Description
The product with the part number 778283-01 falls under the category of RF Downconverters and is identified by the model PXI-5600. It has the capability to handle a bandwidth capacity of 20 MHz real-time, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. The frequency range of this device spans from 9 kHz to 2.7 GHz, providing versatility in its operational use.
When it comes to performance in environments requiring minimal noise, this downconverter boasts a noise density of < -140 dBm/Hz, ensuring clear signal processing. Its spurious-free dynamic range is greater than 80 dB, and it has impressive phase noise characteristics of < -94 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset, indicating high signal fidelity.
The PXI-5600 is designed with precision in mind, featuring a timebase stability of ±20 ppb and frequency accuracy of ±50 ppb. It requires specific software for operation, including NI-RFSA 2.1, NIPXI-5600 Support, ADE (such as LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, Microsoft C/C++), ensuring that users have the necessary tools for advanced functionality.
Connectivity is facilitated through various connectors, including FREQ REF IN, 10 MHz OUT, PXI 10 MHz I/O, OUTPUT, and INPUT, providing flexibility in configuration and integration into existing setups. The device requires a 20-minute warm-up time for optimal performance and is recommended to undergo calibration periodically, either annually or every two years, to maintain accuracy.
With dimensions of 3.9 x 6.3 in, the PXI-5600 is compact and fits well into a variety of workspaces. Its full-scale input range is up to +30 dBm, accommodating a broad spectrum of signal strengths for diverse RF downconversion tasks.
