Description
The Part Number 778283-01 identifies a specific model of RF Downconverters known as the PXI-5600. This model is designed to offer a real-time bandwidth of 20 MHz, making it suitable for a wide range of applications in RF signal processing. It operates over a frequency range from 9 kHz to 2.7 GHz, providing versatility in handling various signal types.
One of the key specifications of the PXI-5600 is its noise density, which is less than -140 dBm/Hz, and its phase noise, which is less than -94 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset. These features ensure high-quality signal processing with minimal interference. Furthermore, the device boasts a spurious-free dynamic range of more than 80 dB, indicating its ability to distinguish signal from noise effectively.
Regarding performance stability, the PXI-5600 has a frequency stability of ±20 ppb and a frequency accuracy of ±50 ppb, which are critical for precision measurement tasks. The input signal repeatability is less than 0.2 dB, highlighting the device’s reliability in delivering consistent results over time. To operate this device, specific software requirements must be met, including the NI-RFSA 2.1 and NIPXI-5600 Support driver.
The PXI-5600 is equipped with various connectors, including FREQ REF IN, 10 MHz OUT, PXI 10 MHz I/O, OUTPUT, and INPUT, offering flexibility in connectivity for different experimental setups. The recommended warm-up time for the device is 20 minutes, ensuring it reaches operational stability. Additionally, it is recommended that the device undergoes calibration annually or every two years to maintain its accuracy and performance.
