Description
The PXI-5620 is a high-performance digitizer designed for a variety of applications. It features a resolution of 14-Bit, ensuring precise measurements and data acquisition. The device supports a wide range of sample rates, from 1 kS to 64 MS/s, allowing for flexible usage across different testing scenarios.
This model boasts a bandwidth of 10 kHz to 36 MHz, with a -3 dB cutoff, making it suitable for capturing a broad spectrum of signals. It achieves a Spurious-Free Dynamic Range of 80 dB, ensuring clear and accurate signal processing with minimal interference.
When it comes to onboard memory, the PXI-5620 offers 8 MS with DDC (Digital Downconversion) enabled and 16 MS without DDC, providing ample space for data storage and manipulation. Connectivity is facilitated through two SMA (INPUT, REF CLK IN) connectors and one SMB (PFI1), allowing for easy integration into existing systems.
The input impedance is set at 50 Ω, and the device operates with a reference input frequency of 10 MHz. This model is equipped with versatile triggering capabilities, including analog hysteresis, analog window, analog edge, digital edge, and software triggers, enhancing its adaptability to various experimental setups.
It finds application in areas requiring high resolution and precision, such as ATE (Automated Test Equipment), ultrasound, DSL (Digital Subscriber Line), and wireless testing, among others. Despite being announced as obsolete by National Instruments, the PXI-5620 remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, ensuring continued support for users of this advanced digitizer.
With part numbers 778282-01 and 778282-02, customers have options for specific configurations, further tailoring the device to meet their unique requirements.
