DY-4 SPMC-704-000 Dual Independent Graphics Input/Output PMC

PMC-704 is a PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) form factor, ruggedized, high-performance, feature rich Graphics PMC. This IEEE 1386.1 Graphics PMC will provide a platform for customers to design, develop and deploy high-performance graphics sub-systems capable of supporting synthetic graphics and video overlay output as well as analog and digital capture. With support for both legacy and new video interfaces, PMC-704 is an ideal solution for both new and retrofit ground, naval and avionics platforms.

PMC-704 and PMC-706 are the first rugged COTS PMCs to make use of the AMD (ATI) Radeon Mobility 9000 (M9) Visual Processing Unit (VPU). By incorporating the ATI M9 graphics controller, we are able to leverage AMD's extensive experience in developing and producing graphics controllers for the embedded, mobile and desktop markets. The M9 features integrated memory, low power optimizations, integrated video input and output, advanced de-interlacing hardware and 2D/3D/Video acceleration.

The PMC-704 combines the M9’s feature/integration mix with our proven ability to produce high-performance rugged graphics products interfacing to today’s emerging and established standards in Defense and Aerospace display/ sensor systems.

The PMC-704 is targeted at applications requiring highspeed presentation of synthetic graphics where the output may optionally be required to be overlaid with captured video. PMC-704 can output to up to two independent digital/analog displays and accept up to two independent video inputs. Software support is provided through our Graphics Software Suite which includes a full embeddable X11 server, OpenGL, and an extensive video capture library. This is offered for multiple RTOS environments and is optimized to provide maximum performance and reliability.

Through the onboard Video Capture and Format (VCF) module, PMC-704 can accommodate many video input and output formats often found in retrofit environments. Nonstandard video formats and synchronization timing are all handled through the onboard VCF.

From head down displays, to target-and-acquisition displays, to moving map displays, to helmet mounted displays, our graphics PMC’s, Imaging Platforms and Graphics Software Suite are the ideal graphics foundation for today’s demanding defense & aerospace graphics and imaging platforms.
