- Up to 400 MS/s effective sampling rate with interpolation
- 8, 32, 256, or 512 MB of onboard memory
- 91 dBc close-in SFDR and -62 dBc THD at 10 MHz

- Optional 16-bit LVDS digital pattern output
National Instruments 5421 devices are 100 MS/s arbitrary waveform generators (AWGs) with 16-bit resolution and up to 512 MB of onboard memory for PCI or PXI. With this combination of high-resolution and deep memory, you can generate long, precise, aperiodic waveforms, ideal for a range of applications in communications, consumer electronics, scientific research, automotive, and military/aerospace. Because NI 5421 arbs use the PCI-based PXI platform, waveforms can be downloaded up to 280 times faster than with GPIB-based AWGs. With the RTSI bus and PXI timing and synchronization and the Synchronization and Memory Core (SMC)architecture of the NI 5421, you can create stimulus/response systems with digitizers and high-speed digital I/O or synchronize multiple arbitrary waveform generators to form a phase-coherent multichannel generation system.
