The GaGe Cobra family of high-speed digitisers is now available exclusively in the UK from TTi (Thurlby Thandar Instruments). Each GaGe Cobra Compuscope unit features up to two channels on a single-slot PCi card with 1 GS/s or 2 GS/s sampling per channel and 256 MS of on-board acquisition memory as standard - upgradeable to 512 MS, 1 GS, 2 GS or 4GS. Full signal bandwidth of up to 700 MHz with 2 GS/s sampling can be achieved on both channels. Up to eight cards can be synchronised using true internal synchronisation to provide up to 16 channels in a single system.

Advanced timing features such as trigger time sampling, clock in/out and trigger-in/trigger-out help to ensure accurate data capture. Multiple records can be captured with a minimum record length of 16 bits, allowing high-speed repetitive events to be stored on board before downloading.

Powerful on-board firmware options including signal averaging, finite-impulse-response filtering and peak detection allow the waveform to be analysed on the card and downloaded via the fast (200 Mbyte/s) PCi interface.

Programming-free operation is provided with GageScope(r) oscilloscope software, and software development kits are available for LabVIEW, MATLAB and C/C# to allow Cobra digitisers to be easily integrated into users' measurement systems.

Cobra digitisers will replace the popular GaGe Compuscope 82G and 8500 products. Special education discounts are available for academic users.
