Keithley KPCI-3130 Universal Analog Output Module (8 Channel)

The Keithley KPCI-3130 is an 8-channel universal analog output module for PCI-bus systems delivering precision signal sourcing in industrial and laboratory automation. It combines eight analog output channels with 32 configurable high-current digital I/O lines, enabling direct control of external devices including solenoids, valves, and actuators. The module sources or sinks up to 20 mA without external power and operates across a single ±10 V range with 19.1 µV/count resolution per channel—eliminating range-change glitches inherent in multi-range designs.
