National Instruments USB-6361 Multifunction I/O Device
The NI USB-6361 (Part Numbers: 782256-01, 781442-01, 782255-01) belongs to the X Series of National Instruments. This series offers numerous instruments for Data Acquisition with varying specifications. It is equipped with 16 single-ended or 8 differential analog input channels, and 2 analog output channels. The DAQ USB 6361 device includes 4 counters. These counters are used for general purposes and provide high resolution measurements. The value of this resolution is 32-bits. These counters perform measurements in different modes. Edge counting is a part of these measurements. Pulse and pulse width are also performed under these counters. The three NI USB-6361 part numbers differ in their front connector types. Part number 782256-01 has a VHDCI front connector, part number 781442-01 has screw terminal front connectors, and part number 782255-01 has BNC front connectors.
The counters of the USB 6361 NI also provide measurements in semi-period and period modes. The NI USB-6361 X Series DAQ Device also offers position measurements for the counters/timers. The position measurements include X1, X2, and X4 type measurements. These measurements also encode with Channel Z. This encoding is quadrature in nature. The position measurements of this device also include another type of encoding. This is called Two Pulse encoding. The general counters of this device offer many output applications. These applications include the division of frequency, equivalent sampling of time, and pulse train. This pulse comes with active updates.
The National Instruments USB-6361 Multifunction I/O Device has different values for the base clocks, which are a part of the counters//timers. These base clocks come with different values. The maximum value of the frequency of these clocks is 100 MHz. The minimum value is 100 kHz. There are different input options for these counters/timers such as Gate, Source, and Aux. The options of the routing for inputs include Analog Trigger and Internal Signals. The Mass termination model of the device weighs 2.1 oz., and measures 7.3 x 6.8 x 1.4 in. in physical dimensions. The screw terminal model weighs 1.8 oz., with the physical dimensions: 10.4 x 6.8 x 1.4 in. The BNC model weighs 5 oz., and measures 8.0 x 7.3 x 2.7 in. in physical dimensions.
