It provides real-time data acquisition, bit synchronization, frame synchronization, and decommutation functions for telemetry applications. The card integrates with host computer systems via PCIe interface to process incoming PCM data streams, extract parameters, and make them available for analysis. Features include programmable bit rates, multiple input signal formats (TTL, RS-422, etc.), IRIG-106 compliance, and support for various PCM codes (NRZ-L, Bi-Phase, etc.). Commonly used in aerospace, defense, and test range environments for telemetry processing and data acquisition. ## Function Multi-function PCM decommutator providing telemetry processing capabilities via PCIe interface. Decommutates, processes, and decodes PCM data streams with support for various frame formats, bit rates, and code types. Features real-time data acquisition, time stamping, frame synchronization, and data distribution. Offers programmable bit synchronization, frame pattern recognition, and subframe synchronization. Processes multiple PCM streams simultaneously while performing error detection and correction. Enables integration with data acquisition systems, signal analyzers, and telemetry processing software. ## Platform PCIe expansion card interface designed for integration into desktop workstations and rackmount computer systems requiring high-speed data processing capabilities. Operates within standard PCIe slot configurations supporting x1 x4 x8 or x16 lane implementations. Compatible with Windows and Linux operating systems through dedicated device drivers. Interfaces with external RF signal sources via coaxial connectors and provides digital data output through PCIe bus architecture. Designed for laboratory test environments flight test data acquisition systems and ground support equipment requiring real-time PCM telemetry stream processing and decommutation functionality. ## Application Supports real-time decommutation of telemetry data streams in aerospace testing and space communication, suitable for processing and analyzing telemetry data from satellites, aircraft, and ground stations. Integrates into PCIe platforms for high-speed data handling, offering compatibility with telemetry encoders, bit synchronizers, and other DSP modules, facilitating efficient post-processing and analysis of received data for monitoring and control applications across multiple test and telemetry environments. ## Accessories PCIe x8 edge connector for host interface; Two SMA female coaxial connectors for PCM input; One BNC female coaxial connector for IRIG-B/1PPS time synchronization input; One DB9 female D-subminiature connector for serial data/control. ## Interface PCIe x4 edge connector for host computer interface, 2x SMA female connectors for PCM clock and data input signals, DB-9 male connector for RS-232 control and status monitoring, 2x SMB connectors for external clock reference input and trigger output, 4-pin Molex power connector for auxiliary +12V power, front panel LED indicators for power, link status, and data activity, internal 40-pin IDE header for optional daughter card expansion modules, supports PCM bit rates up to 50 Mbps, requires PCIe-compatible motherboard or backplane with available x4 or larger slot ## Images - - - -
