500-MS/s digitizer costs less than $3,000

Suited for use by OEMs, the $2,895 BASE-8 CompuScope digitizer provides a single digitizing channel with 8-bit resolution, 200 MHz bandwidth, and sampling speeds up to 500 Msamples/s. Custom on-board eXpert (FPGA) signal processing is also available to offload CPU-intensive processing from a host PC.

Custom options also include more simultaneous channels, rates to 2 Gsamples/s, memory to 4 Gsamples, and advanced timing signals. Software development kits for C/C++, MATLAB, LabVIEW, and other programming environments are also available, and the digitizers are compatible with GageScope oscilloscope software. ($2,895 — available now.)
