National Instruments SCC-AI02 manual

USER GUIDE SCC-AI Series Isolated Analog Input Modules The SCC-AI Series isolated analog input modules (SCC-AI XX ) can extract a relativ ely low-amplitude input signal from a high-commo n-mode voltage so the E Series D A Q de vice can measure the input sig nal. They also can amplify and filter the input signal, resulting in hig her measurement res[...]
