PulseBlasterESR: High Speed
Programmable Pulse Generator and Digital Word
Generator
PulseBlasterESRTM series is
a high-speed, programmable, multichannel pulse
generator in the PCI or CompactPCI form
factor. Based on the versatile
PulseBlasterTM processor
architecture, these boards can accommodate
pulse programs with highly flexible control
commands of up to 4k program words, featuring
loops (nested 8 levels deep), large loop
counter (20 bits, up to 1,048,576
repetitions), and deterministic WAIT opcode
with a constant latency of 8 clock cycles
(40.0 ns at 200 MHz), adjustable to 1.07
seconds in duration, and up to 10 MHz
retriggering frequency.
PulseBlasterESRTM offers up
to 24 independently controlled channels,
variable output rates, and powerful
program-flow features. Currently
available clock frequencies are up to 200 MHz.
Key Specifications
- Up to 200 MHz clock frequency
- Standard clock stability of 100 ppm, with
optional oven-controlled clock oscillator
(OCXO) of 200 ppb
- 24 independently controlled output
channels
- 4 BNC bracket mounted connectors
- Three IDC headers for all 24 signal
outputs
- 50 ohm impedance matched outputs
- Programmable pulse lengths from 5 ns to 10
s per instruction
- Sub-1 ns rise/fall times
- Advanced pulse-program flow control:
nested loops (8 levels), subroutines
- Software and hardware triggering, up to 10
MHz retriggering frequency
- PCI or Compact-PCI form factor
