Product Summary Summary

  • This Amplifier (not A/D) module provides 6 differential voltage input channels (Ch#1/2...#11/12)40 , each of which are independently software programmable with Windows software that support the direct connection to many common sensor types
  • This module does not contain an A/D converter, and therefore internally routes measured voltage to an i43x A/D module anywhere in card cage. At least one i43x must be installed in order to measure a voltage with this module.
  • Each channel provides several independent analog low pass filter options: 0.006KHz / 2poles, 4KHz / 2poles, or FullBandwidth
  • Voltage input range on each channel is independently software programmable to one of: ±5mV, ±10mV, ±20mV, ±40mV, ±80mV, ±300mV, ±600mV, ±1.2V, ±2.5V, ±5V, 0 to 40mV, 0 to 80mV, 0 to 2.5V, 0 to 5V
  • Each channel provides the following software programmable parameters: A/D Signal-Averaging-Per-Point (0 ... 100mSec)3 , Sample-Rate (samples-per-second-per-channel)17 , Analog Low Pass Filter (0.006KHz / 2poles, 4KHz / 2poles, or FullBandwidth)2 , Digital IIR Filter (LowPass, HighPass, BandPass, or BandStop)55 , Voltage Measurement Range (±5mV...±5V)1 , and Sensor Type13

  • Each input channel passes through it's own amplifier with a software selectable voltage gain of 1 or 64, and optional analog low pass filter. After this treatment, these are made available at Hd44 connector pins #17..#22 for purposes of end user monitoring, in addition to possible internal digitizing by A/D25.
  • Excitation power (+3.3V ±0.2V, <220mA, 37mA per sensor max) is provided for sensors, along with other End User Power voltages. This 3.3V, which is referenced to instruNet Ground, is automatically readback by A/D when calculating sensor values.
  • The 20mA sink digital I/O port consists of 4 individual TTL-compatible lines (Ch#25...#28), each of which can be configured as: digital input bit, digital output bit, control output, clock output43 . When configured as an input, a channel can be used to sense a digital high (2.1 to 30 Volts) or digital low (-10V to .65Volts). When configured as an output, a channel can be set high (e.g. >2V) or low (e.g. <0.8V). These I/O pins are short-circuit protected against high voltages up to 32.0V and down to -16.0V.

Description 6di Voltage Input Channels This Amplifier (not A/D) module provides 6 differential voltage input channels (Ch#1/2...#11/12), each of which are independently software programmable with Windows software that support the direct connection to many common sensor types
Absolute Accuracy Specified Error components (i.e. INL, DNL, linearity, noise, temperature drift66 , time stability) are summed and specified as "Absolute Accuracy" with the following supported sensors (click for accuracy and maximum sample rate): VoltageThermocoupleThermistorRTDLoad CellStrain GagePotentiometerCurrentResistanceAccelerometer
Voltage Ranges ±5mV ... ±5V,
0 to 40mV ... 0 to 5V
Voltage input range on each channel is independently software programmable to one of: ±5mV, ±10mV, ±20mV, ±40mV, ±80mV, ±300mV, ±600mV, ±1.2V, ±2.5V, ±5V, 0 to 40mV, 0 to 80mV, 0 to 2.5V, 0 to 5V
Internal A/D (none) This module does not contain an A/D converter, and therefore internally routes measured voltage to an i43x A/D module anywhere in card cage. At least one i43x must be installed in order to measure a voltage with this module.
Sensors Direct Connect Each of the 6 differential channels support the direct connection to the following sensor types (click for Wiring Diagram and Setup Instructions): VoltageThermocoupleThermistorRTDLoad CellStrain GagePotentiometerCurrentResistanceAccelerometer
Channel Amplifiers Software Programmable Each channel provides the following software programmable parameters: A/D Signal-Averaging-Per-Point (0 ... 100mSec)3 , Sample-Rate (samples-per-second-per-channel)17 , Analog Low Pass Filter (0.006KHz / 2poles, 4KHz / 2poles, or FullBandwidth)2 , Digital IIR Filter (LowPass, HighPass, BandPass, or BandStop)55 , Voltage Measurement Range (±5mV...±5V)1 , and Sensor Type13
Wiring Differential Only Single-ended (SE) wiring involves measuring the voltage between the input pin and instruNet Ground; whereas Differential (DI) wiring involves measuring the voltage between two input pins
Protected Voltage -18 to +18V Short any combination of voltage input channels to external -18 to +18V power source (i.e. capable of high current), instruNet power on or off, any duration, without damage
Analog Low Pass Filter 0.006KHz / 2poles,
4KHz / 2poles,
or FullBandwidth
Each channel provides several independent analog low pass filter options. "FullBandwidth" refers to no filter, which involves running the channel at it's full bandwidth as notes in the Voltage Accuracy table
RFI Filter 124 KHz RFI filter RFI filter is a low pass filter that rejects high frequencies that could cause small measurement errors if left unfiltered
Digital Filter LowPass, HighPass, BandPass, or BandStop Each channel provides optional digital IIR lowpass, highpass, bandpass and bandstop filters with independent software programmable cut-off frequency, minimum dB stopband attenuation, maximum dB passband attenuation, and filter type (e.g. Elliptic, Chebyshev B, Chebyshev S, and Butterworth). Number of poles/zeros (i.e. "filter order") is programmable between 2 and 3255 .
Maximum Sample Rate17 166Ks/sec/aggregate Digitize70 at a maximum sample rate of 166K sample/sec for 1 channel on largest voltage input range. More channels at same voltage input range involves slower rates, e.g. 83Ks/sec per channel for 2 channels, 41Ks/sec/ch for 4 channels, and 20Ks/sec/ch for 8 channels. For a details on maximum sample rate and bandwidth with different voltage input ranges, sensor types, and a/d averaging61 ; see absolute accuracy specification tables below (e.g. Voltage Accuracy). Things that decrease High Speed I/O sample rate: longer computer to instruNet cable, i330 optical-isolator. Sample rate is set accurate to 50 ppm (e.g. user specifies 20000 s/sec yet system actually digitizes at 20001 s/sec). Minimum sample rate is 0.015 samples/sec/ch.
Sensor Excitation Included Excitation power (+3.3V ±0.2V, <220mA, 37mA per sensor max) is provided for sensors, along with other End User Power voltages. This 3.3V, which is referenced to instruNet Ground, is automatically readback by A/D when calculating sensor values.

 

Electrical Specifications, Analog Voltage Input, iNet-423

 

Parameter Specifications19 Notes
Common Mode Voltage -5 to +5V All voltage input pins must be driven with a voltage between -5 and +5V, with respect to instruNet ground. instruNet ground = instruNet chassis = earth ground via power supply 3rd prong
Crosstalk < -80dB typ Crosstalk from one channel to another depends on sample rate and frequency of applied signal, and is typically < -80dB; i.e. -80dB = 20 * log (1 / 10000). For example, one can apply a 10Hz 10Vpp sinewave to Ch1 on the ±5Vrange, apply 0 Volts DC to Ch3 on the ±2.5Vrange, digitize both at the maximum sample rate, and see < 1mVpp sinewave on Ch3, in a typical case. The amplitude of this sinewave would decrease with slower sample rates, and increase with higher sinewave frequencies.
Input Coupling DC Measure constant DC voltage or dynamic AC waveform with absolute voltage accuracy
Input Impedance 100MΩ Internal 100MΩ resistor (5% accuracy) between input pin and instruNet ground reduces fluctuating measurements when input pin is left unconnected
Current Pump None Input pin connects to internal amplifier IC (not multiplexor), and therefore does not pump current when switching between channels
Input leakage current 1.0 nA max at 37°C This is a small current that flows out the voltage input pin and into the end user circuit. It has little effect unless measuring small voltages (e.g. expecting accuracy better than ±100uV) with a high source impedance (e.g. > 2K Ω). Maximum leakage is 1.0 nA at 37°C, and 0.5 nA at 25°C.
Input Circuit RFI filter +
Instrumentation Amplifier
Voltage input pins connect directly to internal instrumentation amplifier IC (AD8221ar), after passing through an RFI filter
Common Mode Rejection Ratio ≥ 110dB on ≤ ±80mV range
≥ 80dB on > ±80mV range
CMRR is the amount of rejection of a common signal that is present on both inputs of a differential measurement. Theoretically, it should not be measured because the differential measurement looks at the voltage between two pins; however small internal imbalances cause a small error, which is specified here with a DC to 60Hz common mode signal.
Calibration Software Control instruNet hardware is calibrated66 when the system is reset (i.e. press RESET button, load .prf configuration file, or start instruNet software), and when the system is software calibrated (i.e. press CALIBRATE button, issue software calibrate command, or set up software to calibrate every X minutes59 ).

Voltage Specification Conditions, iNet-423
  • The iNet-423 module supports quantity 6 Voltage devices wired Differential (not SE).
  • Absolute Accuracy is specified as a percentage of measured value PLUS a fixed offset. It is the sum of the following errors components, each in their worst case (we are conservative): Intergal Nonlinearity (INL), Differential Nonlinearity (DNL), system noise (ground input, digitize, and see noise), gain/offset temperature drift, gain/offset time stability drift, gain/offset initial offset error, 1.0nA max leakage current (at 37°C) times 50Ω user source impedance error, and voltage reference temperature/time drift 66 . Noise offset error is modeled as 3 times the Noise RMS value (99.7%). Absolute Accuracy is the same as Maximum Worst Case error. For Typical error, divide maximum by 2.
  • Absolute accuracy is shown with both a gain and offset component, where the offset error is independent of the input voltage, and the gain error is porportional to the the input. For example, if one measures 2Volts and the absolute accuracy specification is ±(1% + 3mV), then one could expect ±(1% * 2V + 3mV) = ±23mV accuracy.
  • Calibration: These specifications assume 1 year since Factory Calibration, instruNet hardware ambient temperature is between 13 and 33 °C, and instruNet hardware temperature changed 1°C since its last self-calibration 59 .

Thermocouple Specification Conditions, iNet-423
  • The iNet-423 module supports quantity 6 Thermocouple devices wired Differential (not SE).
  • Absolute Accuracy is specified as a percentage of measured value PLUS a fixed offset. It is the sum of the following errors components, each in their worst case (we are conservative): voltage measurement errors as described above, cold junction compensation (supplied automatically by instrunet) error, polynomial linearization error, 0.2°C instrunet screw terminal temperature change since last autocalibration. Absolute Accuracy does Not include errors from the actual Thermocouple device. Absolute Accuracy is the same as Maximum Worst Case error. For Typical error, divide maximum by 2.
  • These specifications assume signal averaging per point is No Integ for all rows3 .
  • These specifications assume analog low pass filter is set to 0.006 or 4 KHz for all rows2 .
  • Measurement of thermocouples Requires that an i51x Wiring Box be attached to the i4xx Module, and that the thermocouple leads are attached directly to the i51x screw terminals (for automatic Cold Junction Compensation).
  • The measured thermocouple temperature is a function of the instruNet hardware screw terminal temperature and the voltage measured across the thermocouple. Therefore, an additional temperature measurement error of 1°C occurs for each 1°C change of the instruNet screw terminal temperature since the last instruNet auto-calibration (where it measures screw terminal temperature) 59 . For example, if the instruNet hardware auto-calibrates when it's screw terminals are at 23°C, and they then heat up 3°C before another auto-calibration, then all thermcouple measurements will return a temperature that is 3°C higher than expected. One can program the instruNet to auto-calibrate once every 1 to 1000 minutes.
 
  • These specifications assume the thermocouple device is grounded at the instruNet (e.g. the end user connects an external wire between the i51x Vin Minus (Vin-) and GND screw terminals).
  • Calibration: These specifications assume 1 year since Factory Calibration, instruNet hardware ambient temperature is between 13 and 33 °C 59 .

Current Specification Conditions, iNet-423
  • The iNet-423 module supports quantity 6 Current devices wired Differential (not SE).
  • Absolute Accuracy is specified as a percentage of measured value PLUS a fixed offset. It is the sum of the following errors components, each in their worst case (we are conservative): voltage measurement errors as described above, readback of excitation voltage error, external shunt resistor self heating error, external shunt resistor initial accuracy error, instruNet input impedance variation error, 1.0nA max leakage current (at 37°C) times user source impedance error. Absolute Accuracy is the same as Maximum Worst Case error. For Typical error, divide maximum by 2.
  • Absolute accuracy is shown with both a gain and offset component, where the offset error is independent of the input voltage, and the gain error is porportional to the the input. For example, if one measures 2Volts and the absolute accuracy specification is ±(1% + 3mV), then one could expect ±(1% * 2V + 3mV) = ±23mV accuracy.
  • The end user must supply one external shunt resistor per channel (i.e. this resistor is not included with i4xx or i51x products).
  • instruNet hardware measures the voltage across an external current shunt resistor. Both sides of this resistor must be within ±5 Volts of instruNet GND at all times.
 
  • Calibration: These specifications assume 1 year since Factory Calibration, instruNet hardware ambient temperature is between 13 and 33 °C, and instruNet hardware temperature changed 1°C since its last self-calibration 59 .

  • The end user must supply one external shunt resistor per channel (i.e. this resistor is not included with i4xx or i51x products).
  • instruNet provides a fixed 3.3V excitation voltage which is accurately readback in order to calculate Ω.
  • These specifications assume an i51x Wiring Box is attached to the i4xx Module, and that the device leads are attached to the i51x screw terminals (for accurate readback of 3.3Vref). The i51x can be attached directly to the i4xx front panel; or a cable can be placed between the i4xx and i51x wiring box (e.g. ≤ 5meters, 44 wire, point-to-point) without degradation of accuracy.
 
  • Calibration: These specifications assume 1 year since Factory Calibration, instruNet hardware ambient temperature is between 13 and 33 °C, and instruNet hardware temperature changed 1°C since its last self-calibration 59 .
