Overview

Product overview

Key product information and technical features.

The PCI-6704 belongs to NI's 670x software-timed output family. Its voltage and current outputs can operate independently at the same time, allowing one board to provide both types of analog setpoint.

Signal connections use a 68-pin connector. NI recommends the SH68-68-D1 shielded cable and SCB-68 connector block for NI 670x devices.

  • Separate voltage and current output channels support mixed analog output requirements.
  • Current outputs source current without an external excitation supply.
  • Analog outputs support independent, user-defined power-on values.
  • Each digital line can be configured independently as an input or output.

FAQ

Product-specific questions

Product-specific answers based on available technical information.

Is the PCI-6704 intended for hardware-timed waveform generation?

No. It is a static, software-timed analog output device.

How does the PCI-6704 differ from the PCI-6703?

Both have 16 voltage outputs and eight digital I/O lines. The PCI-6704 adds 16 current outputs.

Do programmed power-on values apply immediately?

Not immediately. Voltage outputs reach full accuracy within 1 second of power-on board reset and may float beforehand. Current outputs reach full accuracy within 7 seconds.
