Table 1. NI 6528 and PXI-6529 Specifications Overview
Overview and Applications
National Instruments 6528 and PXI-6529 devices are industrial
channel-to-channel isolated digital I/O interfaces for PCI and
PXI. You can use the optically isolated inputs of NI 6528 and
PXI-6529 devices to read the status of sensors, actuators, and logic
devices. NI 6528 devices have 24 solid-state relay outputs to switch
external devices with input currents up to 150 mA. With high current
drive and isolation, NI 6528 and PXI-6529 devices are ideal for a variety
of applications from automotive design, industrial factory automation,
and machine control to aerospace, laboratory research, and biomedical
applications. Industrial digital I/O devices are designed to incorporate
the latest hardware technologies for applications requiring ease of use,
high reliability, and performance. NI 6528 and PXI-6529 devices are
jumper-free and take advantage of NI-DAQmx measurement services
software to speed up application development with features such as
DAQ Assistant, automatic code generation, and high-performance
multithreaded streaming technology.
Hardware
Industrial Feature Set
NI industrial digital I/O devices provide a set of high-reliability features
designed to automate even the most demanding applications.
• Isolation offers an extended voltage range for direct connection
to industrial sensors and actuators
• Programmable power-up states provide safe operation
when connected to pumps/valves/motors/relays
• Digital I/O watchdog timers detect computer or application crashes
and ensure safe recovery
• Change detection triggers your application and performs a read
operation after a digital event with minimal processor usage
• Programmable input filters eliminate glitches/spikes and remove noise
• Industrial certifications from CE, FCC, C-Tick, UL, and VDE ensure EMI
compliance in most regions of the world and certify that the system
is safe to operate
Industrial Digital Input/Output – 60 V, Channel-to-Channel Isolated
digital lines. Using change detection, you can monitor for digital
events with minimal processor usage. No polling is necessary because
the digital I/O module generates an interrupt to automatically wake
up your application.
Using NI-DAQmx software technology, NI 6528 and PXI-6529 devices
notify the software application when an event is detected, causing the
application to automatically perform a read operation. To minimize
the effects of noisy input lines, use programmable input filters in
combination with change detection to eliminate spurious change-
detection events caused by noise or glitches.
Connect Sensors Directly with Isolation
Isolation is a form of built-in signal conditioning that provides an
extended voltage range for direct connection to industrial sensors and
actuators. NI 6528 and PXI-6529 devices provide channel-to-channel
isolation where every channel is physically and electrically separated
from the others and earth ground. Optical isolators separate the high-
voltage front end from the low-voltage back end, breaking ground
loops, improving common-mode voltage rejection, and protecting
computer circuitry from hazardous voltages. Industrial environments
containing machinery and inductive loads require isolation to protect
the electronics from transient voltage spikes and provide greater
common-mode noise rejection.
Eliminate Noise with Programmable
Input Filters
Programmable input filters remove noise, glitches, and spikes on
inputs as well as provide debouncing for digital switches and relays.
These features are important for applications in industrial environments
to prevent false readings caused by noise. You can configure the
programmable input filter for each digital line by setting the filter time.
NI 6528 and PXI-6529 devices block any digital noise, glitch, or spike
that is shorter than half of the specified filter time, preventing invalid
readings and false triggers for change-detection events.
Achieve Glitch-Free Startup with
Programmable Power-Up States
Using programmable power-up states, you can configure the initial
NI 6528 output states in software to ensure glitch-free operation
when connected to industrial actuators such as pumps, valves, motors,
and relays. An NI 6528 holds these output states after receiving power,
so your computer can boot and your software application can begin
running. Programmable power-up states are glitch-free, meaning the
outputs never go through an incorrect state during power up.
You can configure each individual digital line as high-output or
low-output. An NI 6528 stores the settings in onboard nonvolatile
memory and implements the power-up states instantaneously after
power is applied to the device.
Use High-Voltage Triggering
With NI 6528 and PXI-6529 devices, you can route isolated high-voltage
(±60 VDC) signals to the PXI trigger bus or RTSI (Real-Time System
Integration) bus, so you can synchronize between multiple high-voltage
devices without additional circuitry. This feature benefits automotive,
aerospace, and industrial monitoring and control applications needing
high-voltage triggers.
Detect Faults and Recover with Digital
I/O Watchdogs
Digital I/O watchdog timers are an innovative technology that can
detect a variety of fault conditions, such as an application crash, and
automatically respond by setting the outputs to a user-configured safe
state. Watchdogs are important whenever the module is connected to
actuators such as pumps, valves, motors, and relays. An NI 6528
monitors the software application; if the application fails to respond
within a preset time limit, an NI 6528 automatically sets the output
lines to a user-defined safe state. An NI 6528 remains in the watchdog
state until the watchdog timer is disarmed, an NI 6528 is reset, or the
computer is restarted.

Trigger Your Application with
Change Detection
With change detection, you can automatically trigger your software
application to perform a digital read operation upon a digital change
of state. A digital change of state is defined as the rising edge
(0 to 1 transition) or falling edge (1 to 0 transition) on one or more
