Description
The PCI-6561 is a high-performance, digital waveform generator and analyzer with part numbers 778991-01, 778991-02, and 778991-03. This device is designed to operate within a frequency range of 48 Hz to 100 MHz for its on-board clock, making it suitable for a wide variety of applications. Additionally, it can accept an external clock input (CLK IN) with a frequency range of 20 kHz to 100 MHz and also supports a STROBE frequency range identical to the on-board clock, from 48 Hz to 100 MHz.
The clock resolution of the PCI-6561 is impressively fine at 10 picoseconds, providing precise control over timing. It boasts a typical lock time of 400 milliseconds and can work with a reference clock frequency range of 10 MHz ± 50 ppm. The duty cycle range this model supports is from 25% to 75%, allowing for a flexible adjustment to meet various signal requirements.
Software compatibility is broad with the PCI-6561, including support for LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, Measurement Studio, and programming environments like Microsoft Visual C/C++ and .NET. For configuration, the device utilizes the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX), enhancing its user-friendly experience.
Before reaching optimal performance, the typical warm-up time for the PCI-6561 is about 15 minutes. It maintains a frequency measurement accuracy of ± 100 ppm, ensuring reliability and precision in its operations. The device’s weight is 410 grams, and it has dimensions of 4.96 x 13.9 inches, making it a compact and manageable size for integration into various systems.
Operating within a temperature range of 0 °C to 45 °C and having a storage temperature range of -20 °C to 70 °C, the PCI-6561 is built to perform reliably in a variety of environmental conditions, ensuring durability and longevity in demanding applications.
