Higher sampling rate and and value-add functionality make the PCIe-9814 an ideal solution for radar testing
ADLINK Technology, Inc. announces the release of its new high-speed PCI Express digitizer, the PCIe-9814, featuring four simultaneously sampled 80 MS/s input channels with 12-bit resolution, 40 MHz bandwidth, and up to 1 GB DDR3 onboard memory. The PCIe-9814 delivers compellingly accurate high dynamic performance in 76 dB SFDR, 64 dB SNR, and -75 dB THD, with up to 640 MB/s data streaming and value added functionality, enhanced price/performance, and maximum optimization for radar testing, power management monitoring, and non-destructive testing.
The PCIe-9814’s 80 MS/s sampling & 40 MHz signal bandwidth easily meet the requirements of medium frequency (0.1mHz to 30mHz) radar signal reception from IF radar receivers. The PCIe-9814 provides external digital trigger input for synchronous trigger radar signaling, and three extra synchronous digital inputs receive radar synch pulse signals or GPS IRIG-B code, supporting radar signal markers or synchronous time stamping, providing leading support for radar testing.
The PCIe-9814’s FPGA-based 31-order FIR digital filter supports noise reduction when signal content is 20 MHz or less. Noise effects are reduced efficiently and signal visibility increased by rejecting out-of-band and background noise and unexcepted high frequency signals, all with no extra programming demands. The FPGA-based FIR digital filter performs much faster than on the host, with no host CPU bandwidth occupied.
The PCIe-9814 supports Windows 8 and Windows 7 operating systems, and is fully compatible with third-party software such as LabVIEW™ and Visual Studio.NET®. In addition, ADLINK's measurement APIs allow easy conversion of basic voltage/time measurement results with no need for extra programming. System development is easier than ever before.
