The NI PXI-5124 uses the high-speed PCI bus and the scatter-gather bus mastering of the NI MITE ASIC to move data to the computer at speeds up to 100 times faster than traditional instrument interfaces, thereby dramatically decreasing overall test time. With the Synchronization and Memory Core (SMC) architecture of the PXI-5124, you can create mixed-signal systems using signal generators and digital waveform generator/analyzers or build a high-channel-count digitizer with subnanosecond synchronization between channels. • Edge, window, hysteresis, video, digital, triggering with 50 ps timestamping • Pre and posttrigger acquisition in single and multiple-record mode • Internal 200 MHz clock or external clock from 50 to 210 MHz • Phase lock to PXI 10 MHz reference or external reference from 1 to 20 MHz Dual 200 MS/s, 12-Bit Input Channels for Time and Frequency Analysis • 150 MHz input bandwidth with anti-alias and noise filters • >75 dBc spurious free dynamic range (SFDR) • 4.0 GS/s equivalent time sampling for repetitive signals • Independent channel selectable 200 mVpp to 20 Vpp input ranges • Independent channel selectable 50 Ω or 1 MΩ input impedance • 2-year calibration cycle and 0 to 55 ˚C operating temperature Software • IVI-compliant NI-SCOPE driver for LabVIEW, LabWindows/CVI, and Microsoft C++ and Visual Basic with more than 50 built-in measurements • SCOPE Soft Front Panel for interactive control • Spectral Measurements Toolkit for sophisticated frequency-domain measurements in communications, signal intelligence, and avionics applications Applications Communications xDSL Wireless communications Baseband I & Q Consumer Electronics DVD, DVD-R, and PVR Set top box Gaming console Biomedical and Scientific Research Ultrasonic medical imaging Mass spectrometry Particle physics Aerospace/Defense Emulation of IC communications Consumer Electronics RADAR, SONAR, and LIDAR Satellite Signal intelligence Ordering Information Deep Onboard Memory • 8, 32, 256, or 512 MB of memory per channel • Capture more than 1 million triggered waveforms with multiple record hardware rearm • Stream data continuously from onboard memory to host memory or disk NI PXI-5124 ..............................................................778757-0M1 Includes NI-SCOPE driver and SCOPE Soft Front Panel. 32, 256, and 512 MB models include NI Spectral Measurements Toolkit. 1M (memory per channel): 1 (8 MB), 2 (32 MB), (256 MB), 4 (512 MB) Recommended PXI Switch NI PXI-2593 ..................................................................778793-01 150 MHz, 200 MS/s, 12-Bit Digitizer Specifications These specifications are valid for 0 to 55 ˚C, unless otherwise stated.
