Introduction

The M78 is an M-Module™ for acquisition of up to four analog and eight digital signals with a wide bandwidth at a maximum resolution of 12 bits and a sampling rate of up to 50 MS/s. A local 16 MB RAM buffers the converted values. The buffer contents can be transferred to the host.

The M-Module™ has onboard input signal conditioning. This is implemented adding a small PCB, which guarantees maximum flexibility for manifold applications.

Variable trigger functions permit application of the M78 as a genuine digital storage oscilloscope and implementation of modular multichannel systems. Typical applications include simulators, analysis systems, high-speed data loggers or automotive diagnostic systems.

The M78 is based on the M-Module™ ANSI mezzanine standard. It can be used as an I/O extension in any type of bus system, i.e. CPCI, VME or on any type of stand-alone SBC. Appropriate M-Module™ carrier cards in 3U, 6U and other formats are available from MEN or other manufacturers.
