PCIe Digitizers support triggered acquisitions.

Press Release Summary:



With TSR firmware option, 8-bit U5309A and 12-bit U5303A PCIe Digitizers offer simultaneous capture and transfer of acquired data in triggered applications. Firmware enables digitizers to sustain triggered acquisitions of thousands of samples at hundreds of kHz rates without missing any events. Users can now view memory as multi-bank circular memory, and can optimize data throughput for application by configuring number of memory banks.

Keysight Technologies Introduces Triggered Simultaneous Acquisition and Readout Capability for PCIe Digitizers



New Option Offers Optimum Solution for Triggered Acquisitions at Fast Rate without Missing any Events



SANTA ROSA, Calif. -- Keysight Technologies, Inc. today announced the availability of new signal processing firmware for its family of U53xxA PCIe digitizers. The new firmware (option -TSR) allows simultaneous capture and transfer of acquired data in triggered applications.



According to Keysight's validation measures, the digitizer's architecture, with the new firmware, is able to sustain triggered acquisitions of thousands of samples at hundreds of kHz rates without missing any events. Moreover, with the new firmware, it is possible to acquire and read substantially higher trigger rates during a shorter period of time (or non-periodic triggers) depending on the internal memory options selected. Users now can view the memory as a multi-bank circular memory, and can optimize the data throughput for their application by configuring the number of memory banks.



"The -TSR option offers an optimum solution for triggered applications that require a large volume of data transfer while making sure none of these triggers are missed," said Jean-Luc Lehmann, product manager for Keysight PCIe high-speed digitizers. "This new function enlarges the coverage of OEM needs once more. Other specific functionalities, such as real-time peak detection and average, are already available."



U.S. Pricing and Availability

The triggered simultaneous acquisition and readout option (-TSR) is available now on the 8-bit U5309A and 12-bit U5303A PCIe high-speed digitizers. Please contact digitizers@keysight.com for more information.

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.
