Connecting to a Device Under Test

To connect a device under test (DUT) to the PXIe-6571, create a custom device interface board to access the signals of the DUT and use compatible cabling between the PXIe-6571 and the device interface board.

For more information, refer to the Interfacing to the Digital Pattern Instrument or Digital Waveform Instrument using the VHDCI Connector application note. Go to ni.com/info and enter the Info Code rdinwa to locate the application note.
Note If you plan to use the PXIe-6571 as part of an integrated system, such as a Semiconductor Test System (STS), refer to the system documentation for guidance on device interface board design and connection guidelines. For system documentation, visit ni.com/docs or contact your NI sales engineer.
To connect a custom device interface board to the VHDCI Digital Data and Control connector on the PXIe-6571, use a mating connector for the VHDCI cable from NI.
