U5310A 10-bit ADC Card
5 GS/s to 10 GS/s, with real-time processing

50% Introductory offer dedicated to Research and Academic Institutions, currently available on the U5310A!
The U5310A is a 10-bit, PCIe signal acquisition card capturing waveforms on 2 channels at 5 GS/s or on a single channel at 10 GS/s, with a large bandwidth from DC to 2.5 GHz.
Featuring unique spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) and signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) performances in high frequencies, especially at 250 mV full scale range (FSR), the U5310A ADC card is suited for embedded OEM applications requiring signal acquisition at wide bandwidth and high dynamic range. At the heart of the ADC card is a data processing unit (DPU) based on the Xilinx FPGA enabling real-time signal processing. The U5310A includes a digitizer firmware (-DGT) with up to 5 GS/s per channel. Moreover, additional firmware options are available:
- The interleaved option (-INT) that enables up to 10 GS/s on one channel, doubling the sampling rate while maintaining the same signal integrity high performances
- The average option (-AVG) that allows accumulation of waveforms from 1 to 16k triggers on dual synchronous channels at up to 5 GS/s, or on single channel at 10 GS/s. An innovative programmable trigger output can be used to optimize the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and increase the ability to isolate very small peaks from the signal noise
- The continuous simultaneous acquisition and readout with triggers (-CST) option that supports multiple triggered record acquisitions and simultaneous output data streaming.
