LeCroy 2256A

The Model 2256 features an input attenuation dial as well as several input and output connections. The Model 2256 is a high-speed, waveform digitizer providing high resolution, multichannel solutions to waveform recording requirements. Designed in a modular standard for ease of system configuration, the 2262 offers four digitizers per module. The 2256 is compatible with CAMAC (IEEE-583), and works with IBM PC-based software for easy, user oriented, waveform display and control.

The 2256 is DC-coupled with an analog bandwidth in excess of 40 MHz. User selectable sampling rates up to 80 MS/sec coupled with 10-bit resolution and dynamic range match a broad spectrum of applications. The 2256 excels in applications such as chamber and detector development for nuclear physics.

Features include: Fast Digitizing Rate - Standard sampling rate is 40 megasamples/sec. The 2262 Biphase Mode results in doubling (80 megasamples/sec) of the sample rate at the expense of two signal inputs. Multiple Independent Inputs - Each 2262 has four inputs and is capable of measuring four waveforms simultaneously at the sampling frequency or two waveforms at double that frequency. Built-in Calibration Trim DACs - Internal DACs allow calibration under software control to ensure maximum fidelity of measurement regardless of the time and temperature. High Resolution - A wide 10-bit dynamic range gives 1.5 mV resolution over a full scale of 1.53 V, providing maxi mum detail capture in the measurement. Convenient Test Capability - Front-panel input applies identical test signals to all four channels. Bipolar Operation - Input range is a full 1.5 V, offset anywhere between -1.5 V and +1.5 V to ensure adaptability to the polarity characteristics of the signal.
