Description
The PXIe-6555 by National Instruments is a sophisticated 24-Channel Digital Waveform Instrument designed for advanced measurement and testing applications. This high-precision instrument comes with part numbers 152123B-01L and 781948-01, indicating its unique identification within the PXI Digital Instruments category.
One of the standout features of the PXIe-6555 is its timing resolution, which is as fine as 30 ps per pin, providing users with the ability to perform highly accurate and detailed timing analysis. Additionally, each of the 24 channels can source or sink up to 32 mA of current, making it highly versatile in a wide range of testing scenarios.
The voltage range for this instrument spans from -2 V to 7 V, with an output impedance of 50 ohms. These specifications ensure that the PXIe-6555 can be adapted to a variety of signal levels for different applications. Furthermore, the maximum clock rate and data rate of 200 MHz and 200 Mb/s, respectively, enable users to work with high-speed digital signals efficiently.
Compatibility with software is a critical aspect of any instrumentation, and the PXIe-6555 is no exception. It requires an Application Development Environment (ADE) such as LabVIEW or LabWindows/CVI, along with NI-HSDIO, NI Script Editor, and the NI Digital Waveform Editor (NI DWE) for comprehensive development and analysis capabilities.
Connection to the instrument is facilitated through a VHDCI DDC connector, ensuring reliable and secure connections for data transfer. Despite its robust capabilities, the PXIe-6555 maintains a relatively compact form factor, measuring 21.6 x 2.0 x 13.0 cm and weighing just 28 oz. This compact size allows for easy integration into existing PXI systems without requiring excessive space.
