uses a 68-pin SCSI-II type connector rather than the newer 68-pin VHDCI connector found on many later PXI DAQ modules. Verify the module-side connector and cable model before ordering accessories.<\/p>\n<h3>Four Simultaneously Sampled Analog Inputs<\/h3>\n<p>The PXI-6120 provides four independent analog-to-digital converters so that every analog input can be sampled at the same point in time. Unlike multiplexed DAQ devices, it does not sequentially switch a single ADC between channels.<\/p>\n<p>This simultaneous architecture preserves phase and timing relationships between signals. It is valuable when comparing stimulus and response waveforms, measuring propagation delay or analyzing signals from synchronized sensors.<\/p>\n<h3>16-Bit Analog Input Resolution<\/h3>\n<p>Each analog input uses a 16-bit ADC, providing 65,536 theoretical quantization levels across the selected range. Selecting the narrowest suitable input range allows the acquired signal to use more of the available converter resolution.<\/p>\n<p>Actual measurement performance also depends on noise, source impedance, grounding, cabling, calibration and environmental conditions. Shielded cables and differential-style connections are recommended for precision acquisition.<\/p>\n<h3>800 kS\/s per Channel<\/h3>\n<p>All four channels can sample at up to 800 kS\/s per channel. Because the inputs are sampled simultaneously, the complete module can acquire as many as 3.2 million analog samples per second while maintaining alignment between channels.<\/p>\n<p>The sample rate should be selected according to signal bandwidth, required time resolution, acquisition duration and storage capacity. Lower sample rates can be used for longer recordings or signals with more limited bandwidth.<\/p>\n<h3>Wide Input Ranges up to \u00b142 V<\/h3>\n<p>The PXI-6120 provides software-selectable input ranges extending from low-level \u00b1200 mV measurements to signals as large as \u00b142 V. Its wide-voltage capability is particularly useful for automotive and electromechanical test systems.<\/p>\n<p>The \u00b142 V range does not provide galvanic isolation and does not permit the safety ratings to be exceeded. External isolation, attenuation or signal conditioning may be required for high-energy circuits, hazardous voltages and signals with large common-mode potential.<\/p>\n<h3>Pseudodifferential Input Architecture<\/h3>\n<p>The four analog inputs use a pseudodifferential configuration. Each channel measures its input relative to a local reference while providing improved common-mode rejection compared with a basic ground-referenced single-ended connection.<\/p>\n<p>This arrangement helps reduce errors caused by moderate ground-potential differences. The connected signals must still remain within the specified input and common-mode limits.<\/p>\n<h3>Software-Selectable AC and DC Coupling<\/h3>\n<p>Input coupling can be selected through software. DC coupling preserves both the changing waveform and its DC component, while AC coupling blocks the steady DC level and emphasizes dynamic signal content.<\/p>\n<p>AC coupling can improve measurement resolution when a relatively small changing signal is superimposed on a larger DC offset. DC coupling should be selected when the absolute voltage level is part of the required measurement.<\/p>\n<h3>100 kHz Input Filtering<\/h3>\n<p>The analog inputs incorporate filtering intended to restrict high-frequency noise and improve measurement quality for signals within the module\u2019s useful bandwidth. Filtering also helps reduce aliasing from signal content above the selected sampling bandwidth.<\/p>\n<p>The PXI-6120 is appropriate for moderate-bandwidth waveform measurements. Applications requiring substantially higher analog bandwidth should consider a faster S Series or PXI Express simultaneous-sampling module.<\/p>\n<h3>Two 16-Bit Analog Outputs<\/h3>\n<p>The PXI-6120 includes two voltage output channels with 16-bit resolution and a \u00b110 V output range. One channel can update at up to 4 MS\/s, while both channels can operate at up to 2.5 MS\/s per channel.<\/p>\n<p>Analog outputs can generate stimulus waveforms for component testing, actuator simulation and closed-loop experiments. Their timing can be coordinated with analog acquisition and digital I\/O through shared clocks and triggers.<\/p>\n<h3>Synchronized Stimulus and Response Testing<\/h3>\n<p>The combination of simultaneous analog inputs and high-speed analog outputs allows the PXI-6120 to generate a stimulus while measuring the resulting response. This supports frequency-response testing, control-system evaluation and automated component characterization.<\/p>\n<p>Shared timing resources help establish a repeatable relationship between waveform generation and acquisition. Test software can initiate both operations from a common trigger or reference clock.<\/p>\n<h3>Eight Correlated Digital I\/O Lines<\/h3>\n<p>The module provides eight bidirectional TTL\/CMOS-compatible digital lines. These lines can be used as static control signals or correlated with analog input samples and analog output updates.<\/p>\n<p>Correlated digital I\/O is useful for controlling external devices, recording digital status and coordinating test events with acquired analog waveforms. The digital lines are logic-level interfaces and should not be connected directly to industrial voltage signals.<\/p>\n<h3>Two 24-Bit Counter\/Timers<\/h3>\n<p>Two 24-bit counter\/timers support event counting, pulse generation, frequency measurement, period measurement, pulse-width measurement and encoder-related applications.<\/p>\n<p>The counters use an onboard 20 MHz timebase and can route timing signals through available PFI and PXI trigger resources. Counter functions can also be synchronized with other operations in an NI-DAQmx task.<\/p>\n<h3>Analog Triggering<\/h3>\n<p>Analog triggering allows an acquisition to begin when a monitored signal crosses a configured level or satisfies the supported trigger condition. This helps capture transient waveforms without continuously storing unrelated data.<\/p>\n<p>Trigger level, polarity and hysteresis should be configured according to the expected signal amplitude and noise. Excessive noise near the threshold can cause repeated or premature triggers.<\/p>\n<h3>Digital Triggering<\/h3>\n<p>The PXI-6120 also accepts digital start, reference and timing signals through its programmable function interfaces and PXI trigger resources. Digital triggering provides a repeatable way to coordinate acquisition with an external event or other PXI instruments.<\/p>\n<p>Trigger routing can be configured through NI-DAQmx without requiring an external timing cable when compatible modules share the PXI chassis backplane.<\/p>\n<h3>PXI Backplane Synchronization<\/h3>\n<p>The module can use the PXI reference clock and trigger bus to synchronize multiple PXI-6120 modules or coordinate operation with other compatible measurement instruments.<\/p>\n<p>Its phase-locked loop can align the module timing circuitry with the PXI backplane reference. This supports time-correlated measurements across multiple modules and increases the number of simultaneous acquisition channels available in one system.<\/p>\n<h3>Onboard Acquisition Memory<\/h3>\n<p>Onboard memory buffers acquired and generated data before it is transferred across the PXI bus. This helps the module maintain high-speed operation when host-bus transfers are temporarily delayed.<\/p>\n<p>The sustainable acquisition duration depends on the sample rate, number of active channels, transfer performance and host storage system. For continuous high-speed logging, verify that the controller and disk can sustain the required data throughput.<\/p>\n<h3>Typical PXI-6120 Applications<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Automotive electrical-system testing<\/li>\n<li>42 V automotive measurements<\/li>\n<li>Stimulus-response testing<\/li>\n<li>Radar signal acquisition<\/li>\n<li>Sonar measurement<\/li>\n<li>Ultrasonic testing<\/li>\n<li>Control-system validation<\/li>\n<li>Transient waveform capture<\/li>\n<li>Power electronics testing<\/li>\n<li>Electromechanical system testing<\/li>\n<li>Automated production testing<\/li>\n<li>Laboratory data acquisition<\/li>\n<li>Multichannel phase measurement<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Automotive Testing<\/h3>\n<p>The \u00b142 V input capability allows the PXI-6120 to acquire many automotive electrical signals without an external voltage divider. Four simultaneous channels can measure related supply, sensor and actuator waveforms while preserving their timing relationships.<\/p>\n<p>The complete test fixture should still include appropriate current limiting, transient suppression and isolation. Automotive circuits can produce voltage spikes that exceed the module\u2019s normal measurement range.<\/p>\n<h3>Radar, Sonar and Ultrasonic Testing<\/h3>\n<p>Simultaneous analog acquisition is useful for comparing signals from multiple receivers and transducers. The module can record signal timing, amplitude and phase relationships across four synchronized channels.<\/p>\n<p>For ultrasonic stimulus-response systems, the analog outputs can generate a control or reference waveform while the analog inputs acquire conditioned receiver signals. External amplification and protection may be required for transducer excitation.<\/p>\n<h3>Power and Electromechanical Measurements<\/h3>\n<p>The PXI-6120 can simultaneously measure voltage and current-proportional signals in power converters, motors and actuator systems. Synchronized channels make it possible to calculate phase, power and transient response from time-aligned data.<\/p>\n<p>Current measurement requires an appropriate shunt, current transformer or conditioned current sensor. High-voltage power systems require external isolation and measurement accessories rated for the circuit.<\/p>\n<h3>NI-DAQmx Software Support<\/h3>\n<p>The PXI-6120 is supported by the NI-DAQmx driver. NI-DAQmx provides functions for configuring channels, input ranges, coupling, sample clocks, triggers, analog outputs, digital I\/O and counter operations.<\/p>\n<p>The driver supports LabVIEW, LabWindows\/CVI, C\/C++ and compatible .NET development environments. NI Measurement &amp; Automation Explorer can be used to identify the module, configure the system and perform basic self-tests.<\/p>\n<h3>\u0418\u043d\u0442\u0435\u0433\u0440\u0430\u0446\u0438\u044f \u0441\u0438\u0441\u0442\u0435\u043c PXI<\/h3>\n<p>The PXI-6120 installs in a compatible PXI or PXI hybrid slot. It can operate with embedded controllers, remote PXI control systems and other PXI measurement modules.<\/p>\n<p>Before installation, confirm chassis compatibility, available cooling, controller support and NI-DAQmx version. Because this is a discontinued model, compatibility with a current operating system should be checked before selecting it for a new system.<\/p>\n<h3>PXI-6120 Lifecycle and Replacement<\/h3>\n<p>The PXI-6120 is discontinued and is currently listed by NI with limited support. It remains useful for maintaining existing test systems whose software, wiring and calibration procedures were developed around the module.<\/p>\n<p>NI identifies the <a href=\"https:\/\/pxisource.com\/ru\/product\/pxie-6386\/\">PXIe-6386<\/a>, part number 785926-01, as the recommended replacement. Replacement is not necessarily a direct drop-in process because the newer module has different channel counts, performance, connector requirements and software behavior.<\/p>\n<h3>PXI-6120 Troubleshooting<\/h3>\n<h4>The PXI-6120 is not detected in NI MAX<\/h4>\n<p>Confirm that the module is fully seated in a compatible PXI slot. Check chassis power, controller communication and the installed NI-DAQmx version. Restart the system and refresh the hardware list in NI MAX.<\/p>\n<h4>Analog input values are inaccurate<\/h4>\n<p>Verify the configured input range, coupling mode and channel wiring. Check source impedance, cable shielding, common-mode voltage and the module\u2019s calibration status. Allow the system to reach a stable operating temperature before precision measurements.<\/p>\n<h4>The acquired waveform is clipped<\/h4>\n<p>Select a wider input range or reduce the signal amplitude. Confirm that the signal and any transient overshoot remain within the selected range and absolute input limits.<\/p>\n<h4>Channels appear to have a timing offset<\/h4>\n<p>Confirm that all signals are connected to analog inputs on the simultaneous-sampling module and are acquired in the same NI-DAQmx task. Check external signal conditioning for unequal propagation delay between channels.<\/p>\n<h4>The analog output waveform is distorted<\/h4>\n<p>Check the output load, generation rate, cable capacitance and waveform frequency. Make sure the connected load does not exceed the analog output current capability and allow appropriate settling time for large voltage transitions.<\/p>\n<h4>The acquisition reports a buffer overflow<\/h4>\n<p>Reduce the sample rate, shorten the acquisition, increase the host buffer or improve the data-transfer and disk-writing process. Avoid performing slow display or file operations in the acquisition loop.<\/p>\n<h4>Analog triggering is unreliable<\/h4>\n<p>Review the trigger level, slope and hysteresis. Check whether signal noise repeatedly crosses the configured threshold. Increase hysteresis or condition the trigger signal when necessary.<\/p>\n<h4>The digital lines do not control a 24 V device<\/h4>\n<p>The digital I\/O lines use TTL\/CMOS logic levels and cannot directly switch 24 V industrial loads. Add a compatible external buffer, relay driver or isolated digital interface.<\/p>\n<h4>Multiple PXI modules are not synchronized<\/h4>\n<p>Verify that all modules use the intended PXI reference clock and trigger route. Configure timing in NI-DAQmx and check that no other task or module reserves the selected trigger line.<\/p>\n<h3>PXI-6120 Comparison with Similar DAQ Modules<\/h3>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th>\u041c\u043e\u0434\u0435\u043b\u044c<\/th>\n<th>Analog Inputs<\/th>\n<th>\u0420\u0430\u0437\u0440\u0435\u0448\u0435\u043d\u0438\u0435<\/th>\n<th>Maximum Sample Rate<\/th>\n<th>Primary Advantage<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\u041f\u0425\u0418-6115<\/td>\n<td>4 simultaneous<\/td>\n<td>12 bits<\/td>\n<td>10 MS\/s\/ch<\/td>\n<td>Faster acquisition for higher-bandwidth waveforms<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>PXI-6120<\/td>\n<td>4 simultaneous<\/td>\n<td>16 bits<\/td>\n<td>800 kS\/s\/ch<\/td>\n<td>Wide \u00b142 V ranges and integrated analog outputs<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>PXI-6122<\/td>\n<td>4 simultaneous<\/td>\n<td>16 bits<\/td>\n<td>500 kS\/s\/ch<\/td>\n<td>Higher-accuracy moderate-speed acquisition<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>PXI-6123<\/td>\n<td>8 simultaneous<\/td>\n<td>16 bits<\/td>\n<td>500 kS\/s\/ch<\/td>\n<td>Additional simultaneous analog input channels<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\u041f\u0425\u0418-6132<\/td>\n<td>4 simultaneous<\/td>\n<td>14 bits<\/td>\n<td>2.5 MS\/s\/ch<\/td>\n<td>Higher sample rate with four channels<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>\u041f\u0425\u0418-6143<\/td>\n<td>8 simultaneous<\/td>\n<td>16 bits<\/td>\n<td>250 \u043a\u0412\u044b\u0431\/\u0441\/\u043a\u0430\u043d<\/td>\n<td>Eight high-resolution simultaneous inputs<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>PXIe-6386<\/td>\n<td>8 simultaneous<\/td>\n<td>16 bits<\/td>\n<td>14 MS\/s\/ch<\/td>\n<td>Modern PXI Express replacement with substantially higher performance<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h3>PXI-6120 vs PXI-6122<\/h3>\n<p>\u0417\u0435\u043c\u043b\u044f <a href=\"https:\/\/pxisource.com\/ru\/product\/%d0%bf%d0%ba%d1%81%d0%b8-6122\/\">PXI-6122<\/a> also provides four 16-bit simultaneous analog inputs, but its maximum sample rate is 500 kS\/s per channel.

The specified input and common-mode limits must still be observed.<\/p>\n<h4>Does the PXI-6120 support AC coupling?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes. Its analog inputs support software-selectable AC or DC coupling.<\/p>\n<h4>Does the PXI-6120 provide analog outputs?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes. It provides two 16-bit, \u00b110 V analog outputs. One channel can update at up to 4 MS\/s, or both can operate at up to 2.5 MS\/s per channel.<\/p>\n<h4>How many digital I\/O lines are available?<\/h4>\n<p>The module provides eight bidirectional TTL\/CMOS-compatible digital I\/O lines that can be correlated with analog operations.<\/p>\n<h4>How many counters does the PXI-6120 include?<\/h4>\n<p>It includes two 24-bit counter\/timers with a 20 MHz timebase.<\/p>\n<h4>Which connector does the PXI-6120 use?<\/h4>\n<p>The front panel has one 68-pin male SCSI-II type connector. Verify cable compatibility because this differs from the VHDCI connector used by many newer modules.<\/p>\n<h4>Which software controls the PXI-6120?<\/h4>\n<p>The module is controlled through NI-DAQmx and can be integrated with LabVIEW, LabWindows\/CVI, C\/C++ and compatible .NET environments.<\/p>\n<h4>Is the PXI-6120 discontinued?<\/h4>\n<p>Yes. NI lists the PXI-6120 as discontinued with limited support. It may still be available from existing inventory or the secondary market.<\/p>\n<h4>What is the recommended replacement for the PXI-6120?<\/h4>\n<p>NI recommends the PXIe-6386, part number 785926-01. Review mechanical, electrical and software differences before migrating an existing system.<\/p>\n<h3>Request a Quote for the PXI-6120<\/h3>\n<p>Contact us for current availability, condition, lead time and project pricing for the <strong>PXI-6120 4-Channel 16-Bit Simultaneous-Sampling Multifunction DAQ Module<\/strong>.
