NI PCI/PXI-5401
Overview

The NI 5401 is a 16 MHz function generator with the following features:

• One 12-bit resolution output channel
• Up to 16 MHz sine and transistor-transistor logic (TTL) waveform output
• Up to 1 MHz square, triangle, ramp up, and ramp down (DC and noise)
• Software-selectable output impedances of 50 Ω and 75 Ω
• Output attenuation levels from 0 to 73 dB
• Phase-locked loop (PLL) synchronization to external clocks
• Sampling rate of 40 MS/s
• Digital and analog filters
• The Function Generation mode is implemented with 32-bit direct digital synthesis (DDS)
• External trigger input
• Real-Time System Integration (RTSI) and PXI triggers

All NI 5401 signal generators follow industry-standard Plug and Play specifications on both buses and offer seamless integration with compliant systems.

The NI PXI/PCI-5401 Specifications are included with the device and are also available at ni.com/manuals.
