M3i.4111 - Spectrum Transient Recorders Digitizers

Spectrum M3i.4111 Overview

The 6 models of the M3i.41xx series are designed for fast and high quality data acquisition. Each of the input channels has its own monolithic A/D converter and its own programmable input amplifier. This allows the simultaneous recording of signals on both channels with 14 bit resolution without any phase delay between them. The extremely large on-board memory allows lengthy recording times even at the highest sampling rates. All boards of the M3i.41xx series may use the whole installed on-board memory for the currently activated number of channels. A FIFO mode is also integrated on the board. This permits the continuous acquisition of data for online processing or for data storage to hard disk.
