PMC-FPDP
The PMC-FPDP is designed to provide high-speed data acquisition in VME or CompactPCI single board computers (SBCs) used for digital signal processing (DSP). The board is available in air-cooled (SA) as well as rugged air-cooled (RA) and rugged conduction-cooled (RC) versions, making it ideal for both harsh-environment and commercial use. The card is currently used as a sensor acquisition interface in a digital signal and data processing system for sonars. In such an application, the data sent by the sensor front-end device is pre-processed by a PowerPC G4-powered computing node through the use of the 2eSST-enhanced VMEbus or a crossbar switch and then broadcast to another set of other processing cards.
