NI PXI-6552

100 MHz Digital Stimulus/Response Instrument

  • 100 MHz maximum clock rate
  • -2.0 to 5.5 V voltage levels, programmable in 10 mV steps (VOH, VIH, VOL and VIL)
  • 20 channels with per-cycle, per-channel bidirectional control
  • 1, 8, or 64 Mb/channel onboard memory
  • Real-time hardware comparison of acquired response data
  • NI Synchronization and Memory Core (SMC) device for subnanosecond multidevice synchronization

The NI PXI-6552 is a 100 MHz digital waveform generator/analyzer. It features 20 channels with programmable voltage levels and per-clock cycle, per-channel direction control. The module contains deep onboard memory with triggering and pattern sequencing. The latest version of NI-HSDIO driver software adds the ability to perform on-the-fly comparisons of expected data with acquired response data. With these module features, you can implement a wide range of digital stimulus-response applications, such as functional testing of memory chips and bidirectional communication.

The NI Digital Waveform Editor is an interactive software tool that you can use with NI 6552 devices to quickly and easily create, edit, and import digital waveforms. NI includes the Digital Waveform Editor free of charge with the 8 and 64 Mb/channel models.

For more information on the new ATE features of the high-speed waveform generator/analyzer, read the white paper under the Resources tab.
