Key Features
The PXI-1052 chassis combines a high-performance 4-slot PXI subsystem
with an 8-slot SCXI subsystem, offering a complete solution for signal
conditioning and switching applications. The PXI-1052 complies with the
PXI Hardware Specification
,
Revision 2.1
, offering advanced timing and
synchronization features. The eight SCXI slots integrate signal
conditioning modules into the PXI system. These modules provide analog
and digital signal conditioning, isolation, and other functions. The
PXI-1052 has a high-output power supply and structural design that is
optimized for use in a wide range of applications.
The PXI-1052 has a built-in digital and analog bus between the PXI and
SCXI subsystems that allows a DAQ/DMM module in the fourth PXI slot
to control the SCXI subsystem without additional cables. The SCXI
subsystem provides a low-noise environment for signal conditioning
instrumentation. It supplies power and control circuitry for SCXI modules.
The key features of the PXI-1052 include the following:
•
PXI and CompactPCI (PICMG 2.0 R 3.0) module compatibility
•
3U-sized, 4-slot PXI chassis subsystem
•
Universal AC input: automatic voltage and frequency ranging
•
Temperature-sensing module that adjusts fan speed based on air-intake
temperature to minimize audible noise
