Introduction
This chapter provides an overview of M8131A digitizer module.
M8131A Overview
The Keysight M8131A is a 16/32 GSa/s digitizer with high bandwidth and
channel density. It offers up to 1.6 GSa waveform memory. The M8131A is
ideally suited to address following key applications:
• Wideband RF/
μ
W – analyses extremely wideband RF signals with an
instantaneous bandwidth of DC to 12.5 GHz for aerospace/defense and
communication applications.
• Physics, chemistry, and electronics research – analyses any
mathematically defined arbitrary waveforms, ultra-short yet precise
pulses and extremely wideband chirps.
• Gapless optical streaming of 10 bit digitized data to DSP module, AWG
or storage system for radar, electronic warfare, satellite or 5G.
Key Features
The M8131A is a digitizer with high sample rate, bandwidth, and channel
density:
• Wide bandwidth
•
4 channels 6.5GHz, sample rate 16 GSa/s on each channel or
•
2 channels 12.5GHz, sample rate 32 GSa/s on each channel
