- This notice is a combined synopsis/solicitation for commercial items prepared in accordance with the format in FAR Subpart 12.6, as supplemented with additional information included in this notice. This announcement constitutes the only solicitation; offers are being requested and a written solicitation will not be issued. This notice is being issued as a Request for Quotations (RFQ) for One High Speed Multi-channel Waveform Digitizer System for Shock Tube Instrumentation. A high speed waveform digitizer system is required. The system shall be equipped with 8 channels initially with expansion capability to at least 48 channels. The digitizer channels shall have the following performance specifications: (1.) Simultaneous sampling rate (no interleaving): 200 MS/s; (2.) 16 bit resolution; (3.) Programmable full scale input ranges from 0.05 to 10 Vpp @ 50 (ohms); (4.) Waveform memory at least 8 Ms/channel; (5.) External trigger ? 5 V max; trigger level user selectable; (6.) VXI open architecture format, with at least 4 channels per card; (7.) Trigger synchronization between cards using local timing bus. The hardware support system shall have the following specifications: (8.) VXI chassis; (9.) Chassis shall support cards for future expansion with a selection of acquisition rates up to 200 Ms/s; (10.) IEEE 1394 controller for VXI slot 0; (11.) Rack-mountable industrial PC with Intel P4 processor, IEEE 1394 communication port, at least 4 free PCI expansion slots, 1 GB RAM, 80 GB hard drive, and CDRW/DVDRW combo drive. Instrument control software shall also be supplied which has the following features: (12.) Automatic hardware detection; (13.) Default test configuration with detected hardware; (14.) User configurable transducer library with the ability map transducer characteristics to selected channels; (15.) Automatic channel configuration requiring only specification of expected range in engineering units; (16.) Configuration files to capture experiment settings, including channel count, transducer characteristics (i.e. calibration values), and trigger characteristics; (17.) Oscilloscope mode to test channels; (18.) Data file format that includes all channel settings and transducer characteristics. The system shall be integrated and supplied for turn-key operation. Please include shipping charges. The provisions and clauses in the RFQ are those in effect through FAC 2005-11.
