Description
The Part Number 777406-01 corresponds to a sophisticated PC-based Arbitrary Waveform Generator, specifically the Model PCI-5411. This device is designed to enhance the capabilities of generating arbitrary waveforms for a multitude of applications. It proudly features the NI 5411 for PCI, which can achieve a 40 MS/s Arbitrary Waveform Generator with 4 MB of memory, empowering users with high-speed performance and ample memory for complex waveform generation.
The generator provides a single 12-bit analog, DC-coupled output channel, ensuring precise and reliable waveform output. When it comes to frequency capabilities, it boasts a Maximum Frequency (TTL) of 16 MHz and can achieve up to 1 MHz for Square, Ramp, and Triangle waveforms. The frequency resolution in DDS Mode is remarkable at 9.31 MHz, supported by a robust 32 bits DDS Accumulator Resolution, allowing for precise frequency tuning.
The device’s sampling rate is impressively high, offering rates Up to 40 MS/s, which enables the generation of highly detailed and complex waveforms. Users have the flexibility to select between 50 Ω nominal or 75 Ω high impedance for the output impedance options, affecting the voltage output which depends on the selected impedance.
Moreover, the generator supports advanced Waveform Generation Support for FM and AM modulation, allowing for a wide range of signal generation capabilities. Control and integration of the device are facilitated through software, specifically VirtualBench-FG or VirtualBench-ARB and NI-FGEN driver software, enhancing user experience and device functionality. For development, it is compatible with Supported ADEs such as LabVIEW, VB, C/C++ environments, providing versatility for various programming needs.
Despite its advanced features, it is important to note that this model has reached Obsolete Status as announced by National Instruments. However
