1 Taking Measurements with the NI PXI-562x The NI PXI-5620 is a 64 Ms/s, 14-bit frequency-domain digitizer module optimized for the best possible noise and distortion performance in a 5–25 MHz passband. It has a –3 dB front-end bandwidth from 10 kHz to 36 MHz, and is always AC-coupled, meaning it does not admit DC components of a signal. The NI PXI-5621 is a DC-coupled version of the NI PXI-5620, optimized for a passband of 0–25 MHz. Except for its permanent DC coupling and wider front-end bandw

2 Hardware Overview This chapter provides an overview of the features and functionality of the NI 562x. How the NI 562x Works A signal follows this path through the NI 562x to the host computer: 1. The signal enters the NI 562x through the analog front panel connector, INPUT. Refer to the Connecting Signals section to find more about the front panel. 2. The signal is filtered and conditioned. Gain and dither are applied to the signal. Refer to the Conditioning the Signal—Impedance, Dither, Gain,

Chapter 2 Hardware Overview Connecting Signals Figure 2-2 shows the NI 562x front panel, which contains three connectors: two SMA connectors and an SMB connector. One of the SMA connectors, INPUT, is for attaching the analog input signal you want to measure. The second SMA connector, REF CLK IN, is a 50 Ω , 10 MHz, AC-coupled reference input. The SMB connector, PFI1, is for external digital triggers. 562x 64 MS/s Digitizer INPUT 50 +20 dBm MAX REF CLK IN 50 +16 dBm MAX PFI 1 Figure 2-2. NI

Chapter 2 Hardware Overview Conditioning the Signal—Impedance, Dither, Gain, and AC Coupling To minimize distortion, signals receive a minimal amount of conditioning. Gain and coupling are nonadjustable. The NI PXI-5620 is AC coupled, meaning it rejects any DC signal components. The NI PXI-5621 is DC coupled, meaning its wider passband acquires DC signal components also. Both versions of the NI 562x digitizer module have a set input impedance of 50 Ω and may apply dither to the input signal. Inp

Chapter 2 Hardware Overview Incorporating the DDC Optionally, you can route the data through the DDC before storing it in onboard memory. The DDC is a digital signal processing (DSP) chip, the Intersil HSP50214B. The first stage uses a digital quadrature mixer that shifts a signal to baseband from any frequency within the range of the digitizer. The next stage decimates (reduces the sample rate) by an integer from 4–16,384. A series of programmable digital lowpass filters prior to each stage of
