Low-Cost Digital Multimeters for PCI and PCI Express - National Instruments

National Instruments introduced new low-cost 6½-digit digital multimeters (DMMs) for PCI/PCI Express. The PCIe-4065 DMM and the PCI-4065 DMM offer measurements of DC or AC voltage and current,  diode and resistance measurement. The features are ideal for laboratories, educational, and measurement facilities. The new DMMs complement the NI 407x series of 6½-digit and 7½-digit FlexDMM devices ideal for higher-performance measurement.

With the new NI 4065 DMMs, designers can take advantage of the wide availability of PCI and PCI Express slots found in desktop computers, industrial PCs, to take DMM measurements in any environment. With the NI-DMM Soft Front Panel and DMM/Switch Express VI software, engineers can either mimic benchtop DMM displays or build high-channel-count data-logging systems in seconds using NI SignalExpress.

With ±300 VDC/Vrms of isolation, current measurements up to 3 A and 2- or 4-wire resistance measurements, NI 4065 DMMs offer a complete multimeter solution for basic 6½-digit measurement needs. For automated test systems, NI 4065 DMMs are also compatible with NI LabVIEW, NI TestStand, Measurement Studio, LabWindows/CVI.
