NI is announcing a new, high-performance model of VirtualBench. The software-based VirtualBench all-in-one instrument combines a mixed-signal oscilloscope, function generator, digital multimeter, programmable DC power supply and digital I/O. With 350MHz of bandwidth, four analogue channels and Ethernet connectivity, the new version of VirtualBench offers increased functionality for engineers characterising and debugging new designs or automated test systems.
Stefanie Breyer, Vice President of R&D, Data Acquisition at NI, says: "Since we introduced VirtualBench to the marketplace, its versatility and practicality have created considerable efficiencies for users. With this next iteration, we incorporated greater performance and more features that open up even more possibilities for engineers interacting with benchtop test equipment."
Users still interact with VirtualBench through free upgradable software applications that run on PCs or iPads for an easy, unified software experience for all five instruments. Because VirtualBench uses today's consumer computing platforms, engineers and scientists interact with their instruments using multitouch displays, multicore processors, wireless connectivity and intuitive interfaces for increased productivity. Simplification and increased capability through software leads to more efficient circuit debugging and validation.
