The NI SCXI-1121 is a 4-channel channel-to-channel isolated universal signal conditioning module for multi-type sensor measurement. Each independent channel supports jumper and software-based configuration for thermocouple, RTD, strain, voltage and 4-20 mA current signals, with built-in isolated sensor excitation. It provides 10 selectable programmable gain ranges and two switchable 4th-order low-pass filters to suppress industrial power frequency noise. Rated for 250 Vrms continuous channel-to-channel and channel-to-ground isolation, it meets IEC 61010 CAT II double insulation safety standards. It supports multiplexed single DAQ channel occupation and parallel high-speed sampling modes. Compatible with standard SCXI chassis and SCXI-1321 terminal block, it is widely used in distributed industrial sensor monitoring and mixed-signal multi-sensor acquisition systems.
