128-Channel Analog-to-Digital Converter
The LEGION ADC offers fully parallel operation for simultaneous data acquisition from all channels without multiplexing in an ultra-compact external USB enclosure. Each unit supports 128-element detectors. It was designed by PhotoSound for massively parallel data acquisition utilized in photoacoustic, laser-induced ultrasound, and X-ray acoustic real-time imaging applications.
Features
- Compact, durable and light enclosures with integrated cooling fans
- Streaming ADCs for continuous data acquisition with no buffering or multiplexing
- Each analog channel has integrated amplifier with digitally controlled gain
- Acoustoelectrics
- Generate trigger output at defined rate or repetition of external trigger input with programmed delay
- Connect up to four units in parallel and acquire more data at fast data acquisition rates
- Sync external hardware with data acquisition using electronic or optical IN/OUT ports
- Standalone control software based on MATLAB, open SDK written in C# and access to raw RF data
