Description

The National Instruments PXI-5422 is a 200 MS/s arbitrary waveform generator featuring 16-bit resolution and up to 512 MB of onboard memory in a compact, 1 slot 3U PXI module. Because the NI PXI-5422 uses the PCI-based PXI platform,waveforms can be downloaded at up to 84 MB/s, far faster than traditional GPIB-based instruments. Using the Synchronization and Memory Core (SMC) architecture of the PXI-5422, you can create mixed signal test systems by synchronizing the generator with digitizers and digital waveform generator/analyzers or synchronize multiple arbitrary waveform generators to form a phase-coherent multichannel generator. Exceptional Time and Frequency-Domain Performance

  • 1.8 ns rise time, 6% pulse aberration
  • -60 dBc (0.1%) total harmonic distortion (THD) at 10 MHz
  • -139 dBm/Hz average noise density
  • -81 dBc intermodulation distortion (IMD) with intermediate frequency (IF) optimized direct path
  • < 1.3 ps rms jitter -138 dBc/Hz phase noise (10 MHz carrier, 10 kHz offset) Triggering and Sequencing
  • Four triggering modes – single, continuous, stepped, and burst
  • Up to 2 million waveform segments
  • Up to 3 million sequence instructions (links and loops)
  • Segment looping up to 16,777,216 times or infinitely Timing and Synchronization
  • Multi-instrument synchronization with <20 psrms of skew
  • 3 sample clock sources – Divide-by-N, High-Resolution, and External.
  • 1.06 µHz sample rate resolution with high-resolution clock
  • Phase lock to external reference or the PXI 10 MHz reference clock Software
  • NI Analog Waveform Editor for creating frequency and time-domain signals
  • NI-FGEN instrument driver with LabVIEW Express VIs for function and arbitrary waveform generation
  • FGEN Soft Front Panel for interactive control
