National Instruments 779171-01 PCI Oscilloscope

The 779171-01 from National Instruments is the identifying part number for the version of the PCI-5124 Oscilloscope that has 8 MB of onboard memory per channel. This versatile oscilloscope boasts 150 MHz of bandwidth in most input ranges and two simultaneously sampled analog input channels. These channels have BNC connectors, enabling easy connectivity. The memory capacity of the 779171-01 includes an impressive maximum of 21,845 records, allowing the oscilloscope to record and store large amounts of data. While the oscilloscope draws in power currents from 4 different power rails, it has an overall total power of 19.4 W. 

The sample clock of the 779171-01 has both an internal and an external source. Internally, the sample clock of the oscilloscope is sourced through an internal VCXO onboard clock, while it is sourced externally through a front panel SMB connector. The time base frequency of the onboard clock is 200 MHz, and it features a real-time sampling rate range of 3.052 kS/s to 200 MS/s. For the external CLK IN sample clock, the frequency range spans from 50 MHz to 210 MHz.

There is a variety of trigger types supported by the 779171-01 oscilloscope, including edge, digital, software, window, immediate, and hysteresis. These different trigger types allow the user to precisely control when the oscilloscope starts to acquire and record waveform data, making it easy to examine specific patterns from the input signal. 

The robust 779171-01 meets the requirements for multiple electrical equipment safety standards, operating most effectively in temperatures ranging from 0 °C to 45 °C. When in storage, the device can be safely kept within temperatures ranging from -40 °C to 71 °C. Physically, the 779171-01 measures 35.5 cm × 2.0 cm × 11.3 cm (14.0 in × 0.8 in × 4.4 in) in dimensions, and it weighs in at 455 g (16 oz).
