Red Pitaya Gen 2 er nu i fuld produktion

Red Pitaya, der er en førende aktør inden for software-definerede instrumenterings-platforme, er nu fuld produktion med den nye STEMlab PRO Gen 2 serie, der blev præsenteret tidligere på året.

Red Pitaya, a leader in software-defined instrumentation, today announced full commercial availability of its STEMlab PRO Gen 2 series. Following a strong response to its initial reveal earlier this year, the Gen 2 platform is now mass-produced and shipping globally, marking the company’s next phase in expanding modular instrumentation for industry, research, and education.

Red Pitaya’s community has grown to over 150,000 engineers, students, and researchers worldwide, spanning 5,000 industrial customers, 1,500+ universities, and nearly 700 research institutes. Its platforms are trusted by some of the world’s most advanced innovation hubs, from quantum labs and aerospace R&D centers to top-tier engineering schools and emerging technology companies.

STEMlab Gen 2 architecture builds on a decade of field experience. It offers enhanced RF input performance, lower noise, reduced distortion, and a modernized hardware stack that ensures reliable operation in both laboratory and harsh industrial settings. The system’s new power and operating-system management module, complete with eMMC storage and watchdog functionality, enables faster booting, remote updates, and improved resilience.

Already proven in real-world deployment, Red Pitaya boards are used across a broad spectrum of industrial and scientific applications, from aerospace testing to renewable energy systems and quantum measurement labs. Colorado-based LongPath Technologies has integrated the Red Pitaya STEMlab PRO Gen 2 into its laser-based methane detection network that monitors greenhouse-gas emissions across hundreds of square kilometers.

- With Gen 2, we’ve observed improvement in frequency stability compared to the original boards, along with lower harmonic noise on both ADCs and DACs. These improvements directly translate to cleaner signals, better detection of weak signals, and higher stability, says Colin Wargo, Senior Electrical Engineer at LongPath Technologies. 

LongPath’s system, based on Nobel Prize-winning dual-frequency-comb spectroscopy, demonstrates how compact, FPGA-enabled data-acquisition hardware can take precision laser physics from the lab to large-scale industrial deployment.

The STEMlab 125-14 Gen 2 series, comprising the STEMlab PRO Gen 2 and PRO Z7020 Gen 2, is now available across all configurations for immediate order through Red Pitaya’s online store and distributors such as DigiKey, Mouser, and Farnell. Each model maintains full backward compatibility while delivering measurable gains in analog isolation, synchronization, and signal quality.
