PCI-20006M-2 Overview

16-Bit 2 Channel Analog Output Expansion I/O Module

The PCI-20006M-2 adds two analog output channels to any expandable Intelligent Instrumentation board. This module is ideal for signal generation and control applications requiring high resolution. It has two 16-bit digital-to-analog converters (DACs), which can be jumper-programmed for ±5V, 0 to 10V, and ±10V full-scale output.

Features & Benefits

• Dual Channel

• 16-Bit Resolution (1 Part in 65K)

• 0.003% Linearity Error
