Digitizers with On-Board Processing

Developed around Acqiris' high-speed digitizers, and featuring an onboard FPGA Data Processing Unit (DPU), Acqiris' PCI and CompactPCI Analyzer modules offer synchronized multichannel acquisition at up to 1 GS/s, or up to 2 GS/s when interleaving.

CompactPCI Streamer Analyzer and Signal Analyzers
Acqiris’ Streamer Analyzer and Signal Analyzers are designed to cover requirements encountered in real-time applications requiring both high sample rate and high bandwidth. They feature real time signal processing and data bandwidth ideal for Radar, Electronic Warfare and ELINT.

Firmware included with the Streamer Analyzer platform allows data streaming of acquired data using the Serial FPDP protocol. This firmware allows acquisition and transfer of all acquired data with no dead-time and no loss of data at rates of up to 2 GS/s.

PCI Signal Analyzers, Averagers and Peak Analyzers
Acqiris’ Signal Analyzer platforms feature full front-end signal conditioning with up to 1 GHz bandwidth, dual-channel capability with synchronous acquisition. Specifically designed for ultrafast peak detection and analysis, time-to-digital conversion (TDC), signal averaging and sustained sequential recording (SSR) applications, the on-board FPGA digital processing unit (DPU) implemented as a FPGA, allows digitized signals to be processed and analyzed in real-time. With signal averaging (Avgr) and SSR firmware options, the DPU can be programmed to perform at the cards’ maximum sampling rate.

Acqiris’ Peak Analyzers combine the functions of both a high-speed digitizer and a peak detector. Peak detection is performed “on-the-fly” by an on-board processing system that uses FPGA’s to run advanced peak fitting algorithms directly on the digitized waveform data. The peak detector units can automatically compute peak maximum and minimum values together with the associated peak timing information from any acquired waveform.
