across the input range. So, for an input range of 0 to 10 V, the voltage of
each code of a 16-bit ADC is
Some E Series devices support both unipolar and bipolar input ranges. A
unipolar input range means that the input voltage range is between 0 and
V
ref
, where V
ref
is a positive reference voltage. A bipolar input range means
that the input voltage range is between –V
ref
and V
ref
.
The NI-PGIA applies a different gain setting to the AI signal depending on
the input range. Gain refers to the factor by which the NI-PGIA multiplies
(amplifies) the input signal before sending it to the ADC. For example, for
the input range 0 to 100 mV, the NI-PGIA applies a gain of 100 to the
signal; for an input range of 0 to 5 V, the NI-PGIA applies a gain of 2.
Choose an input range that matches the expected input range of your signal.
A large input range can accommodate a large signal variation, but reduces
the voltage resolution. Choosing a smaller input range improves the voltage
resolution, but may result in the input signal going out of range.
For more information about programming these settings, refer to the
NI-DAQmx Help
or the
LabVIEW 8.x Help
.
Tables 2-1, 2-2, and 2-3 show the input ranges and resolutions supported
by each E Series device.
