Graphical Waveform Editor and Instrument
PI-PAT
-
Much more than just a visualization tool, PI-PAT is a full-fledged graphical waveform editor that allows you to spend more time testing and less time programming. PI-PAT doesn't require any programming experience or complicated syntax. Just draw or type patterns directly into the pattern window. Move a clock edge by dragging it. Adjust integration times by entering a single number. Change the output to your DUT by clicking the Update button. You'll never have to wrangle DSP or FPGA code with PI-PAT.

Pattern Generator
PI-2005
-
As a test engineer or digital designer you must have state-of-the-art tools to test, characterize and verify your complex semiconductor devices and digital circuit boards. The PI-2005 Pattern Generator will generate a wide range of simple or complex digital patterns for any test application that requires a serial or parallel digital data stream. To meet the requirements of complex devices and digital circuits, the pattern generator can be configured from 16 to 64 output channels.

Instrument Mainframe
PI-11008
-
The PI-11008 Instrument Chassis was designed to accommodate the power and noise requirements of some of Pulse Instruments analog instrument cards. These instrument cards, such as the PI-41401, PI-41702 and others supply signal outputs that require more current from the -12 V supply than available in a standard chassis. Therefore this chassis has a larger -12 V power supply that provides 2.5 Amps.

Four Channel Low-Noise DC Bias Card
PI-41702
-
The PI-41702 is a four channel bipolar DC Bias supply that can provide an output current up to 100 mA per channel. The output voltage ranges from –8 V to +8 V, and this card has special filter circuitry to reduce the output noise for those applications that require a low noise bias output. Additionally there is a ‘D’ type connector that allows the introduction of laboratory type supplies to reduce the noise further. To change from using the internal power supplies to external power supplies requires repositioning jumpers. The PI-41702 also has voltage and current sense for remote measurement of the voltage and current levels.

Digital Acquisition Card
PI-41000
-
The PI-41000-4G is a CompactPCI® bus based instrument card that allows the user to capture up to 32-bits of digital data into an on-board memory at clock rates up to 120 MHz. The inputs are software configurable to provide one 32-bit wide channel, one 16-bit wide channel with double depth or two 16-bit channels. When configured with a single 16-bit input, the card will capture at up to 120 MHz. When configured with two 16-bit inputs or as a single 32-bit input, the card will capture at up to 80 MHz. Each digital data channel requires three timing signals, frame, line and pixel to accommodate the data capture. When operating in a two channel mode, clocks from channel A can be used to provide timing to channel B. For wider words or multiple channels, more boards can be used in parallel.

Dual Channel, Low-Noise DC Bias Card
PI-41701
-
The PI-41701 is a dual channel bipolar DC Bias supply that can provide an output current up to 100 mA per channel. The output voltage ranges from –8 V to +8 V and features programmable current limits with LED indicators and software interrupt to show/alert the user if the channel is in current limit. This card has special filter circuitry to reduce the output noise for those applications that require a low noise bias output.

Dual Channel Driver Card
40461
-
Two channels of 8 to 10 MHz drivers (25 V amplitude). The output voltage range is ±25V, with independent high and low voltage settings. The inputs to the Card are optically isolated. The card also contains voltage and current sense capability, which allows muxing of the current or voltage output measurements from all the Driver Channels in the system to a single DVM. The card allows independent programming of the rise and fall time of each channel as low as one nanosecond increments.
