National Instruments 780117-01 USB Multifunction I/O Device
The National Instruments 780117-01, also known as the USB-6221, is a USB-connected M Series multifunction data acquisition device designed for measurement, testing, and control applications. It features BNC connections for quick and secure connections to sensors and other equipment, making it particularly convenient for laboratory and test environments. This model is configured for use with standard 120 V AC power in the United States.
The 780117-01 provides 16 analog input channels with 16-bit resolution and sampling rates of up to 250 kS/s. It supports input ranges from ±200 mV to ±10 V, allowing it to accommodate a variety of signal levels. The device also includes two analog output channels, 24 digital I/O lines, and two 32-bit counters/timers. Digital I/O and triggering capabilities can be used to coordinate analog and digital measurements, as well as for applications involving timing and control.
The BNC connections provide a convenient way to connect sensors, instruments, and other external signals without requiring custom cables. For applications requiring additional signal conditioning, the 780117-01 can be paired with compatible SCC or SCXI modules. These modules can provide functions such as sensor excitation and high-voltage signal measurement, expanding the types of sensors and signals the system can handle.
The USB-6221 is suitable for a wide range of applications, including laboratory automation, education and research, design verification, manufacturing tests, process monitoring, and long-term data logging. Its USB 2.0 interface provides straightforward plug-and-play connectivity, allowing the device to be deployed quickly with a desktop or laptop computer.
NI-DAQmx software is provided for device configuration and programming. It simplifies tasks such as configuring channels, setting measurement ranges, scaling signals, and managing signal connections. The software also allows developers to use a consistent programming interface across compatible National Instruments hardware, helping reduce development time when building measurement and automated test systems.
With its combination of high-channel-count analog measurement, analog outputs, digital I/O, counter/timer functions, flexible input ranges, and convenient BNC connectivity, the 780117-01 is a versatile solution for engineers and researchers who need a compact and reliable data acquisition system. Its 0 °C to 45 °C operating temperature range makes it suitable for typical laboratory, benchtop, and controlled industrial environments.
