视觉论坛的各种资源，除了视觉相关的模块有使用外，大部分的都不会使用，所以仅提供资源不能提供技术支持。资源的下载地址一般会同时提供NI官方地址和百度网盘的下载地址。某些工具包NI的地址失效或没有NI的下载地址，那视觉论坛也没有办法，只能尝试使用百度网盘地址下载；如果百度网盘的下载地址失效过期，可联系论坛客服更新。现在NI的下载服务器对我国IP地址不是很友好，有些时候速度很慢或大的资源下载很容易出错，这样会造成安装过程各种类型报错而无法安装。建议在下载完成后，对下载资源做校验和验证（NI一般会提供MD5或SHA256等），与官方或视觉论坛提供的校验和对比，一致就可以安装，如果不一致，则需要重新下载。视觉论坛早期下载的资源，那时候NI没有这么多限制，基本上都是正常下载的资源；后期下载的资源，都与NI的正确校验和对比过，保证是正确的资源才上传到百度网盘，所以百度网盘的资源基本上是正确的。校验和工具下载地址：

RFIC测试软件
RFIC测试软件简化了宽带RF IC的特性分析。
RFIC测试软件是一款应用软件，可帮助您分析功率放大器(PA)和前端模块(FEM)等RFIC的特性。如果要对PA进行线性化，有多种针对特定应用的数字预失真(DPD)算法可供选择，例如查找表(LUT)、记忆多项式(MP)和广义记忆多项式(GMP)。此外，您还可以集成并运行NI联盟伙伴的线性化算法或技术。当使用像PXI矢量信号收发仪这样的NI仪器时，您还可以使用该软件来分析包络跟踪(ET)等功率效率优化技术。您可以使用GUI来保存手动配置和执行，以便重复使用这些配置和执行或与其他测试平台共享。National Instruments Alliance Partner（NI联盟伙伴）是独立于NI的商业实体，与NI之间不存在代理、合伙或合资关系。
