Description
The NI PXI-6683 is a high-performance module designed for timing and synchronization applications. It features part numbers 782109-01 and 782110-01, indicating variations of the model that cater to specific needs within the field of timing and synchronization. This module is an essential tool for systems that require precise timing, offering a variety of synchronization methods including GPS, IEEE 1588, and IRIG B.
At the heart of the PXI-6683 lies a temperature-compensated crystal oscillator (TCXO), which ensures stable frequency over a range of temperatures, providing reliability and precision in timing. This is particularly important in environments where temperature fluctuations are common, ensuring that the timing and synchronization remain accurate despite external conditions.
Furthermore, the module is equipped with an Ethernet port that supports speeds of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, and 1000 Mbps, with auto-negotiation to ensure compatibility and optimal performance across different network speeds. The Ethernet port also features Auto-MDI and full duplex operation, enhancing its functionality and efficiency in networked environments.
The PXI-6683 also excels in scalability, offering up to 13 PXI Star Triggers per chassis. This allows for extensive synchronization capabilities across multiple devices, making it ideal for large-scale systems that require coordinated timing. Additionally, the module boasts propagation delay matching within 1 ns and a typical skew limit of 500 ps, ensuring high precision and minimal timing errors across the system.
In summary, the NI PXI-6683 GPS, IRIG-B, IEEE 1588 Sync and Time Module with TCXO is a versatile and powerful solution for timing and synchronization needs in complex systems. Its robust features and specifications make it a valuable asset for applications demanding high precision and reliability.
