I'll look up current ratings for devices to make sure I do not overload the device. On National Instruments data sheets they use the term "output current" instead of maximum current. Now I always use relay output cards but this case I have to use a Sourcing Output card.
Is "Current Output" the same meaning as "Max Current"? Or am I missing some detail on Sinking/Sourcing Output cards?
Note: I could call NI and ask them for the details, but I have been coming to allaboutcircuits for years, and wanted to use this as an ice breaker to get started on the forums.
Thanks!
