PXI Testing

PXI testing is a type of testing method that uses a modular platform called the "PCI eXtensions for Instrumentation" or PXI, to perform automated test and measurement tasks. PXI is a compact, high-performance platform that combines the benefits of the PCI bus with the ruggedness and modularity of the VXI bus.

In PXI testing, test engineers can use a combination of hardware modules, such as signal generators, oscilloscopes, digital multimeters, and power supplies, to configure and automate the testing process. PXI modules can be easily swapped and reconfigured, making it a flexible and adaptable testing platform.

One of the key advantages of PXI testing is its speed and accuracy. The PXI platform can handle high-speed data acquisition and processing, enabling fast test times and real-time measurements. Additionally, the modularity of the PXI platform allows for a high degree of customization and scalability, making it ideal for testing applications across a wide range of industries, including aerospace, defense, telecommunications, and consumer electronics.

Another advantage of PXI testing is its compatibility with software tools such as LabVIEW, which is widely used for automating test and measurement tasks. LabVIEW provides a graphical programming environment that allows engineers to quickly create custom test sequences, analyze test data, and automate test reporting.
