The Keysight M9032A PXIe System Synchronization Module is a single-slot, 3U PXIe module engineered to deliver high-performance synchronization and triggering across multiple PXIe modules and chassis. Built around a high-quality Oven Controlled Crystal Oscillator (OCXO) reference clock and compliant with the PXI Express Hardware Specification, this module ensures precise timing and repeatable measurements in complex test setups. The onboard Virtex UltraScale+ VU3P FPGA enables advanced customization through PathWave software.
