LVDS interface board allows data to travel over greater lengths of copper wire while maintaining a clear and consistent data stream between the data source and recording device.

Conduant Corporation has announced the LVDS-16, a low voltage differential signalling (LVDS) mezzanine board for its StreamStor Amazon high speed recording system The LVDS interface board allows data to travel over greater lengths of copper wire while maintaining a clear and consistent data stream between the data source and recording device

The LVDS mezzanine board provides 16bit, 200MHz data recording and playback interfaces for Conduant's premier StreamStor Amazon SATA disk controllers.

It also provides improved data integrity and longer cable lengths when compared with typical TTL parallel interfaces.

The LVDS-16 can directly connect to customer FPGA devices over copper cables for data recording applications.

It can serve as an alternative to the FPDP II interface already available for the StreamStor Amazon recorder at sustained datarates of 400Mbyte/s.

"Conduant continues to provide reliable high performance recording with its LVDS interface", said Ken Owens, CEO of Conduant.

"The introduction of the new mezzanine board opens up numerous applications requiring greater distance between the source and data capture point".

"By providing direct digital interfaces on its StreamStor high speed recording products, Conduant has eliminated all potential bottlenecks that can impact data recording applications".

"The addition of the LVDS interface not only expands the Amazon product line, but it establishes it as the premier high speed recording solution".

The StreamStor Amazon SATA Disk Controller provides a powerful and flexible data interface system based on Conduant's unique modular mezzanine architecture.

It is the only disk solution that allows a choice from a variety of COTS I/O options and utilises a wide range of popular interface options such as FPDP, Serial FPDP, FPDP II, LVDS or the PCIbus for direct-to-disk recording.

StreamStor Amazon features over 400Mbyte/s of sustained performance.

In addition, it includes unique features such as data forking, and circular buffer recording for today's most demanding applications.
