PDC's space-qualified and field proven solutions are engineered for space’s extreme environmental requirements, while reducing space, weight, and power consumption, along with total cost of ownership.
Satellites & Space Systems
PDC’s core competencies and unique suite of capabilities for the production of custom solutions span every stage of development including electrical design, mechanical design, test engineering, process engineering, manufacturing, and product assurance. PDC is uniquely qualified to support a wide range of application requirements and technologies based upon our decades of experience in analog and digital microelectronics, magnetics, power supplies, and radiation mitigation technology.
Custom Solutions
The SB-365x series is a synchro conversion cPCI card that contains 3 channels of fully independent Synchro Resolver-to-Digital conversion and 6 channels of fully independent Digital-to-Synchro Resolver conversion on a single slot 6U size card. Un-populated D/S channels may be used as additional S/D channels for up to a total of 9 S/D channels.
The resolution and bandwidth are software programmable. Each synchro conversion channel has an independent signal and reference input. The inputs are solid state and non-isolated. For each channel the conversion process is implemented using PDC S/D converters (P/N RD-19231).
The card has six channels of Digital-to-Synchro conversion. For each channel the synchro conversion process is implemented using PDC D/S converters (P/N DRC-11522 hybrid). Each channel has an independent output and input reference. All reference input and outputs are transformer isolated. Unpopulated SIM channels can be used as additional API channels by using the wrap back test channels.
