M4x.445x - High performance digitizer 14-bit, 2 or 4 channels 500 MS/s, PXI Express

The M4x.44xx-x4 series digitizers deliver the highest performance in both speed and resolution. The series includes PCIe cards with either two or four synchronous channels where each channel has its own dedicated ADC. The ADC’s can sample at rates from 130 MS/s up to 500 MS/s and are available with either 14 bit or 16 bit resolution. The combination of high sampling rate and resolution makes these digitizers the top-of-the-range for applications that require high quality signal acquisition.

The PXIe digitizers feature a interface with PCI Express x4 Gen 2 interface that offers outstanding data streaming performance. The interface and Spectrum’s optimized drivers enable data transfer rates in excess of 1.7 GB/s so that signals can be acquired, stored and analyzed at the fastest speeds. While the cards have been designed using the latest technology they are still software compatible with the drivers from earlier Spectrum digitizers. So, existing customers can use the same software they developed for a 10 year old 200 kS/s multi-channel card and for an M4x series 500 MS/s high resolution digitizer!
