National Instruments PXIe-4322 PXI Analog Output Module

The PXIe-4322 (Part Number: 782878-01) is a 16-Bit, 8-Channel Analog Output Module from National Instruments. This module comes with exceptional operational capabilities. The NI PXIe-4322 module implements integrated signal conditioning. This module also offers a procedure for channel to channel isolation, which further enhances its features and performance. The device can also combine the operations of multiple devices. It includes signal conditioning and digital to analog converters. The type of the DAC is R-2R. The PXIe-4322 Analog Output Module comes with a built-in protection mechanism to safeguard the equipment against damage from overvoltage and short circuit currents. The maximum value of overvoltage that it can bear is ±120 volts.

The National Instruments PXIe-4322 Analog Output Module offers an update rate with a maximum value of 250 kS per second per channel. The device has the capability to both source and sink the current, which makes it suitable for critical industrial applications. This module offers high voltage and output currents along with the isolation schemes. This feature enables the user to implement the module in requirements involving automotive applications. The NI PXIe-4322 module has a standard warm-up time of 15 minutes, which helps achieve the desired accuracy. Also, the device should be calibrated at least once a year.

The PXIe-4322 Analog Output Module has timing accuracy of 50 ppm of the sample rate. The timing resolution is 10 nanoseconds. The output FIFO buffer capacity is 8,191 samples. It is shared among all the channels that are being used at a given time. It also offers different AO waveform modes, such as non-periodic and periodic waveforms. The periodic waveforms are regenerated either from the FIFO or host buffer.

The PXIe-4322 is run using the NIDAQmx driver software which is compatible with application development environments (ADEs) such as LabVIEW or LabWindows/CVI.

The PXIe-4322 weighs 5.7 oz, and measures 6.3 x 3.9 in. in physical dimensions. The NI device has recommended operating and storage temperature ranges of 0 °C to 55 °C and -40 °C to 71 °C respectively, non-condensing operating and storage humidity ranges of 10% to 90% and 5% to 95% respectively.

The PXIe-4322 is available to be calibrated. While the recommended calibration period for individual parts varies, most parts should be calibrated either annually or every two years to ensure accuracy. If you need the PXIe-4322 calibrated, Apex Waves provides options. We offer high-quality NIST accredited calibrations through a 3rd party, with an average turnaround time of 1 to 2 weeks. When you order the PXIe-4322 with us, you can request basic (unaccredited) in-house calibration that will calibrate the part to the manufacturer specifications prior to being shipped.
