Description
The PXIe-5442 is a high-performance PXI Arbitrary Waveform Generator designed to meet a wide range of testing needs. It is identified by part numbers 780109-01, 780109-02, 780109-03, and 196749A-03. This waveform generator stands out due to its exceptional bandwidth of <43 MHz at -3 dB, ensuring that it can handle demanding applications with ease.
It features a single output channel with an output impedance of 50 Ω or 75 Ω (nominal), providing flexibility for various testing scenarios. The analog output resolution is an impressive 16-Bit, allowing for precise signal generation. Additionally, the device includes a software-selectable analog filter, enhancing its versatility and performance.
For connectivity, the PXIe-5442 is equipped with two SMB jacks (bidirectional), facilitating easy integration into a wide range of test setups. It also supports Onboard Signal Processing (OSP) and Synchronization and Memory Core (SMC) Technology, adding to its high functionality and efficiency in complex testing environments.
The waveform generator is compatible with several programming interfaces, including LabVIEW, LabWindows™, and Microsoft Visual C++ .NET, making it accessible to a broad user base. It also supports the Modulation Toolkit for LabVIEW and includes pulse-shaping filters, further expanding its utility for sophisticated signal generation and analysis.
With carrier frequencies up to 43 MHz with 355 nHz Resolution, the PXIe-5442 is capable of generating highly accurate and stable frequencies, making it an ideal choice for applications requiring precise modulation and signal generation.
