Audio and vibration measurements now on PXI
For the first time on the PXI platform, engineers can make precision audio and vibration measurements - using the National Instruments NI 4472 signal acquisition module
The output of this module scales linearly with the input frequency and can read 0 V for a DC input signal.
The SCC-ICP01 single-channel module for active accelerometers accepts +/-5 V signals and has a 19 kHz 3-pole Bessel low-pass filter for noise and anti-alias filtering.
The module features a 4 mA current source to power ICP compatible sensors.
The dual-channel SCC-RTD01 module accepts 2, 3, and 4-wire platinum RTDs and has a 1 mA excitation source to power RTDs.
Both channels feature a gain of 25 and a 30 Hz low-pass filter to remove noise.
NI also expanded the line of SCC-LP Series modules to include the SCC-LP04, which has noise and anti-alias filtering for general inputs and provides a 1 kHz cut-off frequency.
The SCC-LP Series modules are two-channel, fourth order Butterworth low-pass filter modules with differential inputs that support +/-10 V signals. Request a free brochure from National Instruments ...
