Product Overview

PXI-5405 provides sixteen independent waveform-output channels in a compact 3U CPCI/PXI module. The module is designed for automated test systems that require multi-channel low-frequency function generation with software-controlled waveform output.

Key Features

  • Sixteen Output Channels: Sixteen mutually independent signal channels support dense multi-point waveform generation.
  • 16-Bit DAC Resolution: Each channel provides 16-bit digital-to-analog output resolution.
  • Standard Waveforms: Sine, square, triangle, and DC output modes are supported.
  • 500 kSa Conversion Rate: The module supports up to 500 kSa conversion rate for waveform output.
  • 20 kHz Output Range: Output frequency can be configured from 1 to 20 kHz.
  • PXI Integration: The 3U single-width 4HP form factor supports chassis-based test-system integration.

Typical Applications

  • PXI stimulus generation for automated test
  • Multi-channel waveform output in validation fixtures
  • Production test benches requiring programmable outputs
