Digital pattern generators have flexible
outputs
PC-compatible digital pattern generator boards feature up to 32Gbit memory, maximum clock rates of 40, 10 or 5MHz, and a choice of 16 or 32bit widths.
Strategic Test has released four new PC-compatible digital pattern generator boards with up to 32Gbit memory, maximum clock rates of 40, 10 or 5MHz, and a choice of 16 or 32bit widths Uniquely, each 4bit (nibble) can be programmed with a different high and low output level from - 2 to +10 V in 10 mV increments

The Zeon StrongARM computer board is optimised for embedded industrial and automotive applications.
Ultra-fast sampling board runs up to 125Mbit/s
The UF.7021 is a full-length PCI board with 64 digital input or output channels that can simultaneously capture and replay signals at a maximum sample rate of 125Mbit/s.
This output range can generate signals compatible with ECL, PECL, TTL, LVDS, LVTTL, CMOS and LVCMOS.
Compared with traditional instruments, the UF2-7200 series is less expensive, easier to use and eliminates the need for multiple instruments to produce different signal levels.
The signal data can be generated from card memory, continuously looping until stopped by the user or streamed continuously from the host PC at rates to 225Mbyte/s when very long signals are required.
The output rate of the signals can be programmed from DC to 40MHz.
Each channel can drive a maximum current of 100mA (maximum 200mA per nibble).
Differential signals such as ECL and LVDS are generated in the onboard hardware.
This has the advantage that only one databit is used for each pair of differential signals so that less onboard memory is used.
Software drivers for Windows Vista, XP64, XP, 2000, NT, Me, 98 and Linux are supplied, and drivers for Matlab, LabView, VEE and DasyLab are available as options.
The prices are as follows: the UF2-7210, 10MHz on 16bit, 512Mbit memory, US $3490; the UF2-7211, 10MHz on 16bit or 5MHz on 32bit, 512Mbit memory, $4290; the UF2-7220, 40MHz on 16bit, 51 Mbit memory, $4390; and the UF2-7221, 40MHz on 32bit, 512Mbit memory, $5590.
All UltraFast cards are supplied with free drivers for Windows and Linux, the SBench measurement and signal generation program, source code programming examples in Visual Basic, C/C++ and Delphi; two years hardware warranty and lifetime software updates including future Windows and Linux drivers.
Technical support is provided at no cost for the product lifetime.
