New rugged, liquid-cooled ATR chassis
Elma Electronic Systems: Liquid-cooled ATR chassis Staying cool is not easy in many of today’s densely packaged embedded computing systems. To really get the heat out can sometimes call for some liquid refreshment. Elma Electronic Inc. has a new rugged 1 ATR tall, short enclosure with independent dual liquid-cooled side walls that of... Analog to digital … Part I
TEK Microsystems, Inc.: Pallene-V6 VME/VXS VME and VXS get into gear with the high-speed A/D Pallene-V6, from TEK Microsystems. The Pallene-V6 combines three Xilinx Virtex-6 FPGAs with Texas Instruments ADS54RF63 12-bit A/D converters, supporting eight channels at up to 550 MSps with sample accurate synchronization across multiple... Analog to digital … Part II
Pentek, Inc.: Model 71640 Analog signals can never be digitized too fast, it seems, based on the wave of A/D modules hitting the market these days. Accordingly, Pentek announced its fastest-ever data acquisition module for the popular Cobalt family. The Model 71640, in FMC form factor, provides a substantial jump i... Make a mesh of your topologies
Elma Electronic: TIC-FEP-VPX3b FPGAs are everywhere these days, doing nothing but getting faster and enabling new levels of signal processing and I/O flexibility. Designed for Digital Signal Processing (DSP), the versatile TIC-FEP-VPX3b front-end processing board from Elma Electronic is ideal for applications such as ra... VME64x rocks on anniversary of VMEbus
IOxOS Technologies SA: IPV_1102 VME64 single board computers are still showing up as new products, and they are more connected than ever. The IOxOS Technologies IPV_1102, based on Freescale’s PowerPC P2020 computing core and Xilinx Virtex-5T FPGA, is a great example. The IPV_1102 can extend its capabilities beyond... SBC with lots o’ I/O
North Atlantic Industries: 64EP3 Paper or plastic? Fries or chips? The options are sometimes overwhelming, as they might also seem to be with this single-slot SBC from North Atlantic Industries that offers plug-in modules for the processor subsystem as well as various I/O options. But when all stacked up with four modules... Two cores ... with more
Aitech Defense Systems: C870 and CM870 As Intel’s Core family of CPUs takes the civilian world by storm, the military is closer behind than ever before. Gone are the days of waiting two or more years for the rugged, embedded version. Take Aitech’s C870 (SBC) and CM870 (PMC/XMC carrier) boards, for instance. These si... Dual-core PPC: Choose PCIe or Serial RapidIO
Aitech Defense Systems: C110 Ah, choices. It’s good to have them. Paper or plastic? Fries? Serial RapidIO or PCIe? These are the choices available to designers of extremely rugged systems when specifying the single-slot C110 from Aitech. The 6U SBC is based upon VPX (VITA 46) with OpenVPX (VITA 65) profiles and... A PCIe-to-OpenVPX lifeline
PCI-SYSTEMS Inc: OpenVPX Conduction-cooled PCI Express Cable Link Board Routing all I/O off the backplane of a conduction-cooled board is well and good at the deployment stage, but it can be a nightmare during development. PCI-SYSTEMS, the company always innovating something new for VME and its ecosystem, has come up with a set of PCIe cables for OpenVPX. But... 3U VPX PowerQUICC SBC
Interface Concept: IC-PQ3-VPXa From the original Motorola QUICC to the modern Freescale PowerPC-based PowerQUICC, designers could be assured of one thing: maximum peripheral density in a low-power package. That’s the reason Interface Concept, a European provider of all kinds of open-standard small form factor hard... Mix-and-match I/O saves power, space
North Atlantic Industries: 67C3 Sure, everyone’s got a VPX SBC – but where do you go when you want high-density, single-slot synchro/resolver I/O? Why, North Atlantic Industries, of course. You’ll want to get your mitts on the 67C3, a modular 6U VPX motherboard that can be populated by up to 6 independe... Sixth time’s a charm
GE Intelligent Platforms, Inc.: SBC312 Dubbing their SBC312 3U VPX SBC the sixth member of the GE Intelligent Platforms VPX lineup, this version has on-paper specs of 4x the performance of earlier versions (as measured by the number of cores). Based upon the Freescale QorIQ 8-core P4080, this SBC delivers oh-so-much-more perfor... Itty-bitty cryo coolers
Laird Technologies: Cascade Series TEAs Ok, so “cryo cooler” is a bit of a stretch, but these enhanced Cascade Series Thermoelectric Assemblies (TEAs) from Laird Technologies are way cool. Literally. Boasting nearly double the cooling capacity versus single-stage Thermoelectric Modules (TEMs), these TEAs may eliminat... Up/downconversion goes mini
TiaLinx, Inc.: TLXAR60 and TLXAT60 modules British carmaker John Cooper and TiaLinx, Inc. might have shared a common bond: the ability to go “Mini.” Indeed, TiaLinx’s 2W V-band transmitter and receiver modules just might set their own mini trend as they facilitate customized Giga-band wireless link integration and... Licenses to fly
Data Device Corporation: USB dongle, node-locked, and network licensing MIL-STD-1553 and ARINC 429 are the de facto communications buses in avionics and other military applications, and Data Device Corporation (DDC) is regarded as a COTS market leader, providing the lion’s share of ICs supporting each bus. But avionics systems are not controlled by silic...
