Description
The National Instruments PXIe-4163 PXI Source Measure Unit, released in 2014, is designed for high-density DC channel applications on the NI PXI platform. It can accommodate up to 24 channels in a single PXI Express slot, providing a voltage range of -24 V to +24 V and a current range of -50 mA to +50 mA, with the capability to source or sink up to 100 mA per channel. With a current sensitivity of 100 pA and a sampling rate of up to 100 kS/s, it ensures accurate and rapid measurements.
Featuring compatibility with NI DCPower driver software and development environments such as LabVIEW and LabWindows/CVI, the PXIe-4163 can be easily configured using the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) tool. It operates within a temperature range of 0 °C to 55 °C and can scale up to 408 SMU channels in a single PXI chassis, optimizing space with only 4U of rack space required.
Available in different precision versions, the unit’s part numbers include 784483-01 for the 100PA Precision SMU, 784483-02 for the 10PA Precision SMU, and 140185D-01L. The PXIe-4163 is a robust and versatile instrument that weighs 13.9 ounces, designed to meet the needs of both lab environments and production floors.
