PC - Instrumentation

Since 1989, Spectrum has led the way in the manufacture of high-speed and high-resolution PC instruments for PCI, PCI-X, PCI Express, PXI and CompactPCI (CPCI) busses. Years of experience as a developer and producer are feed in the products forming robust instruments for industrial needs.

Spectrum has focused its business on the high-speed A/D, D/A and Digital I/O range with sampling rates between 100 kS/s, 1 MS/s, 10 MS/s, 50 MS/s, 100 MS/s, 200 MS/s and 500 MS/s. Fast amplifiers and high-quality converters allow the acquisition and replay of high-frequency signals. As a result of the substantial on-board memory even fast signals may be recorded for long time with a high precision.

The boards are also available in a completely installed system. We offer a wide range of standard systems, 19" industrial systems or mobile PCs. For the mobile use together with a notebook, a range of high-performance docking stations that can hold up to three PCI boards is also available.

14 bit Digitzer optimized for RADAR applications
Acquisition of digital position data together with analog data is a feature often requested in real world applications, especially when doing RADAR data acquisition. Spectrum now announces four new products, M2i.4028 (20 MS/s) and M2i.4038 (50 MS/s), each available as PCI/PCI-X version as well as PCI Express version offering a special solution for this demand. All cards consist of one 14 bit analo... [ more... ]
