Description
The PXIe-5170 is a highly sophisticated piece of equipment designed for a variety of applications, falling under the category of PXI Oscilloscopes/Digitizers. This model is identifiable by its part numbers 783690-01 and 783691-01, ensuring that users can accurately identify and procure the correct module for their needs.
This oscilloscope features 8 simultaneously-sampled calibrated analog input channels, providing ample capacity for a wide range of signal measurement tasks. The channels deliver a high degree of accuracy and detail, thanks to their 14-bit resolution, enabling precise data acquisition and analysis.
With a sample rate of up to 250 Msample/sec and bandwidth options of either 100 or 250 MHz, the PXIe-5170 is capable of capturing fast transient signals with high fidelity, making it an ideal choice for demanding applications. The input channels offer flexible AC/DC coupling, which can be independently configured to suit various signal types.
The module supports a voltage range from 200 mVpp to 5 Vpp, allowing it to accommodate signals of differing amplitudes without compromising signal integrity. Additionally, it is equipped with 8 programmable digital IO-lines, further extending its versatility and utility in complex setups.
Connectivity and data handling are facilitated by a high-throughput Gen2 x8 PXI-Express interface, capable of streaming data at speeds up to 3.2 GB/sec over the PXI-Bus. This ensures that even at maximum sampling rates, data transfer bottlenecks are minimized.
At its core, the PXIe-5170 leverages the power of a Xilinx Kintex 7 FPGA, providing robust computing capabilities for real-time signal processing and analysis. This FPGA is supported by a range of programming environments, including LabVIEW and HDL tools, offering flexibility in application development and deployment.
Due to its advanced technology and performance capabilities, the PXIe-5170 requires specific cooling considerations.
