Description
The NI PXI-5695 8 GHz Programmable RF Attenuator is classified under the category of General Purpose RF Sig Conditioning. It is identified by the part number 195809C-01 (781036-01) and is recognized by its model number PXI-5695. This device is designed to offer precise control over signal attenuation within a frequency range of 50 MHz to 8.0 GHz, making it suitable for a wide range of RF applications.
The PXI-5695 features an attenuation range of up to 70 dB, with a maximum net attenuation of 70 dB at 2.5 GHz when cascaded. It operates with 2 channels, including one programmable and one fixed attenuation path, providing flexibility in signal conditioning. The resolution of channel 1 is noted as +0.5 dB attenuation resolution, with a calibration accuracy of ±0.7 dB level calibration accuracy. Moreover, the attenuation settling time for channel 1 is remarkably swift, at +4 µs.
Regarding power specifications, the PXI-5695 can handle a maximum input power (operation) of +27 dBm (5 Vrms, 7 Vpk), and it supports a maximum reverse power of +26 dBm. For connection purposes, the device employs SMA female connectors, ensuring reliable and high-quality connections for RF signals. The unit is also designed to work with a standard impedance of 50 ohms, common in RF systems, providing compatibility with a wide range of RF components and systems.
