC with ±10 V, ±5 V, and ±1 V, ±0.2 V input range, DC coupling, and 250 KS/s maximum sampling rate at 50 ppm timing accuracy. The NI PCI 6230 features continuous bank isolation up to 60 VDC and up to 1950 VDC channel-to-bus isolation.

This model is designed with four analog output channels backed by 16-bit Digital-to-Analog converters. The maximum achievable update rate per analog output channel is 500 kS/s. The user can achieve 450, 425, and 400 KS/s per channel update rate while operating with two, three, or four channels respectively. The NI PCI-6230 supports DC output coupling and has an output range of ±10 V. The output FIFO incorporated in this device can handle 8,191 and is shared among channels. For the edge, semi-period, period, and other counter measurements, the PCI-6230 has two 32 bit counters/timers with an operating frequency of 80 MHz as well. The device is equipped with a 37-pin D-SUB I/O connector.

The PCI-6230 is run using the NIDAQmx driver software which can be programmed with software packages or application development environments (ADEs) such as LabVIEW or LabWindows/CVI. The NI device weighs 0.24 lb, and measures 3.8 x 6.1 in. in physical dimensions. It has a recommended operating temperature range of 0 to 55 °C.

PCI-6230 Legacy Status has been announced by National Instruments, but will still be available for purchase and repairs by Apex Waves.
