Hello,
could someone pls advise me in matter of my NI configuration? I need acquire temperature in range -60 to +85 of electronic integrated circuits by using thermocouple (I quess type K,N or T?)
(I would go for K type, this one: http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/1918816.pdf). Device under test will be placed in climatic chamber. Idea is to get acquired temperature values in celsius degrees for example in .txt file (in order to create graphs and etc).
I have selected:
CHASSIS: cDAQ-9178, CompactDAQ chassis (8 slot USB)
MODULE: NI 9213 16-ch TC, 24-bit C Series module
SYSTEM ACCESSORIES:
Power cord,240V,EuroClass
NI PS-9 Desktop Power Supply, 12 VDC, 1.25 A, 100-240 VAC Input
BTW in near future I will do some kind of automation tests and control programmable devices as Power supply(e.g. TTi), multimeters(e.g. Keithley) and etc. Do you think that cDAQ-9178 chassis would be sufficient also for these purposes?(by just additional purchase of appropriate modules?)
OR
ANOTHER SOLUTION would be use my keithley 2700 multimeter and buy Plug-In Module 7700 with 20channels (http://www.farnell.com/datasheets/1884812.pdf) + buy NI GPIB-USB-HS (http://sine.ni.com/nips/cds/view/p/lang/en/nid/201586) ???
SUMMARY:
Cost in total for NI components: 2 844 $ Vs. Cost in total for Keithley solution: 1 239 $
Or am I completely wrong with those HWs? Please help me because i am completely new in this field for the time being 😃
BTW: I have already LabVIEW software.
Many ThX!!!
