PC104C54
The PC104C54 is a new PC/104 based DSP board
featuring the TMS320C5416.
Utilizing four AIO format daughter boards, the PC104C54 supports analog
and digital I/O. The PC104C54 can be a slave board on the PC/104 bus or,
by booting from the on board flash memory, the PC104C54 can run standalone.
The firmware is updated from the host processor or via the communication
ports. The PC/104 interface emulates a very high speed 16C550 UART to allow
the use of existing serial port drivers under any operating system which
runs on a standard PC. Or the PC104C54 can become a bus master to replace
your existing CPU and control devices on the PC/104 bus.
Applications
The PC104C54 has many applications in signal processing and embedded
control. It allows the use of a small PC/104 system in place
of a full sized rack mount PC. Operating alone or combined with a high performance
PC/104 CPU the result is a data processing system of unmatched size and performance.
- Industrial Control - Multiple inputs and outputs with high speed
control.
- Vibration Analysis - Quad analog inputs and outputs plus high speed
(10 Mbps) TDM bus allows multiple PC104C54 boards to be used together to
support phased array applications.
- Voice Processing - Multiple channels of high or low bit rate vocoders
on a single board: CELP, LD-CELP, ACELP, MELP, VSELP, ADPCM...
- Digital Receiver - quad FM demodulators with near 96 dB of dynamic
range.
- Modem Demodulation - QPSK or FSK demodulators.
- Real Time Data Acquisition - 96 KSPS on 16 bit analog inputs and
outputs.
- Multi-channel Sonar Processing- Octal channel 16 bit analog I/O
supports beamforming and direction finding.
- Data Encryption/Decryption - DES, Triple DES and others.
- Multiprocessor Applications - TDM Serial Bus allows up to 8 boards
to be connected.
- Reconfigurable processing - On board FPGA allows special applications
to be developed in hardware.
Features
The high density construction of the PC104C54 supports many I/O and processing
features. Surface mounted components and dual sided mounting provides an
unusually high density of capabilities.

AIO Daughter Modules
AIO modules are small (1.4" x 2.0") modules which are used on our DSP
boards to provide multiple types of IO expansion. While still meeting the
mechanical outline requirements for a single PC/104 board, the AIO modules
may be used with our DSP boards in many combinations to provide you with
the exact IO capabilities you need for your application.
- AIOaudio - Octal 16 bit ADC and
DAC up to 96 KSPS with analog filtering
- AIO2wire - Telephony 2 wire interface with DAA and protection
Soon to be Announced
- Dual 16 bit ADC and DAC up to 200 KSPS with analog filtering
- High speed ADC and DAC up to 10 MSPS with analog filtering
- Quad Channel Digital Down Converter Module (Digital Receiver)
- T1/E1 Interface Module
- ISDN Interface Module
- USB 1.1/2.0 Interface Module
- Multi channel digital I/O
