Description
The Part Number 183962F-01 identifies a specific model of PC-based Arbitrary Waveform Generators, known as the PCI-5411. This model is described as CCA, PCI-5411,4M, indicating its specific configuration and capabilities. It features one 12-bit analog, DC-coupled output channel, providing versatility in generating various signal types.
For signal generation, the PCI-5411 can achieve a maximum frequency of 16 MHz for TTL signals, and up to 1 MHz for square, ramp, and triangle waveforms. This device employs Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS) mode for frequency generation, boasting a frequency resolution of 9.31 MHz and a 32-bit DDS accumulator resolution. Its sampling rate can reach up to 40 MS/sec, enabling the creation of high-fidelity waveforms.
The generator offers output impedance options of either 50 Ω nominal or 75 Ω high impedance, with voltage outputs of +5V or +10V, depending on the selected impedance. It supports waveform generation methods such as FM and AM, allowing for a wide range of signal modulation capabilities.
In terms of software compatibility, the PCI-5411 is supported by VirtualBench-FG, VirtualBench-ARB, and NI-FGEN control software, and it can be integrated into development environments like LabVIEW, VB, and C/C++, offering flexibility for various programming needs.
Despite its obsolete status, as announced by National Instruments, the PCI-5411 remains available from Apex Waves, providing an option for those in need of this specific model for their waveform generation requirements.
