Description
The PCI-6562 is a high-performance Digital Waveform Generator designed and manufactured by National Instruments. This device is specifically engineered to deliver precise and reliable digital signaling, utilizing LVDS (Low Voltage Differential Signaling) technology. It supports a Data Rate in DDR (Double Data Rate) Mode of up to 400 Mb/s, with a Clock Rate of 200 MHz.
Equipped with various part numbers, 778992-01, 778992-02, and 778992-03, this model offers flexibility in its application and integration into different systems. The PCI-6562 boasts an impressive onboard memory capacity, available in 2, 16, and 128 Mb/channel, ensuring ample storage for complex waveform patterns and sequences.
Compatibility with software is a key feature of the PCI-6562, which is designed to work seamlessly with LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and Measurement Studio. This compatibility ensures that users have the flexibility and tools needed to create, test, and deploy their applications efficiently.
The device includes 16 LVDS channels, providing ample connectivity for demanding applications. With per-channel direction control in SDR mode, users have precise control over signal direction, enhancing the device’s versatility. The PCI-6562 is equipped with 3 input/output clock terminals, and it allows for both internal and external clock sources, giving users the flexibility to choose the optimal timing source for their application.
Channel-to-channel skew is meticulously managed to ensure high precision and reliability in signal generation and acquisition, with a skew of ±215 ps in generation and ±330 ps in acquisition at frequencies of ≥25 MHz. This level of precision is critical for applications requiring synchronized, high-speed digital signaling.
The PCI-6562 is not just powerful but also compact, with dimensions of <
