Description
The Part Number 778283-01 refers to a high-performance RF Downconverter, specifically the model PXI-5600. This device is designed to fit into a 3U PXI module form factor, making it compatible with standardized PXI chassis. It boasts a real-time bandwidth of 20 MHz, allowing for efficient signal processing within a broad range.
The frequency range of this downconverter spans from 9 kHz to 2.7 GHz, providing a wide spectrum for various RF applications. It features an impressive noise density of <-140 dBm/Hz, ensuring minimal background noise during signal conversion. The spurious-free dynamic range is greater than 80 dB, offering high fidelity in signal translation without unwanted harmonics.
With a phase noise of <-94 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset, the PXI-5600 guarantees high signal purity and stability. This is further supported by a timebase stability of ±20 ppb and a frequency accuracy of ±50 ppb, ensuring precise measurements and consistency in performance over time.
For operation, the PXI-5600 requires NI-RFSA 2.1, NIPXI-5600 Support driver, and is compatible with programming environments such as LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and Microsoft C/C++. This provides flexibility in application development and integration into existing systems.
The unit includes multiple connectors such as FREQ REF IN, 10 MHz OUT, PXI 10 MHz I/O, OUTPUT, and INPUT, offering versatile connectivity options for various test setups. It is recommended to allow a warm-up time of 20 minutes for optimal performance, and to adhere to a calibration period of either annually or every two years
