Swedish company, Strategic Test AB, has now released its next generation "UltraFast" PCIe instrumentation platform called UF4e. The new platform fulfills the multiple customer requests for increased streaming bandwidth and higher sampling rates. Acquisition data is stored inside the 4 GByte on-board buffer and can be read out at more than 3 GByte/s through the PCI Express x8 Gen2. The ¾ card length plug-in cards are compatible to Gen1 and Gen3 and need a PCI Express slot with 8 or 16 physical lanes.
