National Instruments 779153-01 PXI Oscilloscope

Part number 779153-01 from National Instruments identifies the version of the PXI-5922 Oscilloscope that has 8 MB of onboard memory per channel. This versatile oscilloscope features flexible resolution- depending on the sample rate, the resolution can be adjusted accordingly within a range of 16 to 24 bits. The 2 analog input channels of the device are simultaneously sampled and software-selectable, utilizing BNC connectors for easy connectivity. The 8 MB of onboard memory for both analog input channels results in a maximum of 13,107 records. The 779153-01 offers accurate, high-resolution signal measurements for a wide range of test and measurement applications.

One of the standout features of the 779153-01 is it’s IVI-compliant NI-SCOPE driver, which provides the oscilloscope with programming interfaces, examples, and documents for a variety of application software options. The development environments that are supported by NI-SCOPE include Measurement Studio, .NET, LabVIEW, LabWindows, and Microsoft Visual C/C++.

The 779153-01 offers two options for calibration- either self-calibration or external calibration. The self-calibration option is ideal for situations where correction is needed with ADC nonlinearities, input gain and offset, or input bias current. The external calibration option for the oscilloscope is designed to calibrate either the voltage reference or VCXO of the device. External calibration is recommended for every 2 years.

Designed for indoor use only, the 779153-01 can be operated at altitudes with a maximum of 2,000m. It measures 21.6 cm × 2.0 cm × 13.0 cm (8.5 in × 0.8 in × 5.1 in) in dimensions and weighs only 336 g (11.8 oz).
