Description
The product with the part number 186191B-01, also known to some as 778282-01 and 778282-02, falls under the category of RF Digitizers. Specifically, it is designated as the PXI-5620 model. This device boasts a 14-Bit resolution, ensuring high-quality output for users.
Its sample rate range is quite flexible, spanning from 1 kS to 64 MS/s, which allows for a wide variety of applications. In terms of frequency, it can handle a bandwidth from 10 kHz to 36 MHz at -3 dB, making it suitable for numerous RF applications. One of its notable features is the spurious-free dynamic range, which stands at 80 dB, indicating its ability to produce clear, undistorted signals.
The PXI-5620 is equipped with onboard memory that varies depending on the usage of Digital Down-Conversion (DDC). With DDC activated, it provides 8 MS of memory, while without DDC, the available memory doubles to 16 MS. This flexibility allows users to optimize their system based on their specific needs.
For connectivity, it features two SMA connectors (for INPUT and REF CLK IN) and one SMB connector (PFI1) on the front panel. This ensures that it can easily be integrated into a wide range of setups. Additionally, its triggering capabilities are comprehensive and include options such as analog hysteresis, analog window, analog edge, digital edge, software, and more, offering users a high level of control over their measurements.
Although obsolete status has been 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-quality equipment for their RF digitization needs.
