I have a PCI-MIO-16E-4 and two days ago it stopped working. Basically the digital I/O channels would always give a 5V output even when forced manually (using the labview hardwere controller program) to give a 0V output.
Once I removed the card I noticed that the chip marked as 70266 2A-01 @ NI was partially melted. I have been using the same program for awhile and it never gave me any problem. The only difference is I changed computer (upgraded from Gateway to Dell) and I transferd all the softwere and the card to the new unit and at the third run of the program the card failed.
Now I am about to buy a new one but I would like to know if there is any documentation on this type of failure and what could be a probable cause for it to happen.
If you need more informations about my case e-mail me or write in this forum.
I appreciate your help and I hope to hear from you guys soon.
Sincerely,
Federico.
