National Instruments PXI-5411 PXI Arbitrary Waveform Generator

The NI PXI-5411 High-Speed PXI Arbitrary Waveform Generator incorporates a few VirtualBench soft front boards to enable the user to get up and running rapidly with their Waveform Generator. These soft front boards are an onscreen interface like independent instruments. A NI-FGEN instrument driver is likewise included, which can be used with a wide assortment of advancement devices to construct applications for the National Instruments PXI-5411.

The NI PXI-5411 Waveform Generator includes a VirtualBench function. Like independent instruments, VirtualBench obtains, controls, analyzes, and presents data. Since VirtualBench works on a PC, it gives extra processing, storage, and display abilities. VirtualBench loads and saves waveform information in a form that popular spreadsheet programs and word processors can utilize. It can likewise create reports—a complement to the raw information storage—by including timestamps, estimations, client names, and remarks. The user can additionally print the waveforms and the settings of VirtualBench to a printer associated with the PC.

The NI PXI-5411 stores arbitrary waveforms in memory as 16-bit digital words. Only the 12 most noteworthy bits are sent to the computerized channel and the DAC.  On the PXI-5411 Arbitrary Waveform Generator, trigger sources are programming selectable. As a matter of course, the PXI-5411 High-Speed Waveform Generator creates the trigger sources, so the user can utilize an outside trigger from a pin on the computerized I/O connector, the RTSI trigger lines on the RTSI transport, or the TTL trigger lines on the PXI trigger bus on the backplane.
