Up to 2 Giga samples in single channel mode Applications Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) Ultrasonic & Eddy Current NDT/NDE Radar/RF Signal Recording Terabyte Storage Oscilloscope Up to four ATS9350 boards can be configured as a Leader/Follower system to create a simultaneous sampling system of up to 8 input channels. High-Resolution Oscilloscope Unlike other products on the market, ATS9350 does not use interleaved sampling. Each input has its own 12-bit, 500 MSPS ADC chip. Multi-Channel Transient Recording Lidar Spectroscopy Optional variable frequency external clock allows operation from 500 MHz down to 2 MHz, making ATS9350 an ideal waveform digitizer for OCT applications. Users can capture data from one trigger or a burst of triggers. Users can also stream very large datasets continuously to PC memory or hard disk. ATS9350 is supplied with AlazarDSO software that lets the user get started immediately without having to go through a software development process. Users who need to integrate the ATS9350 in their own program can purchase a software development kit, ATS-SDK, for C/C++, C#, Python, MATLAB, and LabVIEW for both Windows and Linux operating systems. All of this advanced functionality is packaged in a low-power, half-length PCI Express card.

500 MS/s 12-Bit PCI Express Digitizer PCI Express Bus Interface ATS9350 interfaces to the host computer using an 8-lane PCI Express bus. Each lane operates at 2.5 Gbps. PCIe bus specification v1.0a and v1.1 are supported. According to PCIe specification, an 8-lane board can be plugged into any 8-lane or 16-lane slot, but not into a 4-lane or 1-lane slot. As such, ATS9350 requires at least one free 8-lane or 16-lane slot on the motherboard. The physical and logical PCIe x8 interface is provided by an on-board FPGA, which also integrates acquisition control functions, memory management functions...

500 MS/s 12-Bit PCI Express Digitizer FPGA-Based FFT Processing It is possible to do real-time FFT signal processing using the on-board FPGA. Note that only one input can be processed. NPT AutoDMA is designed specifically for these applications. By only storing post-trigger data, the memory bandwidth is optimized and the entire onboard memory acts like a very deep FIFO. TRIGGER INPUT(S) CAPTURE Up to 2048-point FFT length is supported. A user programmable complex windowing function can be applied to the acquired data before FFT calculation. The complex FFT output is converted to magnitude in...

500 MS/s 12-Bit PCI Express Digitizer Continuous AutoDMA can easily acquire data to PC host memory at the maximum sustained transfer rate of the motherboard without causing an overflow. This is the recommended mode for very long signal recording. Triggered Streaming AutoDMA Triggered Streaming AutoDMA is virtually the same as Continuous mode, except the data transfer across the bus is held off until a trigger event has been detected. START CAPTURE TRIGGER It should be noted that SyncBoard-9350 does not use a PLL-based clock buffer, allowing the use of variable frequency clocks in Leader/Follower...

500 MS/s 12-Bit PCI Express Digitizer External Trigger Input The external trigger input on the ATS9350 is labeled TRIG IN on the face plate. By default, the input impedance of this input is 50 Ω and the full scale input range is ±3 Volts. The trigger signal is treated as an analog signal in this situation and a high-speed comparator receives the signal. Starting with hardware version 1.5, it is also possible to trigger the ATS9350 using a 3.3 V TTL signal. Input impedance is approximately 6.3 kΩ in this mode. ATS9350 timebase can be controlled either by onboard low-jitter VCO or by optional External...

500 MS/s 12-Bit PCI Express Digitizer acquire complete frames, or B-scans, in imaging applications. In fact, this is the most popular use of the AUX connector in OCT applications. Every ATS9350 digitizer is factory calibrated to NISTand CNRC-traceable standards. To recalibrate an ATS9350, the digitizer must be shipped back to the factory. On-Board Monitoring Adding to the reliability offered by ATS9350 are the on-board diagnostic circuits that constantly monitor over 20 different voltages, currents and temperatures. LED alarms are activated if any of the values surpass the limits. AlazarDSO Software...

500 MS/s 12-Bit PCI Express Digitizer Due to lack of demand and due to the fact that Microsoft no longer supports these operating systems, AlazarTech no longer supports Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2012, Windows Server 2008 R2, and Windows Server 2008. Linux Support AlazarTech offers Dynamic Kernel Module Support (DKMS) drivers for the following Linux distributions: Ubuntu, Debian, and RHEL®. AlazarTech DKMS drivers may work for other Linux distributions but they have not been tested and technical support may be limited. Users can download the DKMS driver for...
