Compliance
FCC/Canada Radio Frequency Interference Compliance*
Determining FCC Class
The Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has rules to protect wireless communications from interference. The FCC
places digital electronics into two classes. These classes are known as Class A (for use in industrial-commercial locations only)
or Class B (for use in residential or commercial locations). Depending on where it is operated, this product could be subject to
restrictions in the FCC rules. (In Canada, the Department of Communications (DOC), of Industry Canada, regulates wireless
interference in much the same way.)
Digital electronics emit weak signals during normal operation that can affect radio, television, or other wireless products. By
examining the product you purchased, you can determine the FCC Class and therefore which of the two FCC/DOC Warnings
apply in the following sections. (Some products may not be labeled at all for FCC; if so, the reader should then assume these are
Class A devices.)
FCC Class A products only display a simple warning statement of one paragraph in length regarding interference and undesired
operation. Most of our products are FCC Class A. The FCC rules have restrictions regarding the locations where FCC Class A
products can be operated.
FCC Class B products display either a FCC ID code, starting with the letters EXN,
or the FCC Class B compliance mark that appears as shown here on the right.
FCC/DOC Warnings
This equipment generates and uses radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in strict accordance with the instructions
in this manual and the CE Mark Declaration of Conformity**, may cause interference to radio and television reception.
Classification requirements are the same for the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and the Canadian Department
of Communications (DOC).
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by National Instruments could void the user’s authority to operate the
equipment under the FCC Rules.
Class A
Federal Communications Commission

Hardware Overview
This chapter provides an overview of the features and functionality of the
NI 5620.
How the NI 5620 Works
A signal follows this path through the NI 5620 to your host computer:
1. The signal enters the NI 5620 through the analog front panel
connector, INPUT. To find more about the front panel, see the
2. The signal is filtered and conditioned. Gain and dither are applied to
and AC Coupling section for more information.
Digitizing the Signal—The ADC section for more information.
4. (Optional) The digital downconverter (DDC) digitally “zooms in”
on data. See the Incorporating the DDC section.
5. The data is sent to onboard memory (the buffer). See the Storing Data
in Memory section for additional information.

Connecting Signals
Figure 2-2 shows the NI 5620 front panel, which contains three
connectors—two SMA connectors and an SMB connector.
One of the SMA connectors, INPUT, is for attaching the analog input signal
you wish to measure. The second SMA connector, REF CLK IN, is a
50 Ω,10 MHz, AC-coupled reference input. The SMB connector, PFI1,
is for external digital triggers.

Chapter 2
Hardware Overview
Conditioning the Signal—Impedance, Dither, Gain, and AC Coupling
To minimize distortion, signals receive a minimal amount of conditioning.
There is one set gain, and all signals are AC coupled, meaning that the
NI 5620 rejects any DC portion of a signal. The NI 5620 also has a set input
impedance of 50 Ω and applies dither to the configurable signal.
Input Impedance
The input impedance of the NI 5620 is 50 Ω. The output impedance of the
source connected to the NI 5620 and the input impedance of the NI 5620
form an impedance divider, which attenuates the input signal according to
the following formula:
Rin
------------------
Vm = Vs ×
Rin + Rs
where Vm is the measured voltage
Vs is the unloaded source voltage
Rs is the output impedance of the external device
Rin is the input impedance of the NI 5620
If the source whose output you are measuring has an output impedance
other than 50 Ω, your measurements will be affected by this impedance
divider. For example, if the device has 75 Ω output impedance, your
measured signal will be 80% of the value it would have been at 50 Ω.
Dither
Dither is random noise added to the input signal between 0 and 5 MHz.
Dither lowers the amount of distortion caused by differential nonlinearity
in the ADC when a signal is digitized. When an FFT is applied to the signal,
this random noise cancels out most of the distortion created by differential
nonlinearity. Dither is not automatically applied, but you can enable it in
software.
Digitizing the Signal—The ADC
Regardless of your requested sample rate, the NI 5620 ADC is always
running at 64 MS/s. If you request a rate less than 64 MS/s, the timing
engine of the NI 5620 stores only 1 sample in a group of n samples,
effectively reducing the sample rate to 64/n MS/s.

Chapter 2
Hardware Overview
Incorporating the DDC
You may optionally route the data through the DDC before storing it in
onboard memory.
The DDC is a digital signal processing (DSP) chip, the Intersil
HSP50214B. The first stage uses a digital quadrature mixer that shifts
a signal to baseband from any frequency within the digitizer’s range.
The next stage decimates (reduces the sample rate) by an integer from 4
to 16384. A series of programmable digital lowpass filters prior to each
stage of decimation prevents aliasing when the sample rate is reduced.
The decimated data may be retrieved as in-phase and quadrature, or as
phase and magnitude. A discriminator allows you to take the derivative
of the phase to demodulate an FM signal.
By mixing, filtering, and decimating the sampled data, the DDC allows
you to zoom in on a band of frequencies much narrower than the Nyquist
band of the ADC. The lower sample rate means that signals of longer
duration can be stored in the same amount of memory. For spectral analysis,
a smaller, faster FFT may be used to look at only the band passed through
the DDC.
Refer to the NI-SCOPE VI Reference Help for specific DDC attributes
you can use to program your NI 5620. If you installed the included
measurement software, there is also online help for LabVIEW users using
the DDC.
Storing Data in Memory
Samples are acquired into onboard memory on the NI 5620 before being
transferred to the host computer. The minimum size for a buffer is
approximately 256 samples, although you can specify smaller buffers in
software. When specifying a smaller buffer size, the minimum number of
points are still acquired into onboard memory, but only the specified
number of points are retrieved into the host computer’s memory.
During the acquisition, samples are stored in a circular buffer that is
continually rewritten until a trigger is received. After the trigger is received,
the NI 5620 continues to acquire posttrigger samples if you have specified
a posttrigger sample count. The acquired samples are placed into onboard
memory. The number of posttrigger or pretrigger samples is limited only by
the amount of onboard memory.

The digital downconverter is a digital signal processor (DSP) that allows
you to digitally zoom in on data, which reduces the amount of data
transferred into memory and speeds up the rate of data transfer. The digital
downconverter does this by frequency-translating, filtering, and decimating
signals after they go through the ADC. See the Incorporating the DDC
section for more information.
The PLL uses a phase dectetor to synchronize the acquisition clock to
either a 10 MHz reference clock supplied through REF CLK IN or to the
CLK 10 signal from the PXI backplane. You can also choose to leave the

The voltage controlled crystal oscillator (VCXO) is a 64 MHz clock.
The trigger and clock routing area directs clock signals and triggers.
The TIO is the timing engine used for the NI 5620.
The MITE is the PXI bus interface. The MITE provides high-speed direct
memory access (DMA) transfers from the NI 5620 to the host computer’s
memory.
Other Features
This section contains information on other features on the NI 5620.
Multiple-Record Acquisitions
After the trigger has been received and the posttrigger samples have
been stored, you can configure the NI 5620 to begin another acquisition
that is stored in another memory record on the device. This process is a
multiple-record acquisition. To perform multiple-record acquisitions,
configure the NI 5620 to the number of records to be acquired before
starting the acquisition. The NI 5620 acquires an additional record each
time a trigger is accepted until all the requested records have been stored
in memory. After the initial setup, this process does not require software
intervention.
Between each record, there is a dead time during which the trigger is not
accepted. If the record length is greater than 80 µs, this dead time will be
500 ns. If, however, the record length is less than 80 µs, the dead time will
be 80 µs. During this time, the memory controller sets up for the next
record. There may also be additional dead time while the minimum number
of pretrigger samples are being acquired. Figure 2-4 shows a timing
diagram of a multiple-record acquisition.

Chapter 2
Hardware Overview
Synchronizing Multiple PXI Devices
The NI 5620 uses a PLL to synchronize the 64 MHz sample clock to a
10 MHz reference clock. You can either supply the reference clock through
the SMA connector (REF CLK IN) on the front panel or use the system
reference clock on the PXI backplane.
The PXI bus and the NI 5620 have the following timing and triggering
features that you can use for synchronizing multiple digitizers:
•
•
System Reference Clock—This is a 10 MHz clock on the PXI
backplane with 100 ppm accuracy. It is independently distributed to
each PXI peripheral slot through equal-length traces with a skew of
less than 1 ns between slots. Multiple devices can use this common
timebase for synchronization. This allows each NI 5620 to phase lock
to the system reference clock.
SMA connector (REF CLK IN)—This is a 10 MHz reference input
that you can use to connect your external frequency source for
synchronization.
