Keysight / Agilent / HP E1432A 16-Channel 51.2 kSa/s Digitizer Plus DSP (w/ Option 1D4)

The Keysight/Agilent/HP E1432A is a C-size, single-slot VXI measurement module delivering 16-channel data acquisition and onboard digital signal processing in a single card. It accommodates up to four 4-channel input assemblies, each digitizing at 51.2 kSa/s with 16-bit resolution. A 33 MHz Motorola 96002 DSP processor handles real-time signal processing, while up to 32 MB of DRAM and dual 128K word static RAM banks support high-speed computation and data storage. The module conforms to VXI revision 1.4 standards and integrates transducer signal conditioning, anti-alias filtering, and measurement computation. With Option 1D4, a 16-bit arbitrary source adds sine, random, and arbitrary waveform generation capability with output amplitude of 10 Vp nominal and 50Ω output impedance. ## Technical Specifications • Module Type: C-size, single-slot VXI measurement module • VXI Conformance: VXI revision 1.4 • Channels: Configurable 4 to 16 channels (four 4-channel input assemblies) • Sample Rate: 51.2 kSa/s per channel maximum • ADC Resolution: 16 bits • DSP Processor: 33 MHz Motorola 96002 • Memory: Up to 32 MB DRAM; 2 banks of 128K word static RAM • FIFO Depth: 2 MSa/number of active channels (4 MB DRAM standard); 16 MSa/number of active channels (32 MB DRAM with Option ANC) • Data Transfer Rates: Local bus 15.7 MB/s; VXI path 15 Mbytes/sec (7.5 Msamples/sec); VME bus 6.9 MB/s (16-bit integer) or 27.6 MB/s (64-bit floating point) • Synchronization: 2 or 4 TTL TRG_ lines for multi-module sync ## Key Features • Integrated signal conditioning and anti-alias filtering • Onboard DSP for high-speed measurement computation • Optional 16-bit arbitrary source (Option 1D4) with sine, random, and arbitrary waveforms • Reconstruction filter bandwidth (Arb modes): 0 to 6.4 kHz • A24 address and D32 data transfer capability ## Electrical Specifications • Source Output (Option 1D4): 10 Vp nominal amplitude; 50Ω output impedance • Source Sample Rate: Matches input channel sample rate; cannot be 40.000 kHz when active ## Typical Applications Multi-channel vibration monitoring, structural health assessment, acoustic measurement, transducer-based condition monitoring, and integrated data acquisition with real-time DSP processing.
