## Overview

High-speed PCI Express x8 digitizer card featuring 5 GS/s sampling rate with 8-bit resolution on dual channels or 10 GS/s on single channel. Incorporates onboard FPGA for real-time signal processing and 2 GB acquisition memory with sustained streaming to host PC at 1.6 GB/s. Provides 50 Ohm SMA input connectors with 1 GHz analog bandwidth, programmable DC offset, and software-selectable input ranges. Supports external clock/trigger via SMA connectors with multiple trigger modes including edge, window, and hysteresis. Enables multi-card synchronization for increased channel count. Common applications include radar signal analysis, ultrasonic NDT, LIDAR systems, and time-domain spectroscopy.

## Function

Dual-channel high-speed digitizer card with up to 8 GS/s sampling rate, 12-bit vertical resolution, and 2 GHz analog bandwidth; offers real-time data processing capabilities with on-board FPGA; connects via PCIe interface; enables continuous streaming of digitized signals to GPU for intensive processing; supports external clock and trigger inputs for precise timing synchronization; used in applications such as radar signal intelligence, RF communications analyzation, and high-energy physics research.

## Platform

A high-speed, multi-channel waveform digitizer designed for host-based PCI Express (PCIe) or PCI bus architectures in industrial or laboratory PCs. It features precision analog-to-digital conversion, with signal input via BNC connectors, external trigger, and clock synchronization capabilities. Digital data streaming occurs directly to host memory via DMA, managed by device drivers and SDKs. Operates as a critical component in non-destructive testing, radar/lidar systems, high-energy physics instrumentation, and transient capture applications requiring rapid, high-resolution data acquisition.

## Application

High-speed waveform digitization for radar signal processing, electronic warfare testing, software-defined radio development, ultrafast laser pulse characterization, high-frequency communication system analysis, spectrum analyzer applications, oscilloscope replacement in automated test equipment, transient signal capture in power electronics, RF component testing, and real-time digital signal processing applications requiring gigahertz sampling rates with precise timing and triggering capabilities.

## Accessories

Requires PCIe mainframe or compatible chassis for operation. Interfaces include one 68-pin VHDCI connector for analog inputs with 50 ohm and 1 MOhm termination options. Additional connectors: 10 pin auxiliary connector for triggering and synchronization signals (TTL/CMOS levels), and a standard mini USB for firmware updates and control. Key accessories: 68-pin VHDCI cable for signal input, external reference clock input if synchronization with other equipment is needed.

## Interface

PCIe x8, analog signal input via four front panel SMA connectors for channels 1-4 supporting 50 Ohm impedance with 8-bit resolution and up to 5 GS/s sampling rate, external trigger input via SMA connector, external clock input via SMA connector, multiple card synchronization through LVDS interface connectors, digital I/O via 20-pin header connector (LVTTL compatible)
