Low-cost data acquisition options expanded to laptop PC users

23 May 2001 Test & Measurement

National Instruments is offering its lowest cost E Series data acquisition (DAQ) device for PCMCIA. This is a high-performance DAQCard-6024E multifunction I/O device that packs the functions and technologies of NI's full-size, low-cost E Series DAQ devices into the PCMCIA form factor. The device delivers portable DAQ for a wide variety of applications, ranging from physiological monitoring to in-vehicle test applications.

The DAQCard-6024E features accurate, measurement-ready technology that delivers 12 bits of resolution at 200 kSa/s on 16 single-ended or eight differential input channels. The device also features two 12 bit analog outputs, eight TTL digital I/O lines, and two 24 bit counter/timers. A shielded latching connector keeps the card's cable securely attached to the card.

The device ships with NI-DAQ 6.9, the company's high-performance driver software. NI-DAQ is a powerful programming interface that has superior integration with LabVIEW 6i, Measurement Studio, and Microsoft Visual Basic for controlling NI PC-based data acquisition products. For connecting to a variety of sensors, the DAQCard-6024E works seamlessly with National Instruments' portable SCC signal conditioning products.
