Tabor Proteus 9GHz Arbitrary Waveform Transceiver Benchtop Series

Introducing Tabor’s all new Proteus series, the world’s first Arbitrary Waveform Transceiver. In a compact desktop platform, the system integrates the ability to transmit, receive and perform digital signal processing all in a single instrument. The small footprint system, that can generate up to 12 channels in a single box, offers industry leading performance, various configuration options, an innovative task oriented programming, and user programmable FPGA. So whether it is for Aerospace and Defence, Telecommunications, Automotive, Medical or high-end physics applications Proteus opens the door to a world of infinite possibilities.

Compact and space efficient
The desktop version of the Proteus series offers up to 12 channels in a 4U, half 19” dedicated chassis. The compact form size and small footprint saves valuable bench space. So for synchronized, phase coherent, multi-channel applications such as quantum physics and radar applications the Proteus arbitrary waveform transceiver is an ideal, space efficient and cost effective solution.

Extra-fast communication interface
Spending more time setting up your generated scenario than actually running it? The Proteus desktop platform offers the fastest standardized communication interfaces commonly available in PCs today. These include USB3.0 and 10GE interfaces as well as, a thunderbolt 3 interface which enables up to 40Gb/s of data transfer speed. These enable the user to easily connect to the Proteus arbitrary waveform transceiver and still offer some of the fastest waveform download available on the market today, saving you one of your most valuable resources, time.

Feedback control system
Many of today’s applications, require conditional waveform generation depending on input signals from the environment. The Proteus arbitrary waveform transceiver flawlessly integrates both DAC and ADC in one system, controlled by a single FPGA for optimal synchronization and minimum latency. This high speed control system provides a feedback loop for fast decision making on the fly with minimum latency.

Generate any imaginable scenario
The new series offers an innovative task oriented sequence programming where user can change the full instrument set up at every line of the task table. In addition, not only can users of the Proteus series instruments generate and download waveforms simultaneously, they can stream data directly to the FPGA without the need to use the built in memory. This enables generating random, unique and infinitely long scenarios directly from the controlling PC at DAC speeds of up to 6GS/s. So no matter whether your scenario is extremely complex, infinite or even dynamic you can generate it with the Proteus series model.
