Description
The PXI-5142 is a digital oscilloscope that comes with part numbers 195003E-01L, 779587-02, and 779587-01. This oscilloscope is designed to provide high-quality signal measurements with a maximum bandwidth of 40 MHz and a sample rate of 100 MS/s. It is equipped with two channels and offers a memory size of 64 MB/ch for the 779587-01 model and 256 MB for the 779587-02 model, allowing for extensive data storage and analysis.
The input impedance of the PXI-5142 can be programmatically set to either 50 Ω or 1 MΩ, providing flexibility in adapting to different signal sources. The input range of this device spans from 200 mV to 20 V, making it suitable for a wide variety of applications. Additionally, it features onboard signal processing (OSP), which includes quadrature digital downconversion (DDC), true DDC, and anti-alias filtering, enhancing the quality of the signal processing capabilities.
Software compatibility is broad with support for LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and Measurement Studio through the NI-SCOPE driver. Configuration and management of the PXI-5142 can be efficiently done via the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) tool. To ensure optimal performance, a recommended warm-up time of 15 minutes is advised before usage. The device should undergo calibration annually or biannually, depending on usage, to maintain precision.
The operating temperature range for the PXI-5142 is from 0 °C to 45 °C, with a storage temperature range significantly broader, from -40 °C to 71 °C. Its physical dimensions are 8.5 x 0.8 x 5.1 inches, and it weighs 16.2 oz, making it a compact and lightweight option for many setups. The maintenance phase for this product started on December 30, 2022, indicating the manufacturer’s ongoing support and commitment to this device’s reliability and
