Pod houses waveform generator and logic
analyser
The GP-22050-Base is a PC-controlled USB 2.0 pod with arbitrary digital waveform generator and logic analyser capabilities.
The GP-22050-Base is a PC-controlled USB 2.0 pod with ADWG (arbitrary digital waveform generator) and logic analyser capabilities It enables the stimulation and analysis of digital interfaces, streaming data to/from a PC to 16 data lines at up to 100Mbyte/s burst rate, with six additional control lines for repetitive sequence generation, in/out clocking or trigger definition

Electronic engineers now have an easy-to-use tool to access electronic systems from their favourite workstation.
The GP-22050-Base allows users to access virtually any port that fits in 16 address/data lines and six control lines up to 50MHz, reaching a maximum of 100Mbyte/s burst performance over the 16Kbyte internal memory depth.
During operation, a built-in hardware accelerator reduces the control flow to a minimum to reserve the bandwidth for data transfer.
Maximum continuous throughput of 48Mbyte/s is achievable, but actual continuous flow through is held below the PC's maximum continuous throughput (around 11Mbyte/s) - and the file size can be as large as the hard drive.
The GP-22050-Base offers a significant productivity gain for system-onboard development.
Deliverable with many hardware options and host software extension packages, the GP-22050-Base is the ideal lab companion to access digital boards.
The GP-22050-Base is used to complement existing in-lab debug, validation and analysis environments and to enhance electronic system development productivity.
8 Pi Control Panel software provided allows users to define I/O clocks, repetitive sequences, and trigger patterns; and to automate tasks or build custom applications, you can use the TCL scripting environment, or C, C++ DLLs.
It can also set repetitive and cumbersome lab tasks such as controlling a DAC (digital-to-analogue convertor), sending a stimulus to a custom IP block in an FPGA, or to create an arbitrary stimulus and collect results.
Made in Europe by Byte Paradigm, the GP-22050-Base is available from stock at $1187.00 each from Saelig.
