Abstract
A signal acquisition circuit for acquiring data of an input signal comprising at least n acquisition units, wherein n is integer greater than one, the n acquisition units comprising k inputs, wherein k is integer greater than one, and wherein at least two inputs are assigned to one channel and the corresponding acquisition units run time interleaved, and at least one trigger unit, wherein the number 1 of the at least one trigger unit is integer and wherein 1 is smaller than k. Further, a single-housed device as well as a method of acquiring data of an input signal are described.
Claims18
A signal acquisition circuit for acquiring data of an input signal, said signal acquisition circuit comprising:
- at least n acquisition units, wherein n is integer greater than one, said n acquisition units comprising k inputs, wherein k is integer greater than one, and wherein at least two inputs are assigned to one channel and the corresponding acquisition units run time interleaved, and
- at least one trigger unit, wherein the number 1 of the at least one trigger unit is integer and wherein 1 is smaller than k.
A method of acquiring data of an input signal, comprising:
- receiving said input signal via a channel;
- interleaving said input signal into interleaved input signals;
- forwarding said interleaved input signals to inputs of acquisition units that run time interleaved;
- and
- forwarding a first interleaved input signal from a first acquisition unit to a trigger unit assigned to a second acquisition unit.
