- Memory: 8 GB DDR4 SDRAM (expandable)
- Storage: 256 GB SSD
- Operating System: Windows 10 Pro (64-bit)
- Chassis Interface: PXIe (PCI Express)
- System Bandwidth: Up to 24 GB/s per slot
Key Features
- Single PXIe peripheral slot form factor
- Front-panel DisplayPort, USB 3.0, and Gigabit Ethernet connectivity
- Audio input/output ports for integrated applications
- Status LEDs and power button for chassis control
- Backplane power delivery with integrated chassis cooling
- Internal SATA support for expanded storage
Typical Applications Automated test systems, data acquisition platforms, real-time instrumentation control, and distributed measurement networks leveraging PXIe instrument ecosystems.
Compatibility & Integration The M9038A operates with standard PXIe chassis implementations and supports broad compatibility across PXIe instrument families. Software integration includes Keysight IO Libraries, PathWave, and third-party PXI-compliant drivers and applications.
Keysight / Agilent M9038A — Repair & Calibration Service
Aumictech offers NIST-traceable calibration and repair for the Keysight / Agilent M9038A. Calibration covers analog input channel accuracy and offset at all gain settings, analog output accuracy, digital I/O logic threshold verification, sample rate and timing accuracy, and trigger and synchronization bus functional verification. NI CompactRIO and PXI chassis also undergo backplane trigger line integrity check.. All calibrations ship with a NIST-traceable certificate. Turnaround is typically 1–3 business days after receipt.
Common Keysight / Agilent M9038A faults: power supply failure (cRIO-9073/9074), C-series slot connector wear, PXI chassis fan failure, GPIB interface failure on VXI controllers, BIOS/EEPROM corruption. NI CompactRIO most common faults are power supply failure on older cRIO-9073/9074 chassis and C-series module slot connector wear from repeated hot-swap cycles. PXI chassis fan failure is the most common wear item — chassis fans are field-replaceable. VXI embedded controllers most commonly develop EEPROM corruption and GPIB interface failure.
