Description
“`html
The PC-based Arbitrary Waveform Generator, model PCI-5411, is identified by its part number 183962F-02. This device operates on the principle of the DDS (Direct Digital Synthesis) method for signal generation, ensuring accurate and stable waveform outputs.
It is designed to support RTSI (Real-Time System Integration), allowing for seamless integration and synchronization with other devices. For external clock synchronization, the PCI-5411 utilizes the PLL (Phase-Locked Loop) method, which enhances its performance in complex system configurations.
A notable feature of this generator is its capability for waveform linking and looping, providing users with flexibility in creating long, complex waveform sequences without the need for constant manual intervention. The device offers 1 analog output channel, which is 12-bit and DC-coupled, ensuring high-resolution output signals.
The maximum output frequency can reach up to 16 MHz for TTL signals and up to 1 MHz for Square, Ramp, and Triangle waveforms, with a frequency resolution in DDS mode of 9.31 MHz. The DDS accumulator resolution is 32 bits, and it supports a sampling rate of up to 40 MS/sec, providing high precision in waveform generation.
Users have the option to select between 50 Ω nominal or 75 Ω high impedance for the output impedance, which affects the voltage output levels, offering either +5V or +10V depending on the selected impedance. This level of customization ensures that the PCI-5411 can be adapted to a wide range of applications and requirements.
