Description
The PXI-1045 is a high-performance PXI Chassis designed to meet various testing and measurement needs. It comes with multiple part numbers, including 778645-01, 778644-01, and 778644-02, ensuring flexibility in replacements and maintenance. This model is distinguished by its 18-slot chassis configuration, allowing for extensive modular expansion and versatility in system design.
Compatibility with CompactPCI standards ensures that the PXI-1045 can be integrated into a wide range of existing systems with minimal hassle. A key feature of this chassis is its impressive system bandwidth of 132 MB/s, facilitating fast data transfer rates that are essential for high-speed applications. Additionally, the chassis is equipped with a 10 MHz, low-jitter framework reference clock, and it boasts a clock skew of under 250 ps between slots, ensuring precise timing and synchronization across all modules.
For connectivity, the chassis includes two BNC I/O connectors for reference input and output, further enhancing its flexibility in various test setups. Thermal management is addressed with a three-fan configuration, providing either 25 W of cooling per slot at low settings or 24 W at high settings. This ensures that the system can operate efficiently under different load conditions without overheating. Users can also select between AUTO and HIGH fan speeds, depending on their cooling requirements.
Power supply reliability is paramount, and the PXI-1045 is equipped with an AC, replaceable power supply with NI part number 778647-01, ensuring easy maintenance and long-term operational stability. Despite its robust capabilities, the chassis maintains a manageable weight of 27.8 lb and compact dimensions of 6.97 x 17.54 x 17.12 in, making it suitable for both lab and field applications.
The PXI-1045 has reached its mature status, as announced by National Instruments. However, it remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves, ensuring that users can continue to rely on this powerful and versatile chassis for their critical testing and
