National Instruments 780993-02 PXI Digital Waveform Instrument

The 780993-02 from National Instruments is the identifying part number for the version of the PXIe-6545 PXI Digital Waveform Instrument that has 8 MB of  onboard memory per channel. This robust waveform instrument boasts 32 single data rate and 4 programmable function interface channels. Each of these channels feature direction control, which allows the configurations to be specifically tailored for individual test setups. Additionally, these channels allow the user to efficiently manage and manipulate digital signals. 

Comprehensive software and drivers support the applications of the 780993-02. The NI-HSDIO is an IVI-compliant driver that allows users to calibrate, control, and configure the waveform instrument. It provides the device with programming interfaces including but not limited to LabVIEW, LabWindows, and .NET. When NI MAX is utilized with the NI-HSDIO driver, the user can directly interact with the settings for configuration and test tools. This comprehensive software support helps users harness the full range of capabilities offered by the 780993-02, making it an excellent choice to precisely control and analyze digital waveforms across numerous applications. 

The 780993-02 meets all of the requirements set by the Electromagnetic Compatibility Directive. To ensure that the device is achieving optimal functionality under these standards, verify that all of the cables and accessories used with the waveform instrument are shielded and are no longer than 3 m (10 ft) in length. Secondly, it is best practice to install PXI EMC filler panels into all of the open chassis slots when in use. 

The 780993-02 warms up and is ready for operation within 15 minutes. Designed for indoor use, the device requires a total 33.5 W of power at maximum. The 780993-02 has dimensions of 21.6 cm x 2.0 cm x 13.0 cm in dimensions, and it weighs in at only 519 g (18.3 oz).
