High-Speed Digitizers – Optimized for Automated Test

Overview

NI 515x high-speed digitizers/PC-based

oscilloscopes provide the industry’s

first gigahertz solutions optimized for

automated test. A digitizer optimized

for automated test leverages a high-

throughput bus to lower test times,

provides picosecond-level synchronization

between modules, and integrates with

the entire suite of NI hardware –

including arbitrary waveform generators,

high-speed digital I/O, and other

digitizers – so you can build and

customize a complete mixed-signal

or high-channel-count test system.

Dual 1 GS/s, 8-Bit Input Channels

• 2 GS/s real-time sampling on 1 channel

• 1 GS/s real-time sampling on 2 channels, simultaneously sampled

• 1 GHz (NI 5154), 500 MHz (NI 5153), or 300 MHz (NI 5152) input

bandwidth with noise filters

• 20 GS/s equivalent-time sampling (ETS) for repetitive signals

• 2-year calibration interval and 0 to +55 °C operating temperature

Deep Onboard Memory

• Take advantage of 8, 64, or 256 MB of memory per channel

• Capture more than 1 million triggered waveforms in multiple record

mode with trigger rearm time as fast as 1 µs

• Stream data continuously from onboard memory to host memory or disk

Triggering, Clocking, and Synchronization

• Edge, window, hysteresis, and digital triggering with 5 ps timestamping

• Pretrigger and posttrigger acquisition in single- and

multiple-record mode

• Internal 1 GHz clock or external clock from 350 MHz to 1 GHz

• Phase lock to PXI 10 MHz reference or external reference from

1 to 20 MHz
