Theory of Operation
This chapter contains an overview of the SCXI-1141/1142/1143 module
and explains the operation of each functional unit of the module.
and explains the operation of each functional unit of the module.
The SCXI-1141/1142/1143 module has eight software-controlled input
channels that amplify and filter signals. Each channel has an output range
of ±5 V and has an input amplifier with gains of 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, and 100.
You can independently set each amplifier gain. The analog inputs are
overvoltage protected. The SCXI-1141/1142/1143 module filters are
lowpass, 8th-order elliptic, Bessel, and Butterworth filters respectively that
can have a cutoff frequency from 10 Hz to 25 kHz. All eight filters have the
same cutoff frequency. The outputs of all eight channels are available at the
rear connector.

Power-Up State
When the SCXI-1141/1142/1143 module is powered up or reset through
software or the SCXI chassis reset button, the following states are defined:

The gain of each amplifier is set to 1.
•
Channel 0 is selected as the OUTPUT signal and the module defaults
