Description
The part number 779176-03 refers to a PXI Arbitrary Waveform Generator, specifically the model PXI-5412. This device falls under the category of PXI Arbitrary Waveform Generators and is designed to provide high-performance waveform generation capabilities. The PXI-5412 is characterized by its ability to generate waveforms at a maximum bandwidth of 20 MHz and supports an update rate of up to 100 MS/s. It is equipped with a 14-bit digital-to-analog converter, which enhances the output signal of smooth waveforms through digital interpolation, ensuring high-quality signal generation.
The memory options available for this model include 8 MB (part number 779176-01), 32 MB (part number 779176-02), and 256 MB (part number 779176-03), with the latter being the specification of this particular model. This ample memory capacity allows for the storage and execution of complex waveform patterns, making it a versatile tool for various applications.
The PXI-5412 is driven by NI-FGEN driver software, ensuring seamless integration and compatibility with National Instruments software environments. It is also compatible with various Application Development Environments (ADEs) such as LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and Measurement Studio, providing flexibility in programming and automation.
For optimal performance, it is recommended that the PXI-5412 be allowed a warm-up time of 15 minutes. To maintain accuracy and reliability, calibration of the device is suggested at least once every two years. Calibration options include NIST accredited calibrations through a 3rd party, as well as basic (unaccredited) in-house calibration, catering to different standards and requirements.
The operating temperature range for the PXI-5412 is from 0 °C to 55 °C, while it can be stored in a temperature range of -25 °C to 85 °C, ensuring durability and reliability across a wide range of environmental conditions. Furthermore, the device has been announced to be available for purchase and repairs by Apex Waves, indicating ongoing support and serviceability. This combination of features and support options makes the PXI-5412 a
