A/D Acquisition system

The latest generation high-speed A/D acquisition system capable of digitizing an analog signal at rates from 300-2500 MSPS in 12-bit samples. The acquisition system is Linux-based and includes a full X-Midas based software suite. The latest in NVMe storage technology enables continuous collection at one of five selectable bandwidths 50/100/200/500/1000 MHz from an analog prefilter frontend. Record offload capabilities allow for post-collection archiving to 80/160TB RAID-50 external array subsystems.
