Time Stretch Enhanced Recording Scope (TiSER Scope)
- Technology Benefits
- Improved acquisition times over current sampling oscilloscopes, by 3-4 orders of magnitude Ability to record ultra-fast non-repetitive dynamics that occur within the segment period
- Technology Application
- High bandwidth digitizers, for radar applications and EMP detection Oscilloscopes with high bandwidth and real-time capability
- Detailed Technology Description
- Researchers at UCLA have identified a method for sampling entire segments of the incoming signal for reconstruction, which combines the high frequency capability of sampling oscilloscopes with the real time non-repetitive signal detection of real time digitizers. The Time Stretch Enhanced Recording (TiSER) Scope Method is based on time stretching of the incoming signal and subsequent pulse sampling.

Background
Digitizers are broadly categorized into two classes; equivalent-time digitizers (or sampling oscilloscopes) and real-time digitizers. Sampling oscilloscopes sample the incoming signal and then reconstruct it digitally, which requires a long time to obtain the original signal with high fidelity. They have high bandwidth, although not in real-time, and are also not capable of capturing non-repetitive waveforms. Real-time digitizers continually sample the signals as they change, and therefore have real time reporting capability, but have limited input bandwidths, currently only available up to 18-GHz.
