Waveform Sequencing on Analog Discovery

[ccamm]

Hi there,

I am interested in using an analog discovery board as a waveform generator and was wondering if it is possible to perform waveform sequencing with the Analog Discovery 3 (or any other suitable DAQ board)?

The sequencing needs to have similar functionality to Keysight's Trueform waveform sequencing products, in particular being able to peform a particular waveform until a TTL trigger is received.

 

Thanks

Hi @ccamm

It is not supported. For T&M devices with WaveForms support it could be implemented using custom application but this implies reaction time of milliseconds. The AD3 supports in device AM/FM/PM/SUM using arbitrary waveforms or Scope input routing to AWG output or AM/FM..., playing of long waveforms at lower rate using data streaming...
Sequencing could be implemented in the device using the Zmods and EclypseZ7, but this requires embedded and HDL (Zynq/FPGA) knowledge.
