What Is the PXI Source Measure Unit Bundle?

Engineers use the PXI Source Measure Unit (SMU) Bundle to automate high-quality DC measurements and tests. Each bundle includes a PXI Express SMU in a 5-slot PXI chassis that is controlled through a laptop Thunderbolt™ USB-C port, leaving four empty slots for future upgrades.

Why Choose the PXI SMU Bundle

The PXI SMU Bundle offers a straightforward way to get started with PXI. With a software-defined SMU and four slots that can synchronize different instruments, this bundle is ideal for building high-performance, mixed-measurement systems.

Best for:

  • Parametric Test
  • Material Research
  • Chip/IC validation
  • Board-level power characterization
  • Battery simulation

Recommended Software for the PXI Source Measure Unit Bundle

LabVIEW+ Suite

 

The LabVIEW+ Suite is a collection of LabVIEW, TestStand, DIAdem, FlexLogger™, and more NI software. Get a suite of tools for automating measurements, developing test sequences, and analyzing data.

FlexLogger™ Software

 

FlexLogger is data acquisition software designed for NI hardware. It provides an intuitive and interactive environment for configuring measurements and monitoring data, so you spend less time developing.

Add More Instruments to Your Bundle

4 different PXI instrument modules

Use the remaining four slots to add more SMUs or other instruments to the same PXI system. Synchronize multiple instruments in the chassis by using hardware-timed triggers over the PXI backplane.
