| NIST Digital Servo XEM6010 |
The Time and Frequency Division of the Ion Storage Group at the National Institute of Standards and Technology have created an open-source general purpose digital feedback controller using the XEM6010. According to the project description, “it has been optimized for feedback control of lasers in atomic, molecular, and optical (AMO) physics experiments, but it should be applicable in other control applications with similar bandwidth, noise, and loop shape requirements.”Their paper, An Open Source Digital Servo for AMO Physics Experiments, describes the details and their GitHub project includes sources for the hardware, firmware, software design, and enclosure. |
| Optiphase, Inc. Waveform Generator XEM3001  Article |
Optiphase manufactures interferometric fiber optic sensor solutions. John Dailing at Optiphase has developed a PC-controlled Waveform and Timing Generator (WTG) Instrument using the Opal Kelly XEM3001 mated with a custom adapter PCB. The WTG Instrument was developed to support R&D instrument development where fully custom and fully embedded solutions are not practical. For more information on this equipment, please see our summary page. |

| Radix20 Design Services ASIC Simulation / Emulation XEM3050, XEM3010 |
Radix20 is using the XEM3050 to develop a design that will become an ASIC implementation in the final product, a GPS receiver for Magellan Systems. “With the XEM3050, we are able to operate the simulations faster than real-time, dramatically reducing the time required for design verification… We are so happy with the performance of the XEM3050 that we are considering reworking our entire design verification system and demo unit to use this module,” says Gil Herbeck, President of Radix20. |
