APPLICOS WFD22 Module

A 22 bit Waveform Digitizer for medium-speed / high resolution waveform capturing and analyzing

The module combines a superior dynamic performance with a very high DC accuracy.

Excellent THD and SNR

The WFD20 has a THD of -122 dB (typical (f-in = 1 kHz)) and a SNR of 105 dB (typical (DC- 500 kHz)).

Medium Speed and High Resolution

The WDF22 offers 1 MHz max. sample speed at 22 bit resolution.

The module features fully differential inputs to reduce common-mode level disturbances. It can also be used in Single Ended mode where an internal DC-offset source sets the midscale level. In this mode the negative input can be used as a GND Sense input, so the DC performance won’t be compromised due to ground currents. The user can select between a 100 MΩ low bias current input for highest absolute accuracy, or a 1 MΩ ultra-low noise input for highest dynamic performance. There are 10 input ranges from 0.425 Vpp to 10.2 Vpp, which allows easy adaptation to a wide range of Device Under Test output voltages. A filter-bank with 3 Low Pass filters (40 kHz, 250 kHz and 500 kHz) provides excellent signal conditioning resulting in lower noise and proper anti-aliasing.

Our proprietary technology combines four 20 bit ADCs to create an advanced 22 bit converter. This results in excellent SNR and linearity with a resolution down to 0.1 µV. The large capture memory of 32M-word (96 MB) allows capturing long waveforms. This can be very useful when a high number of averages is required. All these features together result in the highest accuracy available when performing analog measurements. DAC linearity and dynamic performance measurements are a breeze with the WFD22 in the ATX7006 system. Also applications like: Power meter testing, MRI amplifier test, Quantum effect research, etc. will benefit from the outstanding analog performance of the WFD22.
