The Model 6826 single- or dual-channel data acquisition (DAQ) board delivers a sampling rate of 2 GHz with a 10-bit resolution via one or two Atmel AT84AS008 a/d converters. Processing support for the converters comes by way of a Xilinx XC2VP100

The Model 6826 single- or dual-channel data acquisition (DAQ) board delivers a sampling rate of 2 GHz with a 10-bit resolution via one or two Atmel AT84AS008 a/d converters. Processing support for the converters comes by way of a Xilinx XC2VP100 Virtex-II Pro FPGA with more than 11 million gates. The board also includes dual 64-bit high-speed DDR SDRAMs that support a total of 512 MB or 1 GB of memory and 16 MB of flash memory, which provides boot code storage for two IBM 405 PowerPC microcontroller cores within the FPGA. Other features include several high-speed I/O channels, two or four FPDP-II data ports operating at speeds up to 400 MB/s, two serial switched-fabric VXS interfaces running full-duplex at 1.25 GB/s, and LVDS I/O on either the front or rear panel. Pricing for a single-channel version starts at $15,695. For more details, call Mario Schiavone at PENTEK INC., Upper Saddle River, NJ. (201) 818-5900, ext. 756.
