Key benefits of the
Moku Lock-in Amplifier
As the only lock-in solution built on a reconfigurable FPGA, the Moku Lock-in Amplifier offers a versatile, multi-channel platform with exceptional performance.
A versatile digital Lock-in Amplifier for demanding applications
With 600 MHz input bandwidth, >120 dB of dynamic reserve, and up to four input channels, the Moku Lock-in Amplifier offers unmatched performance and an industry-leading price per channel. A wealth of options for reference sources, filters, and PID control, enable you to configure it to your specific experiment.
Dual-phase demodulation for enhanced measurement accuracy
The Moku Lock-in Amplifier features a dual-phase demodulator with cascaded, single-pole lowpass filters to attenuate the second harmonic and suppress noise in each quadrature. View the demodulated in-phase and quadrature signals prior to the lowpass filters using the integrated Oscilloscope.
Work more efficiently with included embedded instruments
Monitor up to four signals at a time using the Moku Lock-in Amplifier’s integrated four-channel, 1.25 GSa/s Oscilloscope, and continuously log data at up to 10 MSa/s using the built-in Data Logger. Additionally, the integrated PID Controller provides real-time control over gain profiles with configurable saturation.
Measure more, with a streamlined user interface
Wirelessly configure and monitor your setup’s performance with the intuitive software. Adjust all settings of the Moku Lock-in Amplifier and other instruments from your desktop, then move around the lab with Moku for iPad or Apple Vision Pro to easily adjust components and control instruments, fully untethered from your lab bench.
Integrate with your preferred software
Moku features API support for Python, MATLAB, and LabVIEW, allowing for straightforward integration of Moku with your existing technology stack.
Engineered for demanding applications
Use the Moku Lock-in Amplifier to accelerate development timelines with speed and flexibility unmatched by any other instrument in its class.
