Low-cost data acquisition boards deliver simultaneous-sampling rates up to 3MS/s on desktop computers
National Instruments has announced four new simultaneous-sampling S-series data acquisition (Daq) devices for the PCI bus, raising the performance of PC-based instrumentation with simultaneous-sampling rates up to 3MS/s The NI PCI-6133, NI PCI-6132, NI PCI-6123 and NI PCI-6122 boards offer high-density, low-cost options ideal for general-purpose data acquisition and automated test, ultrasonics, ballistics, acoustics, high-energy physics and radar applications

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
Massive online sensors and automation resource
Engineers and scientists now can join an online community of experts, NI Developer Zone, to help them design and implement measurement and automation systems.
In addition to the 3MS/s sampling rates offered in the PCI-6133 and PCI-6132, all four boards deliver NI S-series Daq features, including improved throughput per channel and accuracy at low costs.
The dedicated A/D converter per channel architecture provides a much higher aggregate sampling rate compared to traditional multiplexed data acquisition devices.
The PCI-6133 and PCI-6132 boards also include eight and four channels of simultaneous sampling, respectively; four bits of resolution; four signal input ranges; analogue triggering; eight hardware-timed digital I/O (DIO) lines and two counter/timers.
The PCI-6123 and PCI-6122 boards include eight and four channels of simultaneous sampling at rates of 500kS/s, respectively; 16 bits of resolution; four signal input ranges; analogue triggering; eight hardware-timed DIO lines and two counter/timers.
With more advanced signal conditioning connectivity, engineers can now create an inexpensive transient recorder, downconverter digitiser or high-speed strain measurement device with a typical PC.
With lower costs and easier-to-use programming interfaces, these devices replace many traditional VXI, Camac and boxed instruments.
Each of the four new S-series Daq boards seamlessly integrates with National Instruments software including NI-DaqMX, SignalExpress, the Labview graphical development environment, VI Logger data-logging software, the Labview sound and vibration toolkit and the Labview signal processing toolkit.
