Class Description

class atomiq.components.electronics.adc.ADC(num_chan, *args, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: Component, Measurable

An analog-to-ditigal converter (ADC) with multiple channels

Many ADCs come with multiple channels that are always sampled together. This class represents such ADCs

Parameters:: num_chan (TInt32) -- Number of channels the ADC has.

A Measurable has one ore more channels at which data can be measured

measure(samples=1, channel='')[source]

Measures all channels and returns the mean for a given number of subsequent samples.

This method advances the timeline by samples * sampling_time

Parameters:

samples (artiq.compiler.types.TMono('int', OrderedDict({'width': artiq.compiler.types.TValue(32)}))) -- number of samples to take and average
channel (artiq.compiler.types.TMono('str', OrderedDict()))

Return type:

artiq.compiler.types.TMono('array', OrderedDict({'elt': artiq.compiler.types.TMono('float', OrderedDict()), 'num_dims': artiq.compiler.types.TValue(1)}))
