National Instruments 778701-01 Analog Output Device 

The part number 778701-01 from National Instruments is the identifying part number for the PCI-6723 Analog Output Device. This output module features 32 output channels each having a resolution of 13 bits and an update rate of 800 kilo samples per second making it suitable for quick processing. The outputs of this module have a voltage range of ±10 V allowing this module to generate a mix of signals with varying amplitude. To generate a smooth output signal this module uses the double buffered digital to analog converters. 

The 778701-01 has an output impedance of 0.1Ω maximum and can provide a maximum driving current of ±5 mA. This device has an accuracy of ±0.0377% of reading + 7.010 mV, with a temperature drift of 0.0005% of reading per degrees Celsius. The relative accuracy is ±2.0 LSB at max, and the differential nonlinearity is ±0.9 LSB max, to help ensure 13-bit monotonicity. 

The 778701-01 has a slew rate of 0.7 V/μs which is the amount of time it takes for the output to react to the change in the input. The module has a signal settling time of 45 μs with a maximum time being 55 μs. At mid-scale transition, this output module can experience a glitch energy of 400 mV for 2 μs and a channel-to-channel glitch of 100 mV for 1.2 μs. This device has an external reference input range of ± 11 V with an overvoltage protection of ± 27 V when operating on 12 Volts. 

The 778701-01 has 8 TTL/CMOS compatible digital I/O lines which can be used for controlling and performing specific signaling tasks. It also features two 24-bit timers or counters as well as one scaler to help provide clock signals and edge detection control capabilities. This module can be operated using 3.3 Volts DC while drawing a current of 300 mA, it can also be operated on 5 volts while consuming 3 Amperes of current. This module has a sleek and compact design with dimensions of 17.4 cm × 9.8 cm making it easy to install and portable.
