National Instruments 780419-01 PXI Waveform Generator

The part number 780419-01 from National Instruments is the identifying part number for the PXIe-5450 PXI Waveform Generator. This waveform generator is a part of PXI Express (PXIe) platform, which offers high bandwidth and low latency for data transfer, making it ideal for applications requiring precise timing and synchronization. It features 2 analog output channels with a differential output type and direct output path and 16 bits DAC resolution. It also offers 145 MHz analog baseband bandwidth with a complex baseband of 290 MHz when used with external I/Q modulator and a 4-pole analog filter for image suppression.

This 780419-01 PXI Waveform Generator consist of onboard sample clock with a rate ranging from 12.2 kS/s to 400 MS/s and a frequency resolution <5.7 μHz with a clock delay of 0 ns to 2 ns per channel and clock delay resolution of 10 ps nominal. It also features external sample clock in front of panel connectors, with multiplication and division with sampling rate of 10 MS/s, 20 MS/s to 400 MS/s and a sample clock rate range of 12.2 kS/s to 400 MS/s. The 780419-01 Digital Waveform Generator supports a variety of triggering and event capabilities, ensuring precise control over test execution. These triggers can be configured as start trigger edge, script trigger edge and level, software trigger. 

The PXI module supports 3U, two-slot and has physical dimensions of 21.6 cm × 4.0 cm × 13.0 cm (8.5 in. × 1.6 in. × 5.1 in.) and weighs 476 g (17 oz). It is designed to be intended for indoor use only and can be mounted at an altitude of 2000 meters with a pollution degree of 2. It is made to operate at an ambient temperature of 0 to 55 degrees Celsius and storage temperature of -25 to 85 degrees Celsius. Its operating humidity is 10% to 90%, noncondensing and its storage humidity range is 5% to 95%, noncondensing.

The 780419-01 module has a typical power consumption of 1.9 A and 2.0 A maximum at +3.3 VDC while 2.2 A typical current and 2.5 A maximum at +12 VDC. Its total typical power is 32.7 W and 36.6 W maximum. It is designed to withstand operational shocks of 30 g peak, half-sine, 11 ms pulse with operating random vibrations of 5 Hz to 500 Hz, 0.3 grms.
