SP Devices launches the world’s first 14-bit resolution digitizer for Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) applications

September 19, 2016

Built on SP Devices’ original 14-bit digitizer, the ADQ14OCT has been optimised for the SS-OCT market through variable clock input compatability of 10-1000 MHz and the addition of embedded signal processing functions in the Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). These changes facilitate a simplified system design that increases overall system performance to match the most challenging measurement situations.

The ADQ14OCT utilizes the longest embedded Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) in OCT digitizers and sustains streaming of up to one billion captured wavelengths per second, delivering the market’s highest image resolution for SS-OCT.</ … Read More → "SP Devices launches the world’s first 14-bit resolution digitizer for Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT) applications"
