PXIe-5840 vector signal transceiver (VST) combines a 6.5GHz RF vector signal generator, 6.5GHz vector signal analyzer, user-programmable FPGA and high-speed serial and parallel digital interfaces into a single two-slot PXI Express module. Has 1GHz of bandwidth, suited for a range of applications including 802.11ac/ax device testing, mobile/Internet of Things device testing, 5G design and testing, RFIC testing, radar prototyping and more. Measures 802.11ax error vector magnitude (EVM) performance of -50dB. Measurement speeds up to 10X faster than traditional instrumentation using FPGA-based measurement acceleration and highly optimized measurement software. Small size and tight synchronization. Single 18-slot chassis.
