The\u00a0National Instruments Digitizers\/Oscilloscopes<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0are available for several buses: PCI, PXI, PXIe, and USB. NI-SCOPE driver software can be used with\u00a0National Instruments Digitizers<\/strong>. NI-SCOPE allows for easy integration with Visual C++, Visual Basic, NI LabVIEW, and NI Measurement Studio and is compliant with the IVI-Scope driver class specification. NI-SCOPE does not entail programming when it is utilized with the Scope Soft Front Panel. This driver software can accomplish numerous board synchronization and ongoing acquisition and comes with over 50 built-in measurement and assessment functions.<\/p>\n

National Instruments Oscilloscopes<\/strong>\u00a0should be used with certain types of probes. Selecting the correct probe is an important part of an analog measurement system. There are active, current, and passive oscilloscope probes. Active probes are suitable when low capacitance is necessary when a measurement requires isolation from a ground reference or for high-frequency measurements. Current probes are best for applications that involve viewing a current signal in relation to a voltage line. Lastly, passive probes have the largest range of use in measurement applications; they contain solely passive circuit elements. An important fact to note is that\u00a0National Instruments Oscilloscope Probes<\/strong>\u00a0have BNC connections, but some\u00a0PXI Oscilloscopes<\/strong>\u00a0have SMB or SMA front panel connectors, which will need adapters for use with these probes.<\/p>\n

One type of\u00a0Digitizer<\/strong>\u00a0manufactured by\u00a0National Instruments<\/strong>\u00a0is the\u00a0PXI IF Digitizer<\/strong>. These models assess intermediate frequency or IF information for utilization in superheterodyne receiver architectures or communications applications. The\u00a0National Instruments PXI Digitizers<\/strong>\u00a0have features such as onboard signal processing, also referred to as OSP, which allows quadrature digital downconversion, anti-alias filtering, and real digital downconversion. The\u00a0PXIe-5622<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>is a\u00a0PXI IF Digitizer<\/strong>\u00a0with 1 channel, 64 or 256 MB onboard memory, 16 bits resolution, and 250 MHz maximum bandwidth.<\/p>\n

There are also\u00a0PXI Oscilloscopes<\/strong>, which assess and obtain time- and frequency-domain analog signals as part of a PXI system. For example, the\u00a0NI PXI-5105<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>has three variations available with an onboard memory size of either 16 MB, 128 MB, or 512 MB. The largest onboard memory size available is 2 GB with the\u00a0PXIe-5160<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0PXIe-5162<\/a><\/strong>. The\u00a0PXI-5922<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0has the highest resolution size at 24 bits and is considered one of the most sensitive analog signal measurement devices available. The maximum bandwidth for the\u00a0NI PXI Oscilloscopes<\/strong>\u00a0ranges from 60 MHz to 5 GHz. These\u00a0Oscilloscopes<\/strong>\u00a0have as many as eight channels and the capability to synchronize several\u00a0oscilloscopes<\/strong>\u00a0with other devices at extremely precise levels for mixed-signal and high-channel-count applications.<\/p>\n

Other types of\u00a0Digitizers\/Oscilloscopes<\/strong>\u00a0by\u00a0NI<\/strong>\u00a0include\u00a0C Series Digitizer Modules<\/strong>,\u00a0PXI FlexRIO Digitizers<\/strong>, and\u00a0Digitizer Adapter Modules for FlexRIO<\/strong>.\u00a0NI Oscilloscopes<\/strong>\u00a0have a self-calibration feature, which adjusts for all DC gain and offset changes in the device with an exact, high-stability internal voltage. Many of the\u00a0National Instruments Oscilloscopes<\/strong>\u00a0have a two-year external calibration cycle. However, the\u00a0PXIe-5185<\/strong>\u00a0and\u00a0PXIe-5186<\/strong>\u00a0have a one-year calibration interval.<\/p>\n
