# Introduction

ADLINK’s PCI/PXI-9820 is a 65 MS/s, high-resolution PXI digitizer with deep SODIMM SDRAM memory. The device features flexible input configurations, including programmable input ranges and user-configurable input impedance. With the deep onboard acquisition memory, the PCI-9820/PXI-9820 is not limited by the 132 MB/s bandwidth of PCI bus and can record the waveform for a long period of time. The PCI-9820/PXI-9820 is ideal for high-speed waveform capturing, such as radar and ultrasound applications, as well as software radio applications, or those signal digitizing applications which need deep memory for data storage.
