Core Systems Inc. Announces Today that it has Won a Contract to Provide Complete Integrated 4U Rack Mount Systems

San Diego, CA, March 07, 2007 --(PR.com)-- Core Systems Inc. announces today that it has won a contract to provide complete integrated 4U rack mount systems using Core Systems CESDCX-10620 Dual Core Xeon SBC along with Core Systems SEBP19-16/2 backplane to house 8 dual channel digitizer capture boards which provides a tremendous combination of high speed and high resolution along with an extremely large memory capacity. The entire 512 MB memory may be used as a giant FIFO for acquiring data directly to either the SAB or PCI bus. Tests have shown that a very large FIFO memory is required to prevent data loss when performing continuous data streaming over the PCI bus.

The digitizer boards installed incorporates the advanced data transfers of up to 500 megabytes/second. This allows for the high-speed transfer of data to fast processor boards or other peripherals. The SAB also incorporates device control features for operating independent of the host PC bus.

The digitizer board is equipped with an interconnect port to allow multiple DAQ boards to be interconnected in a Master/Slave configuration. Up to three Slave DAQ boards may be operated with one Master. Master/Slave connections are via a ribbon cable that connects at the top of the board. In this configuration the clock and trigger signals from the Master drive the Slave boards so that data sampling on all boards occurs simultaneously.

External clock and trigger signals are provided via SMA connectors on the back bracket. Also provided is a user selectable digital output signal for synchronization purposes. Effectively, twenty-two internal clock frequencies may be selected, from 100 MHz down to 97.7 kHz in factors of 2 or from 62.5 MHz down 61.0 kHz in factors of 2. The PDA14 supports single shot, segmented, and pretrigger triggering modes.

Core Systems is a premier provider of complete integrated systems for the Industrial, Embedded, Military and Communications marketplaces. Core Systems also supplys a large line of off the self and custom 1U LCD display units. They design, manufacture and customize open system platforms to meet the demanding requirements of their customers' programs, using both standard and enhanced Commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) technology.
