  • 12 bit transient recorder
  • 4 synchronous channels with seperate A/D
  • Maximum sampling rate 10 MS/s on 4 channels

  • Simultanous sampling on all channels
  • Up to 64 MSample memory
  • input ranges between ±50 mV and ±10 V
  • FIFO mode up to 50 MS/s sum samplerate
  • Input offset up to ±100%
  • Automatic offset calibration
  • Synchronisation to multi-board system possible
  • 32 Bit PXI / CompactPCI 3U interface
  • Compatible with 3,3V and 5V PCI I/O-Voltage


MX.31xx Family

The MX.31xx series allows recording of two or four channels with sampling rates of 1 MS/s, 10 MS/s or 25 MS/s. Due to the proven design a wide variety of 12 bit A/D converter boards for PXI bus could be offered. These boards are available in several versions and different speed grades making it possible for the user to find an individual solution. As an option 4 digital inputs per channel could be recorded synchronously. The installed memory of up to 64 MSample will be used for fast data recording. It can completely be used by the currently active channels. If using slower sampling rates the memory is switched to a FIFO buffer and data will be transferred online to the PC memory or to hard disk.

PXI Bus

The PXI bus extension offers a lot of pre-defined lines on the backplane for clock and trigger synchronisation between different boards.

The Spectrum card supports these PXI features:

10 MHz Reference Clock: Could be used as base for samplerate generation
Star Trigger: supported as trigger source for the board
Trigger Bus: Direct card synchronisation with the integrated trigger bus

Software Support

Standard drivers for Windows and Linux as well as examples for C/C++, Delphi and Basic are included in the delivery [more...]
Firmware update in the Spectrum Control Center[more...]
SBench: Comfortable measurement software for windows [more...]
SPviewIT: comfortable and fast hard disk streaming software for Windows [mehr...]
Option LabVIEW drivers: Libraries and examples for LabVIEW[more...]
Option DASYLab driver: Direct access to cards with DASYLab [more...]
Option MATLAB driver: Universal driver for all cards [more...]
Option VEE driver: Libraries and examples for Agilent VEE [more...]
