Description
The PXI-5650 is a signal generator that falls under the category of Signal Generators and is specifically designed as a 1.3 GHz RF Signal Generators and CW Source. This model is known for its versatility and high performance in generating signals within the frequency range of 500 kHz to 1.3 GHz. It has a part number listed as 191967C-01, although the actual part number is 779670-00.
One of the key features of the PXI-5650 is its modulation capabilities, which include FM, 2-FSK, and OOK. These capabilities are powered by the Direct Digital Synthesis (DDS) modulation method, offering precise control over the signal’s properties. The maximum output power of this device is 12 dBm, and it incorporates a 200 MHz VCXO framework clock that can be phase-locked to an external 10 MHz clock, ensuring high stability and accuracy in signal generation.
Additionally, the DDS output of the PXI-5650 can reach up to 50 MHz, making it suitable for a wide range of applications. This signal generator is compatible with NI-RFSG driver, LabVIEW, and LabWindows/CVI software, ensuring easy integration into various test and measurement setups. The device requires a warm-up time of 30 minutes to operate at its best performance and recommends a calibration period either annually or every two years to maintain accuracy.
The PXI-5650 has a weight of 14.6 oz and dimensions of 8.5 x 0.8 x 5.1 inches, making it compact and easy to integrate into a variety of PXI systems. It is designed to operate within a temperature range of 0 °C to 55 °C and can be stored within a temperature range of -40 °C to 70 °C. The humidity range for operation is 10% to 90%, and for storage
