Description
The PXI-5142 is a digital oscilloscope that comes with part numbers 195003E-01L, 779587-02, and 779587-01. It offers a selection of memory sizes with 256 MB available for the model number 779587-02 and 64 MB for the model number 779587-01. This oscilloscope features 2 channels and provides a maximum bandwidth of 40 MHz, coupled with a sample rate of 100 MS/s.
Users have the flexibility to select the input impedance between 50 Ω or 1 MΩ, according to their testing requirements. The input range of this device is quite versatile, ranging from 200 mV to 20 V, allowing for a wide variety of signal measurements. An essential feature of the PXI-5142 is its Onboard Signal Processing (OSP), which enhances signal analysis capabilities.
The device is supported by NI-SCOPE driver software, ensuring seamless integration and operation. It is compatible with various Application Development Environments (ADEs) including LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and Measurement Studio, facilitating a broad range of development options for users. Configuration and management of the PXI-5142 are streamlined through the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) tool.
Before using the PXI-5142, a warm-up time of 15 minutes is recommended to ensure optimal performance. To maintain accuracy and reliability, a calibration period is suggested annually or every two years. Lastly, the device weighs 16.2 oz, making it a relatively lightweight addition to any testing setup.
