Sparrow™ PMC Serial ATDS Conduction Cooled

 


Sparrow™ PMC Serial ATDS Conduction Cooled

The most compact, powerful and reliable serial ATDS interface available today

Sparrow achieves superior levels of serial ATDS performance in COTS systems

  • Easy to Program
  • Reliable and Flexible
  • Multiple Input and Output Modes
  • Powerful Feature Set


The Conduction Cooled Sparrow PMC Serial ATDS module installs in an industry standard PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) slot to provide an interface to a Tactical Digital Information link (TADIL) A serial channel (MIL-STD-188-203-1A, Appendix D2). The Conduction Cooled Sparrow is easy to program and offers a variety of input and output modes to support all ATDS protocols. A software-enabled embedded time stamp generator tags input words with 125ns resolution. The time stamp clock can be synchronized between multiple boards by using a small interconnect cable, and can be driven by an external clock source.

Reliability and flexibility are designed into the Conduction Cooled Sparrow. An internal loopback path allows the Conduction Cooled Sparrow to be tested without disconnecting cables, Field upgrades are easily done by running a simple utility to update the onboard Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA).

The interface comes standard with a driver for any one of the supported operating systems, an excellent documentation package and sample C language code that can be freely used in application software.

A powerful feature set combined with the high performance PCI bus and industry standard PMC form factor allow the Conduction Cooled Sparrow to achieve superior levels of ATDS performance in COTS systems. For the most compact, powerful, and reliable serial ATDS interface available today, choose the Conduction Cooled Sparrow PMC Serial ATDS module from Sabtech.
