National Instruments PXI-6289 PXI Multifunction I/O Module

The National Instruments PXI-6289 is a PXI Multifunction I/O Module with 4 Analog Output, 48 Digital I/O, and 32 Analog Input channels, Equipped with 18 Bits of resolution and a 625 kS/s maximum sample rate, this model offers two 32-bit counter/timers, analog triggering, and digital triggering. The NI PXI-6289 is known for its low cost, reliable DAQ capability and can be utilized in a broad range of applications in research, laboratory automation, design validation, etc. With this module, the user can add high-voltage measurement capability and sensors to a device by using SCXI or SCC signal conditioning modules. The PXI-6289 has two-part numbers; the 779639-01 has a PXI hybrid bus connector and the 779123-01 has a PXI bus connector. The device has a recommended warm-up time of 15 minutes, and should be externally calibrated at least once in 2 years.

 The NI PXI-6289 M Series DAQ is offered with a configuration utility and NI-DAQmx drivers. Thus, the user can easily configure this module. As far as its analog input characteristics are concerned, this module features 16 differential or 32 single-ended channels and 500 kS/s sample rate while operating in multichannel mode. In addition, it has 50 ns timing resolution, 50 ppm timing accuracy, and DC input coupling.

The NI PXI-6289 operates with >10 GΩ AI+ to AI GND and >10 GΩ AI- to AI GND input impedance in parallel with 100 pF. For data transfers, this model supports DMA (scatter-gather), programmed I/O and interrupts. The NI PXI-6289 M Series DAQ comes with integrated overvoltage protection for all sense and analog input channels, set at ±25 V for up to eight AI pins. This Multifunction I/O Module supports various triggering functions, including Pause Trigger, Sample Clock, start trigger, reference trigger, etc. It is equipped with 2 68-pin VHDCI I/O connectors.

The standard 3U PXI device weighs 8.4 oz. It has recommended operating and storage temperature ranges of 0 ºC to 55 ºC and -20 ºC to 70 ºC respectively, a non-condensing relative humidity range of 10% RH to 90% RH, operating and non-operating random vibrations of 0.3 grms and 2.4 grms respectively–all at a frequency range of 5 to 500 Hz.
