BRoaD Ⅲ

Zoom the image.
“BRoaD Ⅲ”which has been highly evaluated in the field of research and development, has evolved further with an updated FPGA. While maintaining the various functions of the previous version, a random pulse generation function and a clock multiplication function have been newly added. Try the new BRoaD III to build ever more complex and sophisticated measurement systems.
Power supply is AC100 V or NIM crate.
8 LEMO connectors for general purpose 50 Ω input, 8 Fast NIM outputs, 8 LVTTL outputs, and sampling rate is 1 GHz and time resolution is 1 ns.
Functions such as Delay,Counter,Measure and logical operators (and,or,not etc.) are applied to the input signals in various combinations.
It can also be used as a pulse generator by generating arbitrary signals internally, and the logic can be freely configured using the accompanying software.
Using these functions, you can easily verify signal processing logic, switch inputs, and compare the outputs of multiple logic circuits.
The logic created can be saved on the PC and downloaded to the device as required, enabling a number of logic configurations to be used repeatedly.
SiTCP technology downloads logic and receives data via the network. This enables the logic to be set, changed and measured , even if the product is located in a remote area.
Up to 16 types of logic can be stored in the device’s internal ROM, and one of the stored logics can be set to be automatically recalled when the power is turned on.
In addition, a Python library (BRoaDpy) shared with the BRoaD1 series is available on GitHub and PyPI .
With this library, the following functions can be controlled from Python scripts.
・Control of MeasureCounter (Connect, Start, Stop, Disconnect)
・Readout of MeasureCounter data
・UserControl ON/OFF switching
(Please refer to README.md for installation and usage instructions)

[New functions from BBT-020A_BRoaDⅢ]
BBT-020A_BRoaD III adds the following functions.
Random pulse generation function
A function to generate time-random pulses has been added as Input: 1ns (fixed) pulses are generated with a granularity of 1ns, and the frequency of generation can be set.
The Xorshift algorithm (128bit) is used to generate pseudo-random numbers.
Clock multiplication function
Clock multiplication function has been added as a new mode of Counter Function. It measures the time from the rising edge of the input to the next rising edge and outputs
pulses with a 50% duty cycle multiplied by the set value of the main counter. The multiplication factor can be set to a value between 1 and 255.
* The above specification may change in a future without notice.
