Description


RIGOL SUA8204 4-Channel 4 GSa/s, 1.5 GHz Digitiser

The RIGOL SUA8204 is a four-channel, 14-bit digitiser for synchronous acquisition of wideband signals. It combines a 4 GSa/s sample rate, DC to 1.5 GHz analogue bandwidth, 1 Gpts per-channel cache depth and 32 GB/s cache bandwidth with ring-buffer and streaming acquisition modes. Its integrated CPU controller, Linux operating system and high-speed network interfaces make it a practical foundation for automated acquisition, waveform recording and multi-instrument measurement systems.

Key Features
  • Standard-configured modular digital transceiver platform with waveform generation, signal acquisition and waveform recording capabilities across the series.
  • Up to four AWG channels at 8 GSa/s with 14-bit resolution and DC to 3.5 GHz analogue bandwidth.
  • Up to eight digitiser channels at 4 GSa/s with 14-bit resolution and DC to 1.5 GHz analogue bandwidth.
  • Up to 1 Gpts per-channel waveform or acquisition depth, depending on model.
  • Long-term multi-device synchronisation for arrays of more than 100 instruments, with channel-to-channel delay within 1 ps inside an instrument and inter-device synchronisation within 10 ps.
  • Choice of CPU-controlled or NVIDIA Orin AGX GPU-AI-controlled models.
  • Web-based UltraArray control for local or remote management, plus APIs and SCPI support for automation and secondary development.
  • Ring-buffer and streaming acquisition modes with DDC, decimation and truncation on digitiser-equipped models.
  • 10 GbE SFP+ and 1 GbE RJ45 networking, with HDMI and two USB 3.0 Type-A interfaces.
  • Compact 1.5U-format chassis suitable for benchtop, integrated-system and rack-mounted use.
Applications
  • Wideband arbitrary waveform generation and RF/microwave signal stimulus.
  • High-speed multi-channel signal acquisition and waveform recording.
  • Transceiver, radar and automotive-radar intermediate-frequency testing.
  • Phased-array, distributed-array and coherent multi-instrument systems.
  • Radio astronomy and remote-sensing research.
  • Power-grid monitoring and partial-discharge measurement.
  • Automated production test and hardware-in-the-loop systems.
  • AI-assisted signal classification, monitoring and intelligent data processing on GPU-AI models.
  • Research, industrial metrology and custom laboratory measurement platforms.

The SUA8000 Series supports synchronised operation of more than 100 instruments with exceptional long-term stability: intra-device channel-to-channel delay stays within 1 ps, while inter-device channel synchronisation holds within 10 ps—reliable enough for 24/7 array transceiver systems. Such outstanding timing performance sharply boosts system coherence, delivering robust technical support for large-scale distributed transceiver applications.

Long - time synchronous operation of multiple devices

The SUA8000 Series offers two master-control options to suit different application needs: a CPU control module built around a high-performance V2000 processor for superior computation and task scheduling, and a GPU-AI control module based on the powerful Orin AGX platform, optimised for AI and deep-learning workloads to handle complex data analytics and intelligent processing.

Main control dual selection

The SUA8000 Series adopts the web-based UltraArray control platform, enabling local and remote device management with true plug-and-play convenience. A comprehensive library of built-in APIs simplifies secondary development: users may operate the instruments directly through the interface or tap the APIs to quickly build and deploy customised systems, execute complex tasks, and meet diverse application needs.

Arrayed console

Compact SUA8000 units slip easily into existing systems, custom benches, or tight nested setups. A 1.5-U chassis holds up to eight channels, so a 32-U rack can host 128—maximizing space and simplifying layouts in labs, production lines, and other centralised test sites.

Highly integrated with a compact body

From radio-astronomy asteroid hunts and power-grid partial-discharge monitoring to automotive-radar IF tests, engineers rely on the SUA8000. Its precise generate/capture paths and smart processing yield accurate, efficient results across demanding research, industrial, and commercial tasks.
