NI 5412 Specifications

NI PXI/PCI-5412 14-Bit 100 MS/s Arbitrary Waveform Generator

Unless otherwise noted, the following conditions were used for each
specification:
• Interpolation set to maximum allowed factor for a given sample rate.
• Signals terminated with 50 Ω.
• Low-Gain Amplifier Path set to 2 Vpk-pk, andHigh-Gain Amplifier
Path set to 12 Vpk-pk.
• Sample clock set to 100 MS/s.
Typical values are representative of an average unit operating at room
temperature. Specifications are subject to change without notice. For the
most recent NI 5412 specifications, visit ni.com/manuals.
To access all the NI 5412 documentation, including the NI Signal
Generators Getting Started Guide, which contains functional descriptions
