MUX
The NI USB-6008/6009 has one analog-to-digital converter (ADC).
The multiplexer (MUX) routes one AI channel at a time to the PGA.

PGA
The progammable-gain amplifier provides input gains of 1, 2, 4, 5, 8,
10, 16, or 20 when configured for differential measurements and gain
of 1 when configured for single-ended measurements. The PGA gain is
automatically calculated based on the voltage range selected in the
measurement application.

A/D Converter
The analog-to-digital converter (ADC) digitizes the AI signal by
converting the analog voltage into a digital code.
