Digitizer、 SCAPP software option

Spectrum Instrumentation GmbH in Germany has added six new high-output voltage models to its next-generation 16-bit mid-range AWG (Arbitrary Waveform Generator) "M2p.65xx" series, which can be easily connected to a computer via a PCIe platform and can also operate in conjunction with digitizers, on November 26, 2019. With a sample rate of ~125MS/s, a frequency bandwidth of 70MHz, and output channel options of 1, 2, 4, or 8 channels (the high-output voltage version offers 1, 2, or 4 channels), significant miniaturization, speed enhancement, and cost reduction have been achieved compared to previous models. This AWG can be obtained at less than half the price of conventional standalone AWGs. It allows for easy operation in conjunction with digitizers. Synchronous operation of up to 16 cards (128 outputs; the high-output voltage version has 64 outputs) is possible.

Spectrum Instrumentation GmbH in Germany has added two new 8-channel products to its next-generation 16-bit mid-range AWG (Arbitrary Waveform Generator) "M2p.65xx" series, which can be easily connected to a computer via a PCIe platform and can also operate in conjunction with digitizers. With a sample rate of ~125MS/s, a frequency bandwidth of 60MHz, and output channel options of 1, 2, 4, or 8 channels, these new products achieve significant miniaturization, increased speed, and lower prices compared to previous models. You can purchase an AWG (Arbitrary Waveform Generator) at less than half the price of a typical standalone type AWG.

Spectrum Instrumentation GmbH released the next-generation 16-bit mid-range digitizer "M2p.59xx" series in March 2018, achieving a card size reduction of 1/2, a 50% increase in speed, and significant improvements in dynamic characteristics compared to conventional products. It offers 1 to 8 channels (single-ended), 1 to 4 channels (differential), sampling rates of 20 MS/s, 40 MS/s, 80 MS/s, and 125 MS/s, an input range of ±200 mV to ±10 V, a PCIe interface, 1 GB of data memory, and various trigger modes. In May 2018, they launched the standalone next-generation 16-bit mid-range digitizer NETBOX "DN2.59x" series, which can be easily connected to a computer via LAN. It features an LXI interface (GBit Ethernet), sample rates of 20 to 125 MS/s, 4, 8, and 16 channels, and true differential 4 and 8 channels, achieving a 50% increase in speed and significant improvements in dynamic characteristics compared to conventional products.

Spectrum Instrumentation GmbH, based in Germany, released a new SDK, the SCAPP software option – the Spectrum CUDA Access for Parallel Processing – on November 20, 2017. SCAPP is an SDK option that uses Nvidia's CUDA standard (CUDA is a parallel computing architecture that utilizes GPUs with 256 to 5,000 processing units provided by NVIDIA) to perform computational processing of data acquired by digitizers at supercomputer-level speeds. With CUDA, it is possible to execute data conversion, filtering, integration and averaging processes, baseline correction, window processing, and FFT at supercomputer-level speeds (up to 12 TFLOPS).
