MULTIFUNCIONAL ANALOG AND DIGITAL I/O DEVICES

We offer several PXI chassis incorporating a controller and various multi-channel I/O modules (analogue, digital or mixed) to create several instruments adaptable to multiple test and measurement applications. The originality of this modular, synchronous and standardised solution is that it can rapidly offer several specific instruments for generating, acquiring, storing and analysing different signals in a single chassis. National Instrument's programming environment enables software applications to be created or used to drive the equipment, process and analyse the stored data and/or display it in continuous time.

Applications

There are numerous test and measurement applications, the only limits of which depend on the technical characteristics of the equipment.
- Data and control generation (DAC) and acquisition (ADC)
- Instrumentation (function generator, AWG, digital signals, oscilloscope, spectrum analyser, etc.)
- Wireless communication testing (real-time acquisition and generation of baseband or IF)
