Description
The NI PXIE-5651 3.3 GHZ RF Analog Signal Generator, part number 781216-01, is a high-performance device categorized under Signal Generators. This model is designed to meet a variety of testing and measurement needs with its wide frequency range from 500 kHz to 3.3 GHz. The frequency resolution is remarkably precise, ranging from <3 Hz to 6 Hz, allowing for fine adjustments to be made to the signal’s frequency.
With a maximum output power of 12 dBm, it is capable of generating strong signals for various applications. The typical tuning time of just 1.5 ms ensures quick adjustments and setups, making it highly efficient for fast-paced environments. The device boasts an impressive reference clock internal accuracy of ±3 ppm (max initial), which can be further refined to ±1 ppm (max at 15 °C to 35 °C), ensuring highly accurate signal generation.
It features an internal reference output frequency of 10 MHZ, with an output impedance of 50 Ω, and provides an amplitude (internal reference output) of 1 Vpk-pk into 50 Ω. Additionally, the external reference input frequency is 10 MHz ±10 ppm, with an input impedance also at 50 Ω. The amplitude for external reference input varies from 0.2 Vpk-pk to 1.5 Vpk-pk into 50 Ω, allowing for flexible connection to external sources.
This signal generator requires a power requirement of 1 A max at +3.3 V and +12 V, making it relatively low power for its capabilities. Its modulation capability is extensive, including AM, FM, PM, Pulse, Continuous-W
