Description
The part number 191028D-02 refers to a specific model of PC-based Arbitrary Waveform Generators, known as the PCI-5421. This model is designed to deliver high-quality waveform generation with a detailed description indicating that it is an NI PCI-5421, capable of 100 MS/s Arb W/LVDS, featuring a 16-bit resolution and 32MB of memory, which provides four times longer playback than standard models.
When it comes to onboard memory options, the PCI-5421 offers a variety of choices to cater to different needs, including 8 MB (778692-01), 32 MB (778692-02), and 256 MB (778692-03). This flexibility allows users to select the memory capacity that best fits their application requirements.
The output channel of the PCI-5421 is of the Analog, DC-coupled type, ensuring a reliable and stable connection for waveform generation. The connection to the generator is made through an SMB (jack) connector type, which is widely used for its compactness and reliability.
With a 16-bit DAC resolution, the PCI-5421 offers high fidelity and precision in waveform generation. It boasts a maximum bandwidth of 43 MHz, which is suitable for a wide range of applications, from scientific research to engineering projects. The inclusion of a 7-pole elliptical filter further enhances the quality of the output signal by reducing noise and unwanted frequencies.
The device also features 2 bidirectional channels that support frequencies from DC to 105 MHz, allowing for versatile signal generation and analysis. It can handle a maximum input overload of -2 to +7 V voltage, protecting the device from potential damage due to over-voltage.
The status of the PCI-5421 is described as Mature, indicating that it is a well-established product that is still available for purchase and repairs by Apex Waves. This status ensures that users can rely on the device for their waveform generation needs and have support available when needed.
