This oscilloscope is part of the highly regarded Product Line, ensuring top-notch quality and performance. It comes with several part numbers, including 195003E-01L, 779587-02, and 779587-01, each corresponding to specific configurations and memory sizes.
This oscilloscope is equipped with 2 channels, making it versatile for various measurement tasks. It also boasts a maximum bandwidth of 40 MHz, allowing it to handle a broad spectrum of signals. Users can benefit from different memory sizes depending on the model: 256 MB for part number 779587-02 and 64 MB for 779587-01. This flexibility in memory size ensures that users can select a model that best fits their data storage requirements.
The PXI-5142 offers a sample rate of 100 MS/s, ensuring that it can accurately capture rapid signal changes. Its input impedance is programmable, offering settings of 50 Ω or 1 MΩ, which provides flexibility for different types of signal inputs. Additionally, the input range of 200 mV to 20 V allows for a wide variety of signal amplitudes to be measured.
One of the standout features of this oscilloscope is its Onboard Signal Processing (OSP), which enhances signal analysis capabilities. Compatibility with software such as LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and Measurement Studio makes this oscilloscope a versatile tool for engineers and researchers. The Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) serves as the configuration tool, simplifying setup and customization.
To achieve optimal performance, a recommended warm-up time of 15 minutes is advised. For maintenance, the oscilloscope should undergo calibration either annually or every two years, depending on usage and requirements. Despite its powerful features, the PXI-5142 maintains a compact form factor with dimensions of 8.5 x 0.8 x 5.1 inches and weighs just 16
