Keysight M5200A PXIe Digitizer
The Keysight M5200A PXIe digitizer is a single-slot module that delivers 4 channels @ 2 GHz bandwidth, 4.8 GSa/sec sample rate & 12 bits resolution. Real-time sequencing hardware, which controls how many and what types of customized acquisition routines are run on the instrument at one time. Each channel has 1 GSa of memory available to store longer-duration waveforms yet does not impede sample collection. The M5200A can be used to analyze wide-bandwidth RF signals due to its 900 mV p-p input range, DC coupling, and 8-bit effective resolution. It connects via an x8 Gen 3 PCI Express link to the host system and includes a Virtex UltraScale+ Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) that can be used as a signal processing accelerator or in real-time signal processing applications.
Keysight PathWave FPGA Software includes a schematic-based workflow to configure the M5200A's FPGA. This allows users to insert custom logic, digital signal processing algorithms, and memory blocks. In addition, partial reconfigurable technology allows users to modify allocated regions without needing to turn off and restart the device, making it easier for developers to iterate through their designs and minimizing downtime associated with automated test systems. There are four SMB trigger I/O connectors and hardware sequencing capabilities that allow the user to synchronize their acquisitions with other external events or other PXI instruments. Clocking for the M5200A comes from either the Front Panel MCX Input that accepts a reference clock at 2.4 GHz or the MCX Output that allows multi-module synchronization and the Chassis PXI_CLK100 clock source.
In terms of noise performance, the M5200A provides an RMS noise specification of less than 800 microvolts (µVrms) and a spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) of greater than 65 dBc out to 1 GHz (greater than 40 dBc at 2 GHz). These performance metrics provide the signal fidelity required for quantum bit read-out and control. Aerospace and defense testing of electronic warfare signals and wide-band communication signals utilizes the M5200A's high instantaneous bandwidth capability. Once digitized, samples can be streamed across the backplane of the host system, directly to the host controller or RAID storage for real-time analysis or archival purposes.
