I'm using the AD3 as a function generator with python (Waveforms SDK). My sampling rate is very high (20MHz) due to creation of a high frequency sinusoidal signal. I can see that the buffer is only about 16k samples (or maybe 32k under another configuration), which equates to ~0.08ms of data. I'm trying to produce some complex waveforms, i.e. the signal is not simply a continuous sine wave, so simply looping over this buffer won't work. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Or do I need to get something with larger memory? Does Digilent have anything with a larger buffer for waveform generation.
