Emona Communications Board –DxIQ-45G
PRODUCT APPLICATION:
To provide a cost effective top-board for NI ELVIS™ III,
covering the core topics in a university-level communications
systems (transmission theory) lab program.
IMPLEMENTATION:
•A single panel PCB, which plugs into the NI ELVIS III.
•Many experiments implemented on ONE panel, replacing 6 or
more experiment panels implemented by other “trainer”
manufacturers.
• Student patches together each experiment, using Emona’s well
established BLOCK DIAGRAM approach.
•DxIQ-45G will be supplied as a complete package, with all
required accessories.
•Comprehensive lab manual with detailed experiments.
•Integration with NI’s web-based ThinkScape experiment
delivery platform.
