Description
The PXI-5690 is a high-performance, General Purpose RF Signal Conditioning module designed for a wide range of applications. This module is identified by its part numbers 779465-01 and 190872E-01, ensuring you get the right component for your needs.
It features a 2-channel configuration, making it versatile for simultaneous processing. With a frequency range of up to 3 GHz, it meets the demands of a broad spectrum of RF applications. This module comes in a compact 3U PXI single-slot form factor, optimized for easy integration into PXI systems.
Users benefit from both Fixed and Configurable gain options, providing flexibility in signal conditioning. Channel 0 offers a fixed gain preamplifier with a 30 dB gain, ideal for consistent amplification needs. Meanwhile, Channel 1 introduces a programmable preamplifier with two selectable paths: a Fixed gain enhancement for targeted amplification and a Direct path for scenarios where gain omission is necessary.
The operating gain output of the PXI-5690 ranges from -10 to +20 dB, accommodating various signal strengths. Its connection capabilities include a Direct path for automatic gain omission, simplifying the setup for users. This module is compatible with RF vector signal analyzers, such as the NI PXI-5660, making it a versatile choice for RF signal analysis.
An important aspect of the PXI-5690 is that it requires no triggering scheme, streamlining its operation and reducing setup complexity. This feature underscores the module’s ease of use and efficiency in RF signal conditioning tasks.
