PulseBlaster-PCIeTM
is a general-purpose, multichannel, programmable TTL pulse generator / digital word generator. It offers up to 24 individually controlled channels, powerful program-flow features, and variable output rates ranging from ns to days per interval. Controlled via PCIe.
PulseBlaster-PCIeTM
implements a novel 80-bit Very-Long Instruction Word (VLIW) architecture. Due to its versatility and intelligence, it is most commonly used as a powerful timing engine for applications requiring sophisticated pulse sequences and output patterns, precision timing of wide-ranging intervals, and complex system control.
The standard form factor is PCI-e, and the standard clock frequency is 100 MHz. Higher clock rates are available, currently up to 500 MHz (the PBESR-PRO series of boards).
Key Specifications
- Standard clock frequency of 100 MHz
- High-speed models available, currently up to 500 MHz clock frequency (PBESR-PRO series of boards)
- Standard clock stability of 100 ppm, with optional oven-controlled clock oscillator (OCXO) of 200 ppb
- Up to 24 individually controlled output channels
- Up to 25 mA output current per channel (varies by firmware, please consult manual)
- DB-25 bracket mounted connector
- IDC headers for on-board access to signals
- Programmable pulse lengths from six clock periods (60 ns at 100 MHz) to 7 days per instruction. Pulses as short as 2.0 ns are available (PulseBlasterESR-PRO model at 500 MHz)
- 10 ns pulse resolution (at 100 MHz)
- 4k pulse program instruction word memory depths available
- Advanced pulse-program flow control: nested loops (8 levels), branches, and subroutines
- 20-bit loop counter (over 1 million events/repetitions)
- Software and hardware triggering, up to 5 MHz retriggering frequency
- PCIe form factor
