The CP3000 Series are Single Slot 3U size Compact PCI (cPCI) compatable Synchro / Resolver input cards.
These cards are ideally suited for commercial, industrial and COTS military concerns using a rugged cPCI bus compatible computer in typical applications as dynamic pan and tilt camera stabilization, antenna and/or radar platforms and targetting applications that require a simple means of accurate stabilization in addition to mulltiple axis’ of absolute position feedback for ancilliaries.
The cPCI-A74 provides up to 2 channels of dynamic Synchro or Resolver Control Transformer functions, plus up to 8 channels of Synchro or Resolver inputs,and an optional high efficiency programmable reference supply source for exciting various synchro/resolver sensors.
Optionally up to 4 channels of input with up to 4 auxillary reference supply sources is available. Both industrial and COTS military grade (extended) temperature range versions are available.
100% Transformer Isolation is provided for all AC I/O, eliminating concerns for ground-loops, ground interjected (intermittent and ghostly) field noise, inductive surges, differing potentials, and high voltage field transients from effecting the card itself, the sensitive cPCI bus backplane and any other device or system sharing these signals.
Independent Isolation is provided for each channel to eliminate any common returns or ground loops. Because there is no connection to ground or need for common connections or I/O circuit loops; the user has increased protection against lightning in that the field sensor I/O does not provide a ground reference of attraction.
The input channel Syncro / Resolver Input Channels are supplied with internal mirror I/O that is used toexcersize input circuitry functionality to provide continuous and comprehensive self testing that operates quietly in the backround without any user programming or intervention required.
Built-in-Test that includes loss of signal, loss of reference, and loss of closed loop tracking report.
