Two Channel 200 MS/s 14-Bit PCI Express Digitizer from Adlink
ADLINK Technology, Inc. is releasing a new high-speed PCI Express digitizer, the PCIe-9852, featuring two simultaneously sampled 200MS/s input channels with 14-bit resolution, 90MHz bandwidth, and up to 1GB DDR3 onboard memory. Highly accurate measurement, up to 800MB/s data streaming, and onboard signal averaging technology, combine to make the PCIe-9852 suitable for long-term high-speed data recording applications such as distributed temperature sensing, radar signal testing, and atmospheric science research.
Catherine Wu, Product Director of ADLINK's Measurement and Automation Product Segment, states: "ADLINK's PCIe-9852 benefits Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) applications, by enabling significantly increased accuracy in temperature measurement. The PCIe-9852's two analog inputs simultaneously receive both Stokes and anti-Stokes lines generated in the application, and increased high-resolution sampling rates meeting requirements for sensing distances of 30km and more. In addition, onboard signal averaging technology isolates even minor detected data from crowded environments"
The PCIe-9852 provides 14-bit high resolution ADC and up to 200MS/s sampling, delivering 83dB SFDR, 62dB SNR and -81dB THD, giving high dynamic performance. The PCIe-9852 provides a flexible set of input ranges +/-0.2V, +/-2V, or +/-10V, software selectable 50© or 1M© input impedance, and a wide variety of triggering options and tight synchronisation capability, all maximising convenience of use.
Based on Gen 2 PCI Express technology, the PCIe-9852 streams data on both channels at maximum data rate (200MS/s), enabling continuous delivery to the host PC at rates up to 800MB/s, and a complementary 8 × 500GB driver RAID system (4 TB) further extends capture sessions beyond 1h. The PCIe-9852 combines high bandwidth, dual channel simultaneous data streaming, and built-in memory up to 1GB for data storage, making it suitable for real-time high-speed data recording.
The PCIe-9852 is equipped with onboard Signal Averaging Technology, allowing detection of small repetitive signals in noisy environments, with no CPU loading, suitable for applications requiring extraction of small signals from background noise as occurs in distributed temperature sensing.
ADLINK PCIe-9852 supports multiple operating systems including Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows XP, and Linux, and is fully compatible with third-party software such as LabVIEW and MATLAB . Users can simply complete the programming through ADLINK DAQPilot software development kit.
