Notes for Engineers
- Design Freeze: These documents contain all interface information needed for PCB design, connector selection, and system integration.
- Parameter Verification: Specifications are based on product datasheets. Contact BRIDZA for detailed specifications if needed.
- SCPI Compatibility: All programmable instruments use standard SCPI commands for easy integration.
- PCIe Drivers: Linux and Windows driver packages with full API documentation are referenced.
Next Steps
