Strategic Test UF2e-4721, UF2e-4020 Data Acquisition Cards

Posted by Ken Cheung in Test Solution on Monday, March 3, 2008

Strategic Test Corp. recently introduced two new 250 kHz 16-bit data acquisition cards for PCI Express. The UF2e-4721 has 16 analog inputs and the UF2e-4020 has 8 channels. Unique features include the options for dual-timebase sampling, synchronous digital inputs, asynchronous digital I/O and the possibility to synchronize up to 4336 channels. Drivers and programming examples for Microsoft Windows Vista, XP64, XP and Linux (RedHat, Fedora, SuSe, Sarge) are supplied with the card, as well as the SBench 5.3 oscilloscope program. SDK's for MATLAB, LabVIEW, Agilent-VEE, DASYLab and LabWindows/CVI are available as options. Prices start at $4190 with volume/OEM discounts available.

Key Specifications

  • 32 mega samples memory — expandable to 2 giga samples
  • Continuous streaming to host PC > 120 mega samples/s
  • Effective Number of Bits > 14.7 bits
  • Signal-to-Noise Ratio > 90.6 dB
  • Total Harmonic Distortion < -105.0 dB
  • The standard -3dB bandwidth is > 125 kHz

Each channel its own 250 kHz ADC for true simultaneous sampling, together with eight voltage ranges from ±50 mV to ±10 V, a programmable offset of 100% and input impedances of 50 Ohm or 1 MOhm, allowing each channel to be individually configured for the signal source.

UF2e-472x Customization Options

  • Onboard memory: 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024 or 2048 mega samples
  • Multiple Recording: memory segmentation
  • Gated Sampling: output clock controlled by external TTL signal
  • TimeBase: records time of trigger events or Gates
  • ABA Mode: slow-fast-slow recording on trigger
  • Star Hub: synchronization of up to 5 or 16 boards, or 5 to 16 PCs to a maximum of 271 boards. Can be used with Digitizer, AWG and Digital I/O boards to create mixed-mode systems
  • Digital Inputs: adds 8 synchronous digital inputs
  • BaseXIO: adds 8 asynchronous digital I/O lines
