Description
The PCI-5102 is a PC-based oscilloscope/digitizer with the part number 183612H-01, designed to deliver high-quality signal measurements in a wide range of applications. This device boasts a sampling rate of 20 MS/s and features 2 channels, making it versatile for various measurement tasks. The analog input bandwidth of 15 MHz ensures accurate signal representation for most medium-speed applications.
Users can input signals within a voltage range of ±50 mV to ±5 Volts, with the option to extend this range up to ±50 V when using attenuating probes. This flexibility allows for the measurement of both low and high-voltage signals without the need for additional equipment. The device offers software-selectable AC/DC coupling, providing further versatility in signal measurement and analysis.
The PCI-5102 employs 8-bit, 20 MS/s flash ADCs to convert analog signals into digital form, ensuring fast and accurate data acquisition. With Random Interleaved Sampling (RIS), the effective sampling rate can reach up to 1 GS/s, allowing for the capture of fine signal details that are critical in high-speed signal analysis. The onboard memory can store approximately 663,000 samples, enabling extended data recording sessions.
Equipped with NI-DMM driver software, this device seamlessly integrates with a variety of software environments, offering users a flexible platform for developing custom measurement solutions. Its triggering options include multiple advanced modes such as bi-level triggering and TTL/CMOS digital triggers, catering to a wide range of experimental setups and analysis requirements.
The physical dimensions of the PCI-5102 are 4.2 x 6.87 inches, making it a compact solution that fits easily into standard PC cases. Despite its advanced features and capabilities, this oscilloscope/digitizer is not considered obsolete, ensuring ongoing support and compatibility with modern PC-based measurement systems.
