Description
The Part Number 188524F-17 refers to a PXI Arbitrary Waveform Generators known by its model number, PXI-5422. This particular model is notable for its self-calibration feature, which supports adjustments to gain and counterbalance within its analog paths, ensuring high accuracy in waveform generation.
When it comes to memory options, the PXI-5422 offers a range of sizes to fit various application needs, including 8 MB (779087-01), 32 MB (779087-02), 256 MB (779087-03), and 512 MB (779087-04). This flexibility allows users to select the memory size that best suits their specific waveform complexity and length requirements.
The device boasts a maximum bandwidth of 80 MHz and can achieve a maximum update rate of 200 MS/s, facilitating the generation of high-frequency signals with fine resolution. To utilize the PXI-5422, users must install the NI-FGEN driver, FGEN Soft Front Panel, and ADE for application development, which are essential software requirements for operating the device.
For configuration and monitoring, the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) serves as the software configuration tool, simplifying the setup process. The device is equipped with multiple I/O connectors, including CH 0, CLK IN (SMB jack), PFI 0 (SMB jack), PFI 1 (SMB jack), and DIGITAL DATA & CONTROL connectors (68-pin VHDCI female receptacle), offering extensive connectivity options.
Additionally, the PXI-5422 supports an external PLL Reference Clock and features capabilities for external triggering, which allows users to start or step through waveform generation based on external events, enhancing its flexibility in automated test environments.
Finally, it is worth noting that the PXI-5422 has reached its Mature Status Announcement but remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, ensuring long-term support and availability for
