Table 1. NI 447x Channel, Speed, and Resolution Specifications
Overview
The National Instruments PCI-4472 and PXI-4472 are 8-channel
dynamic signal acquisition devices for making high-accuracy audio-
frequency measurements. The NI PCI-4474 is a similar 4-channel
board. The vibration-optimized PXI-4472B offers a lower AC
cutoff frequency of 0.5 Hz. Input channels incorporate Integrated
Electronic
accelerometers and microphones. The input channels of an NI 447x
simultaneously digitize input signals over a bandwidth from DC to
45 kHz. You can synchronize multiple NI 447x devices for high-
channel-count applications, or with other modules using the PXI star
trigger bus or the RTSI bus on PCI. When used with the Sound and
Vibration Toolkit or other software analysis tools, an NI 447x can
obtain a variety of accurate time and frequency measurements for
your application.
Hardware
Analog Inputs
NI 447x devices have four or eight analog inputs with 24-bit
resolution ADCs that are simultaneously sampled at a software-
programmable rate. The high resolution provides the necessary
accuracy to make NI 447x devices well suited for audio and vibration
analysis applications.
For example, when sampling at 51.2 kS/s and using a 16 k FFT, a

for
dynamic range greater than 110 dB can be
achieved. Using state-of-the-art delta-sigma
modulating ADCs, the NI 447x devices
achieve low noise and low distortion.
Because these ADCs use a 1-bit quantizer
oversampled at a multiple of the specified
sampling rate, they produce extraordinary linearity. Extremely flat,
linear-phase, lowpass digital filters then remove aliases and shape the
quantization noise from the band of interest. Using the delta-sigma
modulating ADCs, an NI 447x is immune to the DNL distortion
associated with conventional data acquisition devices.
Antialiasing
The analog inputs have both analog and real-time digital filters
implemented in hardware to prevent aliasing. Input signals are first
passed through fixed analog filters to remove any signals with
frequency components beyond the range of the ADCs; then digital

range and a significantly lower noise floor than 12, 16, and comparable 24-bit products.
