4- Channel PXI Source Measure Unit (SMU)
GX3104
The GX3104 is a precision 3U PXI module that forces and senses both voltage and current over a range of ±20 V and up to ± 1 A ( channel 1) with channels 2- 4 capable of supplying up to 500 mA. Total available output current from the module is 1A. The four channels are electrically isolated from the PXI power supply and share a common, isolated ground.

16-Bit Multi-Function CPCI Card With A/D, D/A And Digital I/O Channels
GX3216 Series
The GX3216 is a multi-channel analog input and output cPCI module, supporting 16 differential input channels and two analog output channels. Dedicated 1 MS/s D to As and A to Ds allow simultaneous acquisition and generation of analog signals. Input ranges are software-selectable as ±10 V, ±5 V or ±2.5 V. The inputs are divided into two channel groups, with an independent software-controlled range assignable to each group. Two analog output channels provide software-selected output ranges of ±2.5 V, ±5 V or ±10 V and independent of the input range assignments. Output data is provided via two dedicated control registers, or through a 256 K-Sample FIFO buffer for waveform generation. Six bidirectional digital I/O lines are also available and can be programmed as inputs or outputs.

16-Bit Multi-Function With A/D, D/A And Digital I/O Channels CPCI Cards
GX3232 Series
The GX3232 is a multi-channel 16-bit, analog input and output cPCI module, supporting 32 single-ended or 16 differential input channels and four analog output channels. The inputs can be software configured for differential or single-end operation and are sequentially scanned with a maximum aggregate scan rate of 300 kS/s. Three input ranges are software-selectable: ±10 V, ±5 V or ±2.5 V. Optionally, the GX3232 is available with a high voltage input configuration and supports three ranges: ±60 V, ±30 V and ±15 V. The high voltage configuration supports 16 single-ended or 8 differential input channels for high voltage and 16 single-ended or 8 differential inputs for low voltage measurement. Four analog output channels provide software-selectable output ranges of ±2.5 V, ±5 V or ±10 V. The outputs can be updated either synchronously or asynchronously and support waveform generation. Each output can be clocked at rates up to 300 kS/s. A 16-bit digital I/O port is also provided, which supports 16 bidirectional data lines. Note that when used with a TS-700 system only 8 of these digital I/O lines are available at the test system's receiver interface.

Multi-Function PXI Card
GX3788
The GX3788 is a user configurable, FPGA-based, 3U PXI multi-function card which supports digital and analog test capabilities. The card employs the Altera Stratix III FPGA which features over 45,000 logic elements and 1.836 Kb of memory. The GX3788 is based on the GX3700 FPGA card and includes an integral daughter board which provides (8) differential input, 16-bit, 250 MS/s A to D converters and (8), 16-bit, 1 MS/s, D to A converters. The module's FPGA is pre-programmed, providing access to all digital and analog functions. Alternatively, users can program or modify the FPGA , allowing user to adapt the module to their own specific test needs. The design of the FPGA is done by using Altera's free Quartus II Web Edition tool set. Once the user has compiled the FPGA design, the configuration file can be loaded into the FPGA directly or via an on-board EEPROM.
