PXI-based 16-Channel Dynamic DAC reduces test development time.
Share:
Press Release Summary:
Capable of supplying typical waveforms of up to +30 V, M9188A single-slot, unipolar DAC eliminates need for engineers to design and develop signal conditioning circuits for applications requiring up to +30 V. DAC provides variable current source, such as DC, and pulse waveforms of up to +20 mA, eliminating need for additional current transformer or source measure unit. With 1 MB available memory per channel, DAC can behave as basic arbitrary waveform generator.

Keysight Technologies Launches Powerful Dynamic D/A Converter
New Converter Reduces Test Development Time
SANTA ROSA, Calif. – Keysight Technologies, Inc. today announced the M9188A, a PXI-based, 16-channels, single-slot unipolar dynamic digital/analog converter (DAC). The M9188A is capable of supplying typical waveforms of up to +30 V. This eliminates the need for engineers to design and develop signal conditioning circuits for applications requiring up to +30 V and thus reduces test system application development and setup time.
The M9188A provides a variable current source, such as DC, and pulse waveforms of up to +20 mA. This eliminates the need for an additional current transformer or source measure unit for application tests requiring current source signals. This helps users achieve a lower cost of test resulting in lower capital expenditure requirements.
The M9188A has an output disconnect switch at every channel. This helps prevent potential damage to the device under test (DUT) from external signal power sources and helps user achieve greater uptime.
With 1 MB available memory per channel, the M9188A can behave like a basic arbitrary waveform generator (ARB) by simulating waveforms with a sampling period from 2 µs to 512 µs at up to 500 kSa/s update rate.
The M9188A is ideal for:
mechatronics test;
automotive electronics test (i.e., speed sensors); and
functional test systems requiring isolated biasing channels.
U.S. Pricing and Additional Information
The M9188A is available today with prices starting at $3,600. More information is available at www.keysight.com/find/m9188a or contact Keysight Technologies. Images of the M9188A are available at www.keysight.com/find/m9188a_images.
About Keysight Technologies
On Sept. 19, 2013, Agilent Technologies announced plans to separate into two publicly traded companies through a tax-free spinoff of its electronic measurement business. The new company, Keysight Technologies, began operating as a wholly owned subsidiary of Agilent on Aug. 1, 2014 with a full separation anticipated in early November 2014. Keysight is expected to trade on the NYSE under the symbol KEYS.
