Liquid Instruments Moku:Pro Integrated Hardware Platforms
Liquid Instruments Moku:Pro Integrated Hardware Platforms combine high-performance hardware with the versatility of software-defined instrumentation to deliver an all-inclusive test and measurement solution. A high-performance Xilinx Ultrascale+ FPGA is coupled with a high-bandwidth analog front end and robust networking and storage.
With partial FPGA reconfiguration, Moku:Pro delivers a full suite of software-defined instruments to support high-speed data acquisition, processing/visualization, waveform generation, and real-time control applications. An innovative hybrid front-end design performs frequency-dependent signal blending from multiple ADCs, delivering exceptional noise performance from acoustic to radio frequencies. Choose from two instrument bundles: the Base Bundle (includes select instruments) and the Full-suite Bundle (includes all instruments).
Use Multi-Instrument Mode to enable the use of multiple instruments simultaneously, allowing users to build custom test configurations with low-latency, lossless interconnects to reduce complex cabling and impairments. Instruments running in this mode can be daisy-chained together to build sophisticated signal processing pipelines and the ability to hot-swap instruments in and out without interrupting those running in tandem.
Advanced users can deploy custom features designed in Moku Cloud Compile. The ability to deploy custom code alongside Moku software-defined instruments provides users with not just the full suite of Moku instrumentation but infinite instruments. With Moku Cloud Compile and Multi-instrument Mode, users can expect more from test equipment - and achieve more as a result.
