A scalable arbitrary waveform generator for atomic physics experiments based on field-programmable gate array technology.

We present a field-programmable gate array (FPGA) based control system that has been implemented to control a strontium optical lattice clock at the National Physical Laboratory, UK. Bespoke printed circuit boards have been designed and manufactured, including an 8-channel, 16-bit digital to analog converter board with a 2 μs update rate and a 4-channel direct-digital synthesis board clocked at 1 GHz. Each board includes its own FPGA with 28 digital output lines available alongside the specialized analog or radio frequency outputs. The system is scalable to a large number of control lines by stacking the individual boards in a master-slave arrangement. The timing of the digital and analog outputs is based on the FPGA clock and is thus very predictable and exhibits low jitter. A particular advantage of our hardware is its large data buffers that, when combined with a pseudoclock structure, allow complex waveforms to be created. A high reliability of the system has been demonstrated during extended atomic clock frequency comparisons.
