Programmable pulse lengths from five clock periods (50 ns at 100 MHz), to 7 days per instruction. Pulses as short as 2.5 ns are available (BlasterESR-PRO model at 400 MHz). 10 ns pulse resolution (at 100 MHz) 512 or 32k pulse program instruction words Advanced pulse-program flow control: nested loops (16 levels), branches, and subroutines 20-bit loop counter (over 1 million events/repetitions) Software and hardware triggering, up to 5 MHz retriggering frequency PCI or Compact-PCI form factor. Description: PulseBlaster® is a general-purpose intelligent multichannel programmable TTL pulse / pattern generator system and an advanced timing. Its versatility and performance are of particular value in NMR, MRI, NQR, ICR, Solids, Mass Spectrometry, Ultrasound, and related resonance and test applications. The entire logic design is contained in a single silicon chip, qualifying it as a system-on-a-chip (SOC) design – the industry’s first and only design of this kind. Implemented in state-of-the-art programmable silicon, its innovative design has many unique and attractive features, such as small size, high speed, increased functionality, and low cost. Applications: Complex, high-speed, multi-channel pulse, pattern, and word generation. Customers’ applications have included Order Informations: PulseBlaster systems can be delivered with selected clock frequencies, number of output bits/channels, and program memory space. Clock frequencies: 50, 80, 100, or 125 MHz Number of output bits/channels: 12, 16, or 24 Program memory space: 512 or 32k 80-bit words Order Number Key: Experiment and process control in Electron, Nuclear and Quadrupolar Resonances (ESR, NMR, NQR) Mass Spectrometry and related test technologies Ultrasound, radar, medical imaging Laser control in advanced communication Solid state physics experiments Nanomagnetism and spintronics applications Robotics and process synchronization Data bus emulation General laboratory use PulseBlaser: Numbers of Channels (16): Frequency (100 MHz): Memory (32k): Copyright© 2009 WUNTRONIC GmbH.

Block Diagram The Figure presents the general architecture of the PulseBlaster system. The major building blocks are the SRAM memory (both internal and external to the processor), the microcontroller (uPC), the integrated bus controller (IBC), the counter, and the output buffers. The entire logic design, excluding output buffers, is contained on a single silicon chip, making it a System-on-a-Chip design. User control to the system is provided through the integrated bus controlled over the PCI bus. Output signals... Its 24 output bits/channels are capable of delivering 25 mA per pin. If more output...
