Flashy acquisition board
Flashy is an high-speed analog acquisition board.
It is typically used with an FPGA board to create a digital oscilloscope.
Here's a one-channel Flashy (top board) with a BNC connector and a Pluto-II (bottom board). The combination makes a one-channel 100MSPS (mega-samples-per-seconds) digital oscilloscope.
The Flashy boards come in three speed grades.
- 60MHz oscillator with ADC08060 (runs from 20MHz to 70MHz typ.)
- 100MHz oscillator with ADC08100 (runs from 20MHz to 125MHz typ.)
- 125MHz/133MHz oscillator with ADC08200 (runs from 10MHz to 230MHz typ.)
When Flashy is used in conjunction with KNJN FPGA boards, you also get
- FlashyMini (source code): retrieve data to the PC.
- FlashyDemo (binary): digital oscilloscope with GUI.
Note that there are actually four boards available.
| Board name | V-pos | V-range | Period output | # of inputs |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Flash | POT | - | - | 1 |
| Flashy | POT & DAC | POT & DAC | Yes | 1 |
| FlashD | POT | - | - | 2 |
| FlashyD | POT & DAC | POT & DAC | Yes | 2 |
Legend:
- POT=potentiometer control (requires the use of a small screwdriver)
- DAC=digital control
