Description
The PXI-5620 is a versatile and powerful piece of equipment designed to meet the needs of a wide range of applications, from high resolution Automatic Test Equipment (ATE) to Ultrasound, DSL, and Wireless testing. This model, which comes with part numbers 778282-01 and 778282-02, boasts a 14-Bit resolution, ensuring high-quality data acquisition and signal processing capabilities.
One of the PXI-5620’s key features is its sample rate range, which spans from 1 kS to 64 MS/s, allowing for flexibility in capturing a wide range of signal frequencies. It also offers a bandwidth (-3 dB) from 10 kHz to 36 MHz, making it suitable for a variety of testing scenarios. The device ensures a spurious-free dynamic range of 80 dB, highlighting its ability to measure signals with high fidelity and minimal noise interference.
Regarding memory, the PXI-5620 is equipped with onboard memory options to enhance its performance. With Digital Down-Converter (DDC), it offers 8 MS of memory, and without DDC, it provides 16 MS, facilitating efficient data handling and storage during operations.
The model features front panel connectors, including 2 SMA (INPUT and REF CLK IN) and 1 SMB (PFI1), which support a variety of connections for different testing setups. Furthermore, it supports external triggering via PFI1, enhancing its versatility in synchronized operations across multiple devices.
Another highlight of the PXI-5620 is its array of triggering modes, which include analog hysteresis, analog window, analog edge, digital edge, software, and more. These modes provide users with the flexibility to configure the device for optimal performance in various testing environments.
Despite its obsolete status announced by National Instruments, the PXI-5620 remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves. This ensures that users can continue to rely on this high-performance device for their critical testing and measurement needs.
