TEWS Technologies introduces high-density, 16-bit D-A PMC module

TEWS Technologies in Halstenbek, Germany, is introducing the TPMC553 standard single-wide 32-bit PCI mezzanine card (PMC) module that provides 32 or 16 channels of 16-bit analog outputs for defense, aerospace, industrial, and transportation applications. Signals are accessible through a HD68 SCSI 3-type front I/O connector. The software-selectable output voltage ranges are 0-5, 0-10, 0-10.8, ±5, ±10, or ±10.8 volts. The output voltage range can be individually set per channel. The conversion time is typ. 10 microseconds. The double-buffered D-A converters allow simultaneous update of all channels for simulation applications. Additionally, a sequencer on the TPMC553 allows the periodic updating of enabled channels. Each TPMC553 is factory calibrated, with calibration information stored in a serial EEPROM on each PMC module. The TPMC553 operates in temperatures from -40 to 85 degrees Celsius.
