Signal Descriptions
Channel Input Signal Connections
The signal terminals for the positive input channels are located in
column C of the connector. The signal terminal for each corresponding
negative input channel is located in column B of the connector. Each
input goes to a separate filter and amplifier that is multiplexed to the
module output buffer. The terminal block temperature sensor output—
connected to pins A3 and A4 (CJSENSOR)—is also filtered and
multiplexed to the module output buffer.
The differential input signal range of a VXI-SC-1102/B/C input channel
is ±10 V/G, where G is the gain selected on the VXI-SC-1102/B/C input
channel. This differential input range is the maximum measurable
voltage difference between the positive and negative channel inputs.
