DEVICE SPECIFICATIONS PXIe-6570 32-Channel Digital Pattern Instrument This document lists the specifications for the PXIe-6570. When using the PXIe-6570 in the Semiconductor Test System, refer to the Semiconductor Test System Specifications. Specifications are subject to change without notice. Refer to ni.com/manuals for the most recent specifications. NI defines the capabilities and performance of its Test & Measurement instruments as Warranted specifications, Typical specifications, and Characteristics. Warranted specifications describe the warranted, traceable product performance, including the effects of temperature and uncertainty unless otherwise noted. Typical specifications are unwarranted values that are representative of a majority of units, including the effects of temperature and uncertainty unless otherwise noted. Characteristics are unwarranted values that are relevant to the use of the product and convey the expected performance of the product. Specifications in this document are Characteristics unless otherwise noted. Specifications are valid under the following conditions unless otherwise noted: 0 C to 45 C operating temperature. Accuracy specifications are valid within ±5 ºC of the last self-calibration temperature. The PXIe-6570 is within the 1 year recommended calibration interval. The DUT Ground Sense (DGS) is the same potential as the Ground (GND) pins. Note The DGS feature is only available on PXIe-6570 module revisions 158234C-xxL or later. Chassis fans are set to the highest setting if the PXI Express chassis supports multiple fans speeds. Allow a 30 minute warm-up time. Caution Do not operate the PXIe-6570 in a manner not specified in the user documentation. Product misuse can result in a hazard. You can compromise the safety protection built into the product if the product is damaged in any way. If the product is damaged, return it to NI for repair.
