Overview
The ADQ1600 is the world leading 14 bit digitizer. With its unique 1600 MSPS capture rate, enabled by SP Devices’ ADC interleaving technology ADX, the ADQ1600 opens for demanding measurements such as RF/IF sampling, high resolution ultra sound imaging and high-speed data recording.

Analog Front End (AFE)
The AFE of the ADQ1600 is AC-coupled and optimized for spectral purity over a large bandwidth. The analog -3dB bandwidth is 600MHz.  The ADQ1600 has an optional equalizer to enhance the -3dB bandwidth to the entire first Nyquist band, 800 MHz.

Interface to the Host
The digitizer connects to the host via a high-speed USB 2.0 cable for easy to use standalone operation. Compact PCI Express / PXI Express interface is available for systems integration as a modular instrument. A PCIe version for integration into a PC is also available. All interface types allows for streaming of data at high transfer rates.

Software Development Kit (SDK)
The ADQ1600 comes with an easy-to-use API that allows easy integration into any application. Software tools for application development include C/C++, Matlab and DLLs for Windows XP/Vista/Windows7. The SDK also includes SP Devices´ data capture tool, ADCaptureLab.

FPGAs and the ADQ Development Kit
The ADQ1600 is built on the ADQ DSP computational board which employs a Xilinx Virtex 6 LX240T FPGA. The user can access the FPGA and implement customized digital signal processing by purchasing the ADQ Development Kit. This kit contains everything that is needed to get started with the FPGA development, and also includes examples and documentation. See the ADQ DSP product page for more information.

Acquisition Functions
Standard trigger options are external, software and level trigger. The ADQ1600 supports single and multiple records. The multiple records mode can be combined with any trigger function. A time stamp function tags each record with timing information. Enhanced trigger accuracy gives trigger time on sub sample level.
