Ultraview's PCIe boards acquire up to 500 Msamples/s
-- Test & Measurement World, 7/27/2009 9:00:00 AM
Ultraview launched two data-acquisition boards that allow uninterrupted full-speed acquisition into host memory or into the 8 Gbytes of onboard RAM. Both the 12-bit, 500-Msample/s board and the 14-bit, 400-Msample/s board come in single-channel and dual-channel PCIe versions for use in SIGINT, surveillance, missile testing, radar, and other defense, scientific, and medical applications.
When installed in any PCIe x16 or x8 slot, these ADC boards can continuously acquire wideband data, optionally process it in the onboard Virtex-5 FPGA, buffer it in onboard RAM, and continuously stream data to a host system RAM for immediate use, graphical display, or storage. A TTL selective-recording input allows acquisition to be dynamically stopped and started, increasing effective memory depth by storing only needed data.
The data-acquisition boards come with software, drivers, and example user source code for 64-bit Linux, as well as 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Vista/XP. Graphical waveform display software and routines to store data to disk are also included in C source and ready-to-run executable form. A host-uploadable firmware capability lets you reconfigure the FPGA through the host system's PCIe bus without a programming cable. This allows OEMs to modify the board's standard data-acquisition VHDL firmware to perform advanced application-specific hardware signal processing, such as filtering, sub-band tuning, spectroscopy, SDR, and image processing.
In quantities of 2 or more, a single-channel AD12-500x1-4GB is priced from $8995; the dual-channel version with 8 Gbytes of RAM (AD12-500x2-8GB) is priced at $10,795. In quantities of 2 or more, a single-channel AD14-400x1-4GB is priced from $9895, while the dual-channel AD14-400x2-8GB version is priced at $11,695.
