Our new 561745 and 561725 DAKs have been specifically engineered to support the NI PXIe-4300 Analog Input Module. The 561745 DAK integrates the circuitry contained in National Instruments' TB-4300 Terminal Block (Low Voltage) and the 561725 DAK implements the circuitry contained in the TB-4300B Terminal Block (High Voltage) directly within the DAK form factor.
Both DAKs provide the terminal block functionality while also providing a mass interconnect solution compatible with our popular SCOUT line. Each features both protection resistors and the attenuator functionality.
The SCOUT system is ideally suited to gain maximum benefit from the high performance PXI instruments offered by National Instruments.
Our most recent Direct Access Kits (DAKs) offer an interconnect solution to provide connectivity between our SCOUT system and popular NI adapter modules for FlexRIO. These dedicated PCB solutions for NI FlexRIO include 100 ohm controlled impedance differential pairs to match the high performance of the NI Instruments.
The SCOUT system is ideally suited to gain maximum benefit from the high density PXI switch modules offered by National Instruments. DAKs (Direct Access Kits) provide a straightforward interconnection between National Instruments PXI instruments and SCOUT receiver modules.
By utilizing PCB and flex circuit connection techniques between NI PXI instruments and the SCOUT receiver, unprecedented wiring densities and optimum connectivity performance can be achieved.
We have already developed DAKs for many of the popular PXI instruments on the market today and strive to support all of the latest technologies as they emerge.
