National Instruments PXI-5122 Oscilloscope

The National Instruments PXI-5122 is a 100 MS per second digitizer perfect for an extensive variety of utilizations in communications, research, and customer gadgets. The PXI-5122 comes in several different models: 8 MB (Part Number: 778756-01), 32 MB (Part Number: 778756-02), 256 MB (Part Number: 778756-03), and 512 MB (Part Number: 778756-04).

The NI PXI-5122 digitizer utilizes 14-bit-analog-to-digital converters (ADCs), low-noise variable-gain intensifiers, a low-jitter 100 MHz time-base to convey a 75 dBc spurious free dynamic range, and a 62 dB signal-to-noise proportion. The 14-bit data converters have 64 times the determination of customary 8-bit instruments, giving more exact time and recurrence area estimations. This digitizer incorporates software selectable 50 Ω or 1 Mω input impedance, input ranges from 200 mVpp to 20 Vpp, seven trigger modes, and anti-alias and noise filters that make the NI PXI-5122 digitizer sufficiently flexible to meet the most requesting application necessities.

The device operates using the NI-SCOPE driver software media provided by National Instruments, and is compatible with software packages/application development environments such as LabVIEW or LabWindows/CVI. The hardware can be configured using the Measurement & Automation Explorer (MAX) tool. Also, the device is equipped with 3 BNC female, a 9-pin mini-circular DIN, and 2 SMB jack front panel connectors.

The programmable DC counterbalance highlight incorporated in this model amplifies the utilization of the whole 14 bits of vertical range. Locally available self-adjustment additionally guarantees estimation solidness over the whole working temperature scope from 0 to 55 °C. The PXI-5122 is a self-calibrated device which can also be calibrated externally. External calibration should be carried out at least once in two years.

In light of the SMC architecture, the NI PXI-5122, accompanies fast memory options from 8 to 512 MB for each channel (4 to 256 million 14-bit samples per channel). This model can get more than 1 million triggered waveforms without software intervention in numerous record acquisition mode for applications like RADAR, ultrasound, and event identification. The device has a recommended warm-up time of 15 minutes.

PXI-5122 Mature Status has been announced by National Instruments, but the oscilloscope will still be available for purchase and repairs by Apex Waves.

The PXI-5122 is available to be calibrated. While the recommended calibration period for individual parts varies, most parts should be calibrated either annually or every two years to ensure accuracy. If you need the PXI-5122 calibrated, Apex Waves provides options. We offer high-quality NIST accredited calibrations through a 3rd party, with an average turnaround time of 1 to 2 weeks. When you order the PXI-5122 with us, you can request basic (unaccredited) in-house calibration that will calibrate the part to the manufacturer specifications prior to being shipped.
