FASTX-UXGA BOARDS

INTRODUCTION

The FastX-UXGA frame grabber series is for users who anticipate a demand for extreme I/O requirements or higher bandwidth, complex image processing and real-time fast storage in a cost effective platform. The base Fast-UXGA, is a raw-length PCI board with two (four-muxed) UXGA analog conversion channels using Analog Device's AD9888. The front end data is formatted and preprocessed by a FPGA before being sent to the memory subsection, from zero to four PNX1702 processors before output. Finally, the Fast-UXGA interfaces to the host computer through a 4x PCIe interface for state-of-the-art data acquisition.
