Description
The Part Number 778283-01 identifies a specific model within the RF Downconverters category, known as the PXI-5600. This device boasts a real-time bandwidth of 20 MHz, ensuring efficient performance across a wide range of applications. Its operating range extends from 9 kHz to 2.7 GHz, making it versatile for various signal processing tasks.
The Noise Density is rated at < -140 dBm/Hz, indicating a low noise floor for clearer signal analysis. In terms of dynamic range, the Intermodulation Spurious-free Dynamic Range is impressive at > 80 dB, allowing for the detection of weak signals in the presence of strong interferers. Additionally, the unit’s Phase Noise performance is excellent, at < -94 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset, ensuring high fidelity in signal processing.
Accuracy and stability are paramount in measurement equipment, and the PXI-5600 excels in both. The Timebase Stability is ±20 ppb, complemented by a Frequency Accuracy of ±50 ppb. These specifications guarantee precise measurements over time. Moreover, the Amplitude Error Compensation feature minimizes errors to < 0.2 dB over a 20 °C change, enhancing the device’s reliability in varying environmental conditions.
Operation of the PXI-5600 requires specific software, namely NI-RFSA 2.1 and the NIPXI-5600 Support driver, ensuring compatibility and ease of integration into existing systems. Connectivity is facilitated through various connectors, including FREQ REF IN, 10 MHz OUT, PXI 10 MHz I/O, OUTPUT, and INPUT, providing flexibility in setup and use.
For optimal performance, a recommended warm-up time of 20 minutes
