Description
The National Instruments PCI-5640 is an IF Transceiver Device that carries the part number 779460-01. This device is designed to facilitate complex signal processing tasks efficiently. It features 2 inputs and 2 outputs, making it versatile for various interfacing requirements.
The PCI-5640 boasts a real-time bandwidth of up to 20 MHz, which is substantial for handling high-speed data transfers and processing. Its performance is further enhanced by the inclusion of 14-bit A/D and D/A converters, ensuring precise analog to digital and digital to analog conversions. The device operates within an analog input/output frequency range of 250 kHz, suitable for a wide range of signal processing tasks.
At the core of the PCI-5640 is a Xilinx Virtex-II Pro-P30 FPGA, which provides a flexible and powerful processing environment. Users can choose between FPGA or Host-based processing depending on their specific application needs. This flexibility is supported by programming tools such as NI-5640 driver software and NI LabVIEW, which simplify the development and implementation of custom applications.
The device supports Direct Memory Access (DMA), facilitating efficient data transfers that minimize CPU load. With a power consumption rate between 20 to 25.5 Watts, it is designed to operate efficiently without excessive power draw. The PCI-5640 is compatible with Windows operating systems, ensuring ease of integration into existing setups.
Despite its obsolete status, the PCI-5640 remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves. This ensures that users can continue to benefit from its advanced features and capabilities without concern for discontinuation.
