Technical
The WILD FMC+ QM60 ADC & DAC allows ADC and DAC sample rates as high as 6GSps and 12GSps, respectively, and provides up to eight channels of high speed, precision analog-to-digital and twelve channels of digital-to-analog converter outputs for a compatible motherboard. It provides excellent analog performance with flexible high-precision trigger options.
