National Instruments AT-1212 (Part Number: 782248-02) is a high-performance signal generator adapter module engineered for FlexRIO systems. This DC-coupled, single-ended input module delivers exceptional signal generation capabilities with a maximum update rate of 1.25 GS/s.

• 2 analog output (AO) channels for simultaneous signal generation
• 14-bit analog output resolution with 480 MHz bandwidth
• Programmable output range from -2V to +2V
• Maximum update rate of 1.25 GS/s for high-speed applications
• Integrated clock generator with 25 MHz TCXO source
• Compatible with FlexRIO FPGA modules (Kintex-7, Virtex-5)
• Advanced capability for generating complex waveforms

The AT-1212 module features a CLIP DESIGN architecture based on 2 digital-to-analog converters (DACs) that precisely control the analog output channels. The module includes 2 LVDS input ports, each consisting of 14 differential LVDS signals operating at half the DAC clock speed. An integrated clock generator provides essential timing signals sourced from a 25 MHz TCXO. A dedicated microcontroller manages DAC parameters, controls multiplexer output, and ensures proper power-up sequencing for reliable operation.
