Description
The NI PXI-5900 Differential Preamplifier, with part number 196368C-01L (780166-01), is a crucial component in the category of PXI Oscilloscopes/Digitizers. This model, PXI-5900, is specifically designed for enhancing the performance of the PXI-5922 Digitizer.
It features 2 input channels, providing versatility in measurement capabilities. The preamplifier supports various input couplings, including GND, AC, and DC, allowing for a wide range of signal types to be accurately measured. The input impedance is notably precise at 50 Ω ±2% and is software-selectable, offering flexibility and ease of use.
Connection to the preamplifier is facilitated through BNC input and SMB output connectors, ensuring compatibility with a variety of devices and setups. The vertical gain is finely tuned to 0.25 ±0.2%, and it boasts a minimal zero input offset error of 500 μV, enhancing measurement accuracy.
Its passband flatness is within 1 dB, ensuring uniform performance across the supported frequency range. The Common-Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR) is impressively high at 70 dB at 60 Hz, significantly reducing the noise level and improving signal fidelity. The preamplifier’s slew rate is 100 V/μs, indicating its ability to handle rapid changes in signal amplitude without distortion.
This model is compatible with NI-SCOPE 3.5.1, and NI Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) software, making it a versatile tool for a wide range of applications. Despite its powerful capabilities, the device maintains a light weight of 173 grams, making it an efficient and portable option for any setup.
