Hawke-2P™ VME NTDS Parallel Type A, B, C and H
A new generation of NTDS parallel interfaces for the VMEbus
Versatile single board computer with parallel NTDS I/O channel
- Single Board Computer with NTDS I/O Channel
- On-board Monitor and Debugger
- EPROM for User Applications
The Parallel Hawke family of VME NTDS boards covers a range of powerful and versatile 32-bit interfaces between the VMEbus and NTDS or NATO STANAG 4146 input/output devices. Front panel NTDS cable pin-outs on all parallel Hawke NTDS boards are identical, allowing easy interchangeability of cables and accessories.
The Hawke-2P A, B, C and H is a new generation of NTDS parallel interfaces for the VMEbus. The Hawke-2P is a form, fit and functional replacement for earlier models, such as the Hawke-X and C-Hawke. The new Hawke-2P uses surface mount technology, a rotary switch for address select, field modifiable flash EPROM, board stiffeners to enhance ruggedness, and access to front panel mounted connectors for full 32-bit NTDS I/O. The Hawke-2P also features selectable 16- or 32-bit NTDS I/O access through the VMEbus P2 connector. A paddleboard mounted on the rear of the VMEbus's P2 connector converts to the identical NTDS cable pin-outs found on the front of the board. The Hawke-2P has short circuit protected tri-state drivers, differential receivers, front panel LEDs for all NTDS handshake lines, slow rate control, and is user-selectable for NTDS Types A (slow), B (fast), C (ANEW) or H (high throughput parallel) I/O.

Hawke-2P VME NTDS Parallel Type A, B, C and H
Interface Features
- On-board MC68020 CPU executes system firmware, built in monitor software, built in assembler/disassembler/debugger, and also supports execution of user code contained in an EPROM (installed in the user EPROM socket) or downloaded over the VMEbus into the on-board RAM.
- 512KB of on-board RAM is available for NTDS I/O buffers, system and user program & data storage, and is also accessible over the VMEbus.
- Uses an industry standard VMEbus Interface Controller (VIC) for 100% VMEbus compatibility.
- Operates as an A32/A24/A16:D32/D16/D8 bus master and A32/A24:D32/D16/D8 or A16/D8 slave.
- Supports high speed 32-bit block mode VME transfer.
- Up to 16 Hawke boards may be used in a single VMEbus system.
- Built-in Test (BIT) executed on power up or reset.
- Front panel LEDs for Reset, Bus Error, User, Halt, Test and Watchdog, as well as for the NTDS handshakes.
- User EPROM socket is available (supporting up to 1MB of user programs) for installing user code which can be executed on power-up, or initiated via software accesses over the VMEbus.
NTDS Features
- MIL-STD-1397C type A, B, C and H compatible
- Supports transfers at MIL-STD-1397C maximum rate
- True full-duplex operation

- Differential receivers and single-ended drivers (per NTDS spec.)
- Software (or hardware) configurable for type A, B, C and H
- Software configurable for 8-, 16-, or 32-bit transfers
- Built-in menu-driven system monitor provides easy control of NTDS operations (without requiring the development of user software) for quick checkout and test of NTDS cables and communications.
