The conversation focused on two major developments engineers have been asking for: **scalable multichannel synchronization** and **significantly faster data streaming**. Together, these capabilities allow developers to build modular measurement systems with higher channel counts and much greater data throughput. The interview was filmed at the **DigiKey booth**, where Red Pitaya also demonstrated a demo with synchronized multi-board setup. ## Multichannel Synchronization: From Single Boards to Scalable Systems One of the key themes of the discussion was how **multichannel synchronization has evolved** across the Red Pitaya ecosystem. Earlier generations already allowed engineers to perform precise signal acquisition and generation on individual boards. With the **Gen 2 architecture**, however, multiple boards can now be combined into **tightly synchronized measurement systems**. Using **Red Pitaya Click Shields and shared clock distribution**, engineers can synchronize combinations of: - [STEMlab 125-14 PRO Gen 2](https://redpitaya.com/product/stemlab-125-14-pro-gen-2-oem/) - [STEMlab 125-14 PRO Z7020 Gen 2](https://redpitaya.com/product/stemlab-125-14-pro-z7020-gen-2-oem/) - [STEMlab 125-14 4-Input](https://redpitaya.com/product/stemlab-125-14-4-input-oem/) - [SDRlab 122-16](https://redpitaya.com/sdrlab-122-16/) This enables flexible configurations depending on the application. For example, pairing a **STEMlab 125-14 PRO Gen 2 with a STEMlab 125-14 4-Input** creates a synchronized **6-input, 2-output system**, while larger setups can scale to even higher channel counts. For engineers building custom instrumentation, this approach allows them to **expand system capacity using standard modular boards instead of designing custom hardware from scratch**. ## Deterministic Clock and Trigger Alignment Accurate synchronization across multiple devices requires precise clock and trigger control. Red Pitaya’s architecture uses a **clock-select design** that allows engineers to switch between the internal **125 MHz oscillator** and an **external reference clock**. Clock and trigger distribution across boards is handled through the **Click Shield architecture**, which incorporates the **ZL40213 LVDS clock fanout buffer**. This ensures deterministic alignment between boards while maintaining the signal integrity needed for applications such as: - multi-channel data acquisition - synchronized signal generation - RF experiments - control-loop testing - distributed measurement systems For engineers building custom test setups, deterministic synchronization is often the difference between **a collection of boards and a true measurement system**. ![Miha digiKey](https://content.redpitaya.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Miha%20digiKey.jpg?width=1115&height=753&name=Miha%20digiKey.jpg) ## Streaming Speeds Jump from 20 MB/s to 62.5 MB/s Another highlight of the interview was the **major upgrade to Red Pitaya’s streaming architecture**. Through software optimization and improved data handling, streaming throughput between the board and host computer increased from **20 MB/s to 62.5 MB/s per board**. This improvement significantly expands what engineers can do with real-time data. Higher throughput enables: - longer continuous signal captures - faster waveform playback - higher-resolution data acquisition - real-time signal analysis pipelines For users working with **data-intensive experiments**, the increase in streaming speed removes a major bottleneck. ## Deep Memory Generation for Advanced Signal Workflows The Gen 2 platform also introduces **Deep Memory Generation**, a feature that allows engineers to stream waveform data directly from system memory to the DAC outputs. Combined with synchronized multi-board setups, this opens new possibilities for: - complex waveform generation - hardware-in-the-loop simulations - synchronized stimulus-response testing - large-scale signal replay experiments Because the architecture supports both **high-speed bursts and long continuous streams**, engineers can tailor the system to their specific workflow. ## Live Demonstration at Embedded World 2026 At Embedded World, Red Pitaya demonstrated these capabilities using **live synchronized setups** running multiple boards together. Visitors to the booth were able to see how modular FPGA-based instrumentation can be scaled into **high-channel-count systems while maintaining precise timing and fast data streaming**. According to Miha Gjura, the goal is to give engineers **the flexibility to build custom instrumentation without the cost and complexity of traditional rack-mounted systems**. ## A Platform Designed for Experimentation and Custom Systems For many developers, the appeal of Red Pitaya lies in its combination of **hardware performance and open architecture**. Engineers can integrate the boards into their workflows using: - Python - MATLAB - custom APIs - FPGA development environments This makes the platform suitable for everything from **research experiments to industrial testing setups**. As multichannel synchronization and high-speed streaming continue to evolve, modular FPGA-based platforms like Red Pitaya are enabling engineers to design **measurement systems that were previously possible only with expensive custom equipment**. ## Watch the Interview The full interview with **Miha Gjura, Field Application Engineer at Red Pitaya**, was recorded at the **DigiKey booth during Embedded World 2026** in Nuremberg. In the video, Miha explains: - how multichannel synchronization evolved at Red Pitaya - how engineers can combine multiple boards into a single system - what enabled the jump to **62.5 MB/s streaming speeds** - how **Deep Memory Generation** expands signal generation workflows Watch the full video to see the system and demonstration discussed in this article.   --- ## FAQ: Multichannel Synchronization and Streaming on Red Pitaya Gen 2 ### What is multichannel synchronization in Red Pitaya systems? Multichannel synchronization allows multiple Red Pitaya boards to operate as a single measurement system. Using shared clock and trigger distribution, engineers can align signal acquisition and generation across several devices with deterministic timing. ### How fast is streaming on the STEMlab Gen 2 platform? The upgraded streaming architecture supports up to **62.5 MB/s per board**, a significant increase from the previous 20 MB/s. This enables higher-throughput signal acquisition and faster waveform generation workflows. ### Can different Red Pitaya boards be synchronized together? Yes. Engineers can synchronize combinations of boards such as **STEMlab 125-14 PRO Gen 2, STEMlab 125-14 PRO Z7020 Gen 2, STEMlab 125-14 4-Input, and SDRlab 122-16** using Click Shields and shared clock distribution. ### What is Deep Memory Generation? Deep Memory Generation allows waveform data to be streamed directly from system memory to DAC outputs. This enables high-speed waveform playback and complex signal generation in synchronized multi-board systems.   ### About the Red Pitaya Team The Red Pitaya Technical Editorial Team is a cross-functional group of technical communicators and product specialists.
