Digitisers avoid noise induction
Spectrum's M2i.30xx is available in 17 different versions with one to four channels and sampling rates of between 40 and 200Msample/s.
Most high-speed digitisers on the market have GND-related single-ended inputs, but for some applications noise induction can be a problem In these applications the connection of differential signals is a must

High bandwidth for 14bit acquisition boards
The new MI.40xx series of data acquisition boards from Spectrum are an ideal solution for measurement tasks that demand both high speed and high resolution.
Pattern generators suit R and D and ATE
The 72xx card family is billed as a unique system solution for universal pattern generation.
Spectrum's M2i.30xx is available in 17 different versions with one to four channels and sampling rates of between 40 and 200Msample/s.
Most of the two- and four-channel versions are available with the new difference input option.
Activated by a simple software command the card hardware can combine two single-ended channels into one difference channel.
The M2i.3024 can either operate in single-ended mode with two channels and 105Msample/s or four channels and 50Msample/s.
When activating the difference option the same card can operate two channels with 105Msample/s in differential mode.
The difference calculation is done in real-time on the digitised data using the selected sampling rate forming 13bit wide samples.
All cards have a completely synchronous design.
Data is acquired into the up to 2Gsample onboard memory.
This memory can also be used as a FIFO buffer, allowing it to continuously transfer data to the PC.
All cards in the M2i series may be synchronised using the internal sync-bus.
This allows them to generate massive parallel acquisition systems with more than 1000 channels as well as mixed-mode systems with A/D, D/A and digital I/O cards.
The card is delivered with drivers for Windows 2000, XP, Vista as well as Linux kernel 2.4 and 2.6. Request a free brochure from Spectrum Systementwicklung Microelectronic ...
