Streaming to a host PC is supported to the maximum transfer rate of the PCI Express x1 bus. http://www.strategic-test.com/news

SDK's for Microsoft Windows Vista, XP64, XP and Linux (RedHat, Fedora, SuSe, Sarge) and the SBench 5.3 oscilloscope program are supplied with the card. SDK's for LabVIEW, MATLAB; Agilent-VEE, DASYLab and LabWindows/CVI are available as options.

Key specifications include:
Effective Number of Bits = 10.1 bits
Signal-to-Noise Ratio > 62.5 dB
Total Harmonic Distortion < -61.0 dB and -3dB bandwidth > 12.5 MHz

Each channel has a software-programmable amplifier allowing input ranges of ±50 mV to ±10 V. The UF2e-3132 offers a wide range of triggering possibilities, including level, window, pulse-width, re-arm and double triggers, or an external TTL trigger input. Trigger conditions can be set on multiple cards or systems combined with AND/OR logic, a feature often used in production test.

Like all UltraFast boards, the UF2e-3132 scope card can be customized with hardware options:

• Onboard memory: 32, 64, 128, 256, 512, 1024 or 2048 MegaSamples
• 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 PC's to a maximum or 271 boards. Can be used with Scope, AWG and Digital I/O boards to create mixed mode systems

BaseXIO: adds 8 asynchronous digital I/O lines

Prices start at $10,390 with discounts for volume, OEM's and system integrators. All products are supplied with two-year hardware warranty and lifetime technical support and software updates, including future OS drivers.
