Tutorial 4: Wideband SpectrometerΒΆ
The SKARAB wideband spectrometer tutorials make use of a SKARAB ADC Board. There are two different bandwidth modes available for a SKARAB ADC Board depending on which ADC module is on the board. These are detailed in the table below:
Bandwidth Mode | Sampling Frequency | Decimation Factor | SKARAB ADC Support |
---|---|---|---|
DDC Mode | 3 GSPS | 4 | All SKARAB ADC Board Types |
Bypass Mode | 2.8 GSPS | None (bypassed) | Only SKARAB ADC Boards with ADC32RF45 |
As such, there are two versions of wideband spectrometer tutorial, one for each mode. Links to these are given below:
