Overview

Product overview

Key product information and technical features.

The PXI-5404 provides clock and sine signal generation within the NI PXI instrumentation platform. Its DDS architecture supports precise waveform generation, while the NI-FGEN feature table identifies its standard-function outputs as sine and square.

NI lists the PXI-5404 among sources capable of phase-locking to the PXI backplane CLK10 signal. For system integration, verify the module's exact part number and driver requirements rather than treating all PXI-5404 variants as mechanically interchangeable.

Direct digital synthesis for sine and clock signal generation.
Sine and square outputs are both produced in standard-function operation.
12-bit output resolution.
Supports phase-locking to the PXI CLK10 backplane reference.

FAQ

Product-specific questions

Product-specific answers based on available technical information.

What signals does the PXI-5404 generate?

NI-FGEN documents sine and square standard-function outputs and states that both are produced.

Does the PXI-5404 support frequency lists?

No. NI explicitly identifies the NI 5404 as a device that does not support frequency lists.

Is 778577-01 a documented PXI-5404 part number?

Yes. NI's historical product list identifies 778577-01 as a PXI-5404 12-bit, 100 MHz frequency source. The current model page lists 778577-02, so confirm the physical module's label when selecting hardware.
