Description
The Part Number 135077A-01L refers to a Vector Signal Transceiver (VST) categorized under the model PXIe-5842, commonly known by its short description, Rainier. This instrument is designed to occupy a Four-slot PXI Express slot and is compatible with up to four PXIe-5842 VSTs in an 18-slot PXI chassis. It is widely utilized across the semiconductor, aerospace, and defense industries due to its robust capabilities.
One of the key features of the PXIe-5842 is its FPGA-based real-time signal processing, which delivers exceptional error vector magnitude (EVM) performance for cellular and wireless standards, including the advanced Wi-Fi 7 and 5G NR. This makes it an invaluable tool for developing and testing next-generation wireless technologies.
There are several variations of the PXIe-5842, each designed to meet specific frequency requirements: the 54 GHz (788566-02), 23 GHz (788565-01), 12 GHz (788565-02), and 8 GHz (788565-03). This range of options ensures that developers can select the most appropriate version for their specific application needs.
For programming, the PXIe-5842 supports a wide array of languages, including LabVIEW, LabWindows™/CVI, C/C++, C# (.NET), and InstrumentStudio, making it versatile and adaptable to various development environments. Furthermore, it is compatible with drivers such as RFmx, NI-RFSG, and NI-RFSA, which are essential for its operation and integration into testing setups.
To ensure optimal performance, specific installation requirements must be adhered to, including the specific driver version, order and orientation of modules, chassis capacity, power, and slot cooling capacity. These requirements are critical for the effective and efficient operation of the PXIe-5842 in complex test and measurement scenarios.
