PXIe-5842 Product Overview

What is the PXIe-5842?The PXIe-5842 is a modular RF vector signal transceiver (VST). The PXIe-5842

module combines with other modules to form complete PXIe-5842 instruments.

The PXIe-5842 combines a vector signal generator and vector signal analyzer with

FPGA-based, real-time signal processing and control.

The PXIe-5842 name encompasses the following instruments:
