National Instruments has announced the NI PXIe-5162
digitizer and updates to the LabVIEW Jitter Analysis Toolkit. The digitizer,
with 10 bits of vertical resolution and a 5 GS/s sample rate, provides
high-speed measurements at four times the vertical resolution of a traditional
8-bit oscilloscope. With 1.5 GHz of bandwidth and four channels in a single
slot, the NI PXIe-5162 is suited for high-channel-count digitizer systems in
manufacturing test, research and device characterization. Engineers can use the
digitizer with LabVIEW and the LabVIEW Jitter Analysis
Toolkit, which provides a library of functions optimized for performing the
high-throughput jitter, eye diagram and phase noise measurements demanded by
automated validation and production test environments.
“The combination of high-speed, high-channel and high-resolution measurements offered by the NI PXIe-5162 digitizer makes it possible for traditional oscilloscope customers to think beyond traditional box instruments for automated test,” said Steve Warntjes, NI director of modular instruments research and development. “Using our high-speed digitizers with the LabVIEW Jitter Analysis Toolkit helps engineers accelerate their measurement systems using the processing power of modern PCs instead of the legacy embedded processors on box oscilloscopes.”
