# Introduction

The ADLINK PXIe-9834 PXI Express digitizer provides high speed, high quality data acquisition. Each of four input channels supports up to 80MS/s sampling, with a 16-bit resolution A/D converter. This allows simultaneous recording of signals on all channels with no inter-channel phase delay. The extremely large onboard memory enables long recording times even at the highest sampling rates.

The PXIe-9834 features flexible input ranges of ±10V (only for 1MΩ), ±5V, ±1V, and ±0.5V along with software selectable 50Ω or 1MΩ input impedance. Four high resolution 16-bit A/D converters combine with a low-noise/high bandwidth analog front-end to make the PXIe-9834 perfect for applications like radar signal acquisition, fiber optic sensing, and many others.
