Description
A 32-channel current excitation module from National Instruments, the SCXI-1581 is intended for use in applications where accurate resistance measurement is necessary. Below is a summary of its salient attributes:
Function:
- offers 32 fixed channels with an excitation current of 100 µA.
Applications:
- Perfect for high-accuracy resistance measurement; especially helpful for sensors such as thermistors and resistance temperature detectors (RTDs).
- can be used in conjunction with the SCXI-1102 module to build an RTD measurement system with a high channel count.
Specifications:
- High accuracy: ±0.05% per channel current source
- Low temperature drift: ±5 ppm/°C maximum
- Screw terminal, BNC connector, and solder pin connection options for flexibility
Software Compatibility:
- utilizes the NI-DAQ driver for measurement and configuration
- Compliant with multiple software environments, including as Measurement Studio, LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and VI Logger (previous iterations of Windows)
Additional Information:
- National Instruments might not actively support the SCXI-1581 anymore, but you can find resources like datasheets and manuals through archived sources.
- Consider contacting secondary vendors for purchasing information as it’s not actively produced by National Instruments.
In general, applications needing accurate low-current excitation for resistance measurements can benefit from the SCXI-1581. If you’re searching for a new module, it could be worthwhile to look into National Instruments’ comparable current products.
