Description
The PXIe-4163 is a high-density, precision power source and measure unit (SMU) with part numbers including 784483-01, 784483-02, and 140185D-01L. This unit can accommodate up to 24 channels in a single PXI Express slot, making it highly efficient for complex testing setups.
Each channel of the PXIe-4163 operates within a voltage range of -24 V to +24 V and offers a current range from -50 mA to +50 mA, with the capability to source or sink up to 100 mA per channel. The precision of current measurement extends to a sensitivity of 100 pA, ensuring accurate and detailed analysis of power consumption and output.
With a sampling and refresh rate of up to 100 kS/s, the PXIe-4163 allows for rapid data acquisition and real-time monitoring of electrical parameters. This unit is designed to operate within a temperature range of 0 °C to 55 °C, ensuring reliability and consistency in a variety of environmental conditions.
Compatibility with software is broad, including the NI DCPower driver, LabVIEW, and LabWindows/CVI, which facilitates easy integration into existing systems and simplifies the development of customized test sequences. Additionally, the Measurement & Explorer (MAX) configuration tool supports efficient setup and management of the device.
For large-scale applications, up to 408 SMU channels can be accommodated in a 4U rack space when using the PXIe-4163, highlighting its exceptional scalability and compactness. Despite its capabilities, the unit maintains a modest weight of 13.9 oz and dimensions of 0.8 x 5.1 x 8.5 inches, making it an efficient use of space in crowded test environments.
The device includes a 62-pin connector, ensuring robust and reliable connectivity with test fixtures and other components within a PXI system. This combination of features and specifications makes the PXIe-4163 an ideal choice for a wide range of power sourcing and measurement applications in both research and industrial contexts.
