AP200 / U1081A-003 Acqiris High Speed Signal Averaging Card

The Acqiris AP100 / AP200 / AP235 / AP240 Series of High Speed Signal Averaging Cards are designed to provide superior measurement precision and accuracy. Key acquisition specifications (such as DC accuracy, integral and differential non-linearity) have been optimized to deliver maximum measurement fidelity. Careful circuit layout, custom IC's and special packaging techniques have all been employed to reduce the overall random and correlated system noise. The use of custom IC's also dramatically reduces the total number of discrete components required. This has tremendous benefits on reliability and also allows the modules to use a minimal amount of power.

The AP series Averagers are PCI modules that plug directly into any vacant PCI slot in a PC. They are fully programmable over the PCI bus and can deliver 2 GS/s (AP240/AP200) and 1 GS/s (AP235/AP100) real time averaging performance. Signals on 2 channels with an Analog bandwidth limit at 1 GHz (AP240) or 0.5 GHz (AP235) can be analyzed simultaneously at sampling rates up to 1 GS/s and 0.5 GS/s, respectively. Alternatively, the AP100 and AP200 are single channel instruments with 0.5 GHz Analog bandwidth. Averaged Data can be transferred to a host processor over the PCI bus at speeds up to 100 Mbytes/s.
