Acquire Drive Signals
Have Confidence in Your Design & Testing

With the DDA 260, you have the sample rate, bandwidth and capture window necessary for precisely capturing head signals. The outstanding capture and analysis capabilities provide excellent design tools and ensure long usable lifetime of your capital investment.

Sample Rate

1 Channel 16 GS/s
4 Channels 4 GS/s

Capture Memory

1 Channel 64 Mpts
4 Channels 16 Mpts

Bandwidth

2 GHz

The number of samples per PW50 or per bit-cell-time determines your signal analysis accuracy. It is recommended to use a minimum of 5 or more samples per PW50 for head signal measurements or per bit-cell-time for channel emulation.

Capture Window 

The DDA 260 provides up to 64 Mpts capture memory on a single channel to acquire 16 ms of continuous data at 4 GS/s, or over 150 40-µs servo bursts at 1 GS/s.

Drive Triggers

The LeCroy DDA 260 has powerful triggering features for capturing disk drive signals of interest. You can rapidly set up triggers using familiar disk drive terminology.
