◇ Integrates excitation and acquisition components onto a single PCI card.
◇ Directly captures and digitally demodulates IF/RF signals using quadrature detection. The desired baseband bandwidth is user definable through software.
◇ Generates completely formed RF excitation pulses as well as high resolution digital control signals.
◇ Supports 2 analog I/O channels and 4 digital output channels.
◇ Select models have Arbitrary Waveform Generation (AWG or 'shaped pulse') capability.
◇ Maintains signal coherence between excitation and acquisition systems at all frequencies.
◇ Autonomously signal-averages the baseband data between multiple acquisitions.
◇ Samples the input signal at up to 75 Ms/s with 14-bit resolution.
◇ Captures input signals above the Nyquist frequency, up to approximately 100 MHz.
◇ With signal detection enabled, provides up to 10 MHz bandwidth of baseband data.
◇ Direct Digital Synthesis generates RF output pulses with 14-bit resolution up to 300 Ms/s clock frequency.
◇ Standard clock stability of 100 ppm, with optional oven-controlled clock oscillator (OCXO) of 200 ppb.
◇ Pulse setting resolution up to 13.3 ns, pulses from 66.6 ns to days per interval.
◇ Zero-latency phase and frequency switching.
◇ Wide-bandwidth input amplifier and A/D converter allow for undersampling applications.
