Description
The PXI-5620 is a high-performance RF Digitizer that comes in two part numbers: 778282-01 and 778282-02. This device is designed to cater to a wide range of applications including frequency-domain analysis, high-resolution Automated Test Equipment (ATE), ultrasound imaging, DSL testing, and wireless communication testing. It offers an impressive 14-Bit resolution and supports a sample rate range from 1 kS to 64 MS/s, making it versatile for various testing scenarios.
One of the key specifications of the PXI-5620 is its bandwidth, which ranges from 10 kHz to 36 MHz (-3 dB), ensuring accurate capture of signals across a broad spectrum. Additionally, it boasts a Spurious-Free Dynamic Range (SFDR) of 80 dB, enhancing its ability to detect and measure signals with high precision without being overshadowed by spurious signals.
The device comes equipped with 8 MS of onboard memory with Digital Downconverter (DDC) enabled, and 16 MS without DDC, providing ample space for data storage and processing. It features two SMA connectors for INPUT and REF CLK IN, and one SMB connector for PFI1, facilitating easy and flexible connectivity options.
Moreover, the PXI-5620 supports external triggering through PFI1, and offers a variety of triggering modes like analog hysteresis, analog window, analog edge, digital edge, and software among others. This flexibility allows users to set up complex triggering schemes to capture events of interest accurately.
Despite being announced as obsolete by National Instruments, the PXI-5620 is still available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, ensuring that users can continue to benefit from its advanced features and capabilities.
