Overview

Product overview

Key product information and technical features.

The SCB-68A belongs to NI's shielded connector-block family, providing screw-terminal access inside a shielded enclosure. Device and cable selection must follow NI's accessory compatibility guidance rather than connector pin count alone.

The board supports user-added circuitry but does not supply built-in signal conditioning. Its shielding does not electrically isolate field wiring from the connected DAQ device.

  • Shielded enclosure with screw-terminal signal connections.
  • Breadboard area and through-hole pads for custom circuitry.
  • Onboard temperature sensor for thermocouple cold-junction compensation with appropriate DAQ configuration.
  • DIN rail mounting supported with a separate mounting kit.
