DC1796A-F

The DC1796A-F is a precision, low-noise portable instrumentation platform used for testing and evaluating analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) in the laboratory setting. It provides a wide variety of signal processing operations within its small, lightweight form factor. It has a range of analog inputs, DAC outputs, temperature sensors, and an oscilloscope subsystem, as well as the capability to acquire and analyze signals. The design of the instrument allows users to simultaneously capture, plot, and measure data from multiple ADCs and signal processing elements.

The DC1796A-F has a 16-bit Analog-to-Digital Converter (ADC), designed to convert analog signals to digital form for further signal analysis and processing. It supports a wide range of inputs, from low-noise audio signals to high-speed signals measuring up to 100 MHz, with resolution settings from 8 to 16 bits. It has adjustable preprocessing and filtering settings to enable more precise results from measurements.

The instrument is also capable of acquiring data and performing signal processing operations, such as peak detection, statistical analysis, and noise reduction. Digital outputs can be combined with analog inputs to enable more comprehensive signal processing. It also records vital system information, like power supply voltages, temperature reading, and other environmental conditions.

The DC1796A-F features a 4.3-inch color touch screen and is equipped with a micro-SD card slot for data storage. With its connectivity ports, users can transfer test results to remote clients or to a PC platform with support for USB, 4-wire SPI, and I2C protocol.

The DC1796A-F is designed for laboratory use, yet it is capable of standing up to tough industrial environments, thanks to its robust, shock and vibration tolerant design. Through efficient current utilization, the instrument can operate off of USB power or use an external power supply source.
