Aitech Defense Systems Inc, has released the A175, a rugged, self-contained, EMC/EMI-protected Remote Interface Unit (RIU) I/O expansion subsystem that provides dynamic mission profile reprogramming.
Rugged unit optimizes SWaP for critical, mobile applications
Provides dynamic mission profile reprogramming.
Uses platform location monitoring built into the on-board FPGA[] to recognize its physical location within the platform and communicate with the main mission computer, allowing the unit to alter its functionality âÄòon-the-flyâÄô or at power up.
classified as a data concentrator unit (DCU), the A175 optimizes SWaP (size, weight and power) with dimensions of only 7âÄ? x 7âÄ? x 1.3âÄ? and a weight of less than 2.5 lbs (the approximate weight of one 6U conduction-cooledVMEbus board), while drawing only 10 W, or about the same as a standard household incandescent nightlight.
A large variety of I/O interfaces and large user-programmable FPGA for the application OFP (Operational Flight Program)
Useful in highly data centric environments such as a remote interface data concentrator or engine and power train data monitor as well as in vehicle prognostics data collection and condition based maintenance (CBM).
Silicon, software, and strategies for embedded devices
Embedded Computing Design magazine is the resource for engineers, architects, and decision makers involved with embedded devices. Topics explored span silicon, software, and strategies for designing and connecting with small devices in mobile, automotive, home, industrial, and medical applications. Departments include Deep Green discussing the latest in energy efficient, low power designs and applications. Content is available in print, E-letter, E-cast, white papers, video, RSS, social networks, and more. Subscriptions are free of charge.
