Product Description
Product Overview
The PXI-6602 features eight 32-bit counter/timers and up to 32 lines of 5V TTL/CMOS-compatible digital I/O. It is built for applications that require high-resolution timing, frequency measurement, or synchronized position sensing.
Product Parameters
The PXI-6602 is optimized for speed and high-count capacity. Below are the key technical parameters:
| Feature | Specification |
| Counters/Timers | 8 channels, 32-bit resolution |
| Max Source Frequency | 80 MHz |
| Digital I/O (DIO) | Up to 32 lines (8 dedicated, 24 shared with counters) |
| Input/Output Logic | 5V TTL/CMOS |
| FIFO Buffer | 2 samples per counter (optimized for DMA) |
| Bus Interface | PXI (32-bit, 33 MHz) |
| DMA Channels | 3 (Supports high-speed data streaming) |
| Connector | 68-pin female SCSI-II |
Product Advantages
-
High-Resolution Precision: With 32-bit counters, the module can count up to $2^{32}-1$ without overflowing, which is essential for long-duration measurements or high-frequency signals.
-
Advanced Timing Engine: Built on the NI-TIO (Timing and I/O) ASIC, it allows for sophisticated operations like buffered pulse-train generation and two-signal edge separation.
-
DMA Transfer Support: It supports Direct Memory Access, which allows high-speed data transfers to the host PC without taxing the CPU, ensuring system stability during intense tasks.
-
Seamless Synchronization: As a PXI module, it can use the PXI backplane triggers and clocks to synchronize with other DAQ or instrument modules with nanosecond precision.
Key Considerations
-
Signal Integrity: Due to the 80 MHz maximum frequency, it is critical to use high-quality, shielded cables (such as the SH68-68-D1) to prevent crosstalk and signal attenuation.
-
Power Loading: When using the +5V power pin on the connector to power external sensors, ensure the current draw does not exceed the module’s specified limits (typically 1A total).
-
Driver Software: Requires the NI-DAQmx driver. Ensure the version of NI-DAQmx installed supports your specific PXI controller’s operating system.
-
Input Voltage: Ensure input signals do not exceed the 5V TTL limits; applying higher voltages (e.g., 12V or 24V industrial signals) will damage the module without external signal conditioning.
Product Applications
The PXI-6602 is a versatile tool used in several specialized fields:
-
Motion Control Interface: Reading quadrature encoders to determine position, velocity, and acceleration of motors.
-
Frequency & Period Measurement: High-accuracy monitoring of clocks, oscillators, or flow sensors.
-
Pulse-Width Modulation (PWM): Generating precise duty-cycle signals for controlling fans, heaters, or power converters.
-
Event Counting: High-speed counting of physical events (e.g., parts on a conveyor belt or photon detection).
-
Time-of-Flight (ToF): Measuring the interval between a “start” and “stop” trigger in physics or laser experiments.
