National Instruments 779615-01 Multifunction I/O Device 

National Instruments part number 779615-01 is an identifying part number for the PCI-6230, a Multifunction I/O Module with 8 Analog Input Channels and 4 Analog Output Channels. This device supports a single-channel maximum sampling rate of 250 kS/s with a timing resolution of 50 ns. It uses DC input coupling and offers multiple input ranges: ±0.2 V, ±1 V, ±5 V, and ±10 V. Data transfers are handled through various methods, including DMA (scatter-gather), interrupts, and programmed I/O, providing flexibility and efficiency in data handling. The 779615-01 is a Bank Isolated, Multifunctional Data Acquisition Board from the M Series. 

This device delivers an ideal blend of performance and the safety advantages of isolation, coupled with high-performance amplification, timing, and calibration technologies essential for precise control and measurements. Its bank isolation feature enhances noise rejection, protects against transients, minimizes ground loops, and rejects common-mode voltage, ensuring reliable and accurate operation. Users can achieve update rates of 450, 425, and 400 kS/s per channel when operating with two, three, or four channels, respectively. The 779615-01 supports DC output coupling with an output range of ±10 V. 

This device includes an output FIFO that can handle 8,191 samples, shared among the channels. For edge, semi-period, period, and other counter measurements, the 779615-01 features two 32-bit counters/timers, operating at a frequency of 80 MHz. Additionally, the device is equipped with a 37-pin D-SUB I/O connector and It runs using the NIDAQmx driver software which is programmable with software packages or application development environments (ADEs) such as LabVIEW or LabWindows/CVI. This device weighs 0.24 lb and measures 3.8 x 6.1 in. The recommended operating temperature for this device ranges from 0 to 55 °C.
