Description
The GE Fanuc / ICS ICS-554 4-Channel, 14-Bit, 105 MHz PMC ADC Board with Down-Converters and Xilinx FPGA consists of four 14-bit
ADCs sampling synchronously at frequencies up
to 105 MHz. Simultaneous down conversion of up
to 16 arbitrary signal bands (e.g.16 FDM signals)
is provided by four optional Graychip GC4016
quad digital down - converters (DDC). ICS-554A
and ICS-554B include a 1 million gate Xilinx FPGA,
while ICS-554D and ICS-554E each include a
3 million gate device. These FPGAs are almost
entirely available for user applications, providing
a powerful signal processing capability.
The ICS-554 also offers 1 MByte of onboard
memory storage organized as two
independent 0.5 MByte FIFOs, thus providing
for simultaneous wideband and narrowband
operation. The PCI interface is PCI 2.2
compatible, providing a fast 64-bit, 66 MHz DMA
interface. All 64 Pn4 User I/O signals are routed
to the FPGA and will support LVTTL signaling.
LVDS signaling is also supported on ICS-554D
and ICS-554E only.
The ICS-554 supports coherent sampling on single channels (from
trigger interval to trigger interval), across multiple
channels on the same board or across multiple
boards. The latter capability provides for beam
forming and time-of-arrival applications.
The ICS-554 can be used with any type of carrier
card that will accept a PMC module, including
VME, PCI and CompactPCI. When used with an
appropriate DSP/processor carrier card, the ICS-
554 offers a very powerful single slot solution for
software radio applications
