National Instruments cFP-AI-102 Analog Voltage Input Module

The cFP-AI-102 (Part number: 777318-102) is an Analog Voltage Input Module for use with the Compact FieldPoint from National Instruments. This model has eight built-in analog input voltage channels with a different voltage range for each input channel. These channels come with the common reference of 0 – 20, 0 – 60, 0 – 120, ± 20, ± 60, and ± 120. It also offers the amazing ADC resolution of 12 bits. The National Instruments cFP-AI-102 Analog Voltage Input Module implements an overvoltage protection scheme, which allows the module to withstand transient voltage up to 2300 volts for inter-module communication bus and the I/O channels.

The National Instruments cFP-AI-102 Analog Voltage Input Module comes with the hot plug-and-play option. The rating for isolation voltage has the RMS value of 250 volts. The update rate on all channels is 360 Hz or 2.8 milliseconds. The effective resolution for input voltage ranges from 15 mV to 125 mV. The module also comes with the special field point terminal base FP-TB-x, which allows the user to mount the cFP-AI-102 module. The built-in ADC enables successive approximation capabilities. The cFP-AI-102 also has physical indicators to depict the operational status of the module.

The National Instruments cFP-AI-102 Analog Voltage Input Module is a lightweight instrument, weighing around 115 grams. The National Instruments cFP-AI-102 has a high input impedance of one mega-ohm. The instrument offers an extremely low input noise of 7 mV + 1 LSB peak-to-peak. This module also offers an input signal bandwidth of 170 Hz.
