drives the ADC with this amplified voltage. The amo

(the gain), is determined by the analog inp

MIO X Series Device NI-PGIA
Table 4-2 shows how signals are ro
u
ted to the NI-PGIA on MIO X Series
devices.
For differential meas
u
rements, AI 0 and AI 8 are the positive and negative
inp
u
ts of differential analog inp
u
t channel 0. For a complete list of signal
pairs that form differential inp
u
t channels, refer to the
I/O Connector Signal
Descriptions
section of Chapter 3,
Connector and LED Information
.
Caution
The maxim
u
m inp
u
t voltages rating of AI signals with respect to gro
u
nd (and for
signal pairs in differential mode with respect to each other) are listed in the specifications
doc
u
ment for yo
u
r device. Exceeding the maxim
u
m inp
u
t voltage of AI signals distorts the
meas
u
rement res
u
lts. Exceeding the maxim
u
m inp
u
t voltage rating also can damage the
device and the comp
u
ter. NI is
not
liable for any damage res
u
lting from s
u
ch signal
connections.
