Description
The PXI-5142 is a digital oscilloscope designed to integrate with PXI systems, offering a comprehensive suite of features for high-speed signal acquisition and analysis. This device comes with part numbers including 195003E-01L, 779587-02, and 779587-01, each tailored to specific memory size options and configurations.
It is equipped with two channels, providing the ability to simultaneously record and analyze signals, enhancing its utility in multi-signal environments. With a maximum bandwidth of 40 MHz and a sample rate of up to 100 MS/s, the PXI-5142 is well-suited for capturing fast transient signals and analyzing a wide range of frequencies.
The oscilloscope features advanced Onboard Signal Processing (OSP) capabilities, including quadrature digital down-conversion, true digital down-conversion, and anti-alias filtering. These features enable precise signal analysis and interpretation, making it an invaluable tool for engineers and researchers.
Users can select between an input impedance of 50 Ω or 1 MΩ, allowing flexibility depending on the source impedance of the signal being measured. Additionally, the input range spans from 200 mV to 20 V, accommodating a wide variety of signal amplitudes.
The PXI-5142 offers different memory size options, including 256 MB (part number 779587-02) and 64 MB (part number 779587-01), enabling users to choose the memory capacity that best suits their application needs.
Compatibility with software platforms such as LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, Measurement Studio, and NI-TClk enhances the versatility of the PXI-5142, allowing for integration into a variety of test and measurement setups. The Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) serves as the configuration tool, simplifying device setup and configuration.
For optimal performance, a recommended warm-up time of 15 minutes is advised. The
