Digitizers gain high-impedance mezzanine
The U1061A (8-bit) and U1062A (10-bit ) Acqiris high-speed PXI digitizers from Agilent Technologies feature an optional high-impedance mezzanine that enables them to be combined with a signal probe for applications such as telecommunications and semiconductor component testing.
The U1062A is a 4-Gsamples/s, 3U PXI digitizer with input bandwidths of up to 2 GHz and acquisition memories of up to 256 Msamples/channel. The dual-channel U1061A, with up to 1-GHz of instantaneous bandwidth, provides synchronous sampling on both input channels of 1 Gsamples/s with up to 8 Msamples of acquisition memory. In single-channel applications, both digitizers permit channel interleaving, providing 2 Gsamples/s and 16-Msample memory (U1061A) and 4 Gsamples/s and 512-Msamples memory (U1062A). www.agilent.com.

KineticSystems releases ADC module
The CP246 CompactPCI/PXI Bridge signal-conditioning module from KineticSystems incorporates eight signal-conditioning channels, eight independent 16-bit ADCs, and 16 multifunction digital I/O channels. By combining all of these functions in a single module, the CP246 eliminates the need for complex field wiring. The company claims that this reduces system noise while increasing the accuracy of the data measured.
KineticSystems reports that typical applications for the single-width module include rocket motor testing, wind tunnel testing, vibration and torque measurements, RTD temperature measurements, and general-purpose digital control or monitoring. Base price: $400 per channel. www.kscorp.com.
