Description
Application Scenarios
A U.S.aerospace component manufacturer faced a critical challenge:testing the temperature distribution of jet engine turbine blades required 16 simultaneous,high-precision measurements—but their existing DAQ system had only 8 channels and suffered from electrical noise,leading to inconsistent data.After integrating the NI SCXI-1125 into their SCXI-1000 chassis,the manufacturer achieved a breakthrough:the SCXI-1125’s 16 differential channels captured temperature data from 16 embedded sensors with 16-bit resolution,eliminating cross-talk from factory machinery.Its 100kS/s sampling rate also enabled real-time tracking of temperature spikes during engine tests,allowing engineers to validate blade durability 30%faster than before.
This case addresses two key pain points in complex testing:limited channel count and noise interference.The SCXI-1125 doesn’t just collect data—it delivers actionable insights that accelerate product development and ensure safety.

Technical Principles and Innovative Values
Innovation Point 1:16 Differential Channels for Noise Immunity
Unlike single-ended input modules(which pick up noise from nearby power lines),the SCXI-1125 uses differential inputs to reject common-mode noise—critical in factories or labs with heavy electrical equipment.A automotive testing lab reported that switching to the SCXI-1125 reduced measurement noise by 75%when testing battery voltage fluctuations,leading to more reliable battery life predictions.
Innovation Point 2:Seamless SCXI Platform Integration
The SCXI-1125 works with NI’s SCXI chassis to expand channel count—one SCXI-1000 chassis can hold up to 8 SCXI-1125 modules,delivering 128 simultaneous analog inputs.This scalability eliminated the need for multiple DAQ systems at a pharmaceutical lab,cutting equipment costs by 40%while doubling their testing capacity.
Innovation Point 3:Plug-and-Play Software Integration
With native support for NI LabVIEW,the SCXI-1125 requires no custom drivers—engineers can configure channels,set sampling rates,and visualize data in minutes.A university research team studying renewable energy used LabVIEW and the SCXI-1125 to monitor solar panel output,reducing setup time from 8 hours to 1 hour and accelerating their research timeline by 2 months.
Application Cases and Industry Value
Case 1:Industrial Pressure Sensor Calibration
A German manufacturing company used the SCXI-1125 to calibrate 16 pressure sensors simultaneously for its hydraulic systems.Key results after 6 months:
Calibration accuracy improved from±0.5%to±0.1%(thanks to 16-bit resolution),reducing sensor rejection rates by 90%.
Testing time per sensor dropped from 15 minutes to 5 minutes,allowing the company to calibrate 3x more sensors daily.
Data logging via LabVIEW created a digital audit trail,ensuring compliance with ISO 9001 standards and reducing documentation errors.
Case 2:Biomedical Research
A U.S.university’s biomedical lab integrated the SCXI-1125 into its neurophysiology setup to record electrical signals from 16 brain electrodes.Outcomes:
Low noise performance(≤50μV p-p)captured faint neural signals that were previously undetectable.
Real-time data streaming to LabVIEW enabled researchers to correlate neural activity with behavior,leading to a published study on motor control.
These cases demonstrate the SCXI-1125’s cross-industry versatility:it enhances accuracy in manufacturing,accelerates research in academia,and ensures compliance in regulated fields.
