Safety Guidelines for Hazardous Voltages
If hazardous voltages are connected to the module, take the following
precautions. A hazardous voltage is a voltage greater than 42.4 Vpk or
60 VDC to earth ground.
Caution Ensure that hazardous voltage wiring is performed only by qualified personnel
adhering to local electrical standards.
Caution Do not mix hazardous voltage circuits and human-accessible circuits on the same
module.
Caution Make sure that devices and circuits connected to the module are properly
insulated from human contact.

Wiring the NI USB-9234
The NI USB-9234 has four BNC connectors that provide connections to
BNC connector to which you can connect a signal source. You can also
enable excitation current on a per-channel basis to connect Integrated
Electronic Piezoelectric (IEPE) sensors. The center pin of the connector,
AI+, provides the DC signal connection. The shell of the connector, AI–,
provides the excitation return path and AC signal ground reference. Refer
to Figure 6 for the connector assignments for each channel.

Connecting Signal Sources to the NI USB-9234
You can connect ground-referenced or floating signal sensors to the
NI USB-9234. To avoid picking up ground noise, use a floating
connection. To further minimize ground noise, prevent the metal shells of
If you make a ground-referenced connection between the signal source and
common-mode range to ensure proper operation of the NI USB-9234. The
AI– shell is protected against accidental contact with overvoltages within
the overvoltage protection range. Refer to the Specifications section for
more information about operating voltages and overvoltage protection.

to the NI USB-9234.

The NI USB-9234 can also provide an IEPE excitation current for each
channel to measure ground referenced or floating IEPE sensors. Typical
IEPE sensors have a case that is electrically isolated from the IEPE
electronics, so connecting the sensor to the NI USB-9234 results in a
floating connection even though the case of the sensor is grounded.

NI USB-9234 Circuitry
The NI USB-9234 analog input channels are referenced to chassis ground
through a 50 Ω resistor. To minimize ground noise, make sure that the
chassis ground is connected to earth ground. Each channel is protected
from overvoltages. You can configure the NI USB-9234 for AC or DC
coupling for each channel. You can turn the IEPE excitation current on or
off in AC-coupled mode (in software). IEPE current is not available in
DC-coupled mode. The input signal on each channel is buffered,
conditioned, and then sampled by a 24-bit, Delta-Sigma ADC.

Figure 9. Input Circuitry for One Channel
The NI USB-9234 uses common-mode bias current to bias the
current-limiting diodes when IEPE current is turned off. When using
grounded signal sources, this current causes an error that is dependent on
the AI– lead impedance. This error is approximately 50 ppm of range and
15 ppm of reading per Ω of AI– impedance. The common-mode bias
current causes an error only with grounded sources and is not an issue with
floating signal sources. For best accuracy, use a floating connection or use
low-impedance leads when connecting grounded signal sources.

Understanding NI USB-9234 Filtering
The NI USB-9234 uses a combination of analog and digital filtering
to provide an accurate representation of in-band signals while rejecting
out-of-band signals. The filters discriminate between signals based on the
frequency range, or bandwidth, of the signal. The three important
bandwidths to consider are the passband, the stopband, and the alias-free
bandwidth.
The NI USB-9234 represents signals within the passband as quantified
primarily by passband flatness and phase nonlinearity. The filters reject
frequencies within the stopband as much as possible, as quantified by
stopband rejection. All signals that appear in the alias-free bandwidth are
either unaliased signals or signals that have been filtered by at least the
amount of the stopband rejection.
Passband
The signals within the passband have frequency-dependent gain or
attenuation. The small amount of variation in gain with frequency is called
the passband flatness. The digital filters of the NI USB-9234 adjust the
frequency range of the passband to match the data rate. Therefore, the
amount of gain or attenuation at a given frequency depends on the data rate.
Figure 11 shows typical passband flatness for 51.2 kS/s data rate.

Stopband
The filter significantly attenuates all signals above the stopband frequency.
The primary goal of the filter is to prevent aliasing. Therefore, the stopband
frequency scales precisely with the data rate. The stopband rejection is the
minimum amount of attenuation applied by the filter to all signals with
frequencies within the stopband.
Alias-Free Bandwidth
Any signal that appears in the alias-free bandwidth of the NI USB-9234 is
not an aliased artifact of signals at a higher frequency. The alias-free
bandwidth is defined by the ability of the filter to reject frequencies above
the stopband frequency, and it is equal to the data rate minus the stopband
frequency.
Understanding NI USB-9234 Data Rates
The frequency of a master timebase (fM) controls the data rate (fs) of the
NI USB-9234. The NI USB-9234 includes an internal master timebase
with a frequency of 13.1072 MHz, but the module also can accept an
external master timebase or export its own master timebase. Refer to the
software help for information about configuring the master timebase source
for the NI USB-9234.
The following equation provides the available data rates of the
NI USB-9234:
(fM) ÷ 256
------------------------
fs =
n
where n is any integer from 1 to 31.
The data rate must remain within the data range. Refer to the Specifications
section for more information about the data rate range. When using the
internal master timebase of 13.1072 MHz, the result is data rates of
51.2 kS/s, 25.6 kS/s, 17.067 kS/s, and so on down to 1.652 kS/s, depending
on the value of n. When using an external timebase with a frequency other
than 13.1072 MHz, the NI USB-9234 has a different set of data rates.
