Opticlink is a novel system for transmitting digital video over long distances (up to 10km) using fibre optic cables.
PCMCIA JTAG emulator endorsed by TI DSP
Kane Computing claims that its Predator PCMCIA JTAG emulator was used by Texas Instruments to communicate with the first TMS320C6416 DSPs to come out of its fab, and it all worked first time.
The common digital video interface is RS644 (optionally RS422) compatible, with up to 40bit data.
A dual channel mode is offered to acquire two independent 16bit video input streams.
The computer bus interface is electrically compatible with PCI 2.2 and mechanically with standard PCI.
The bus interface is PCI-X compatible (64bit/66MHz), resulting in an extreme transfer rate of 528Mbyte/s on the computer bus.
The Leonardo is equipped with a state of the art Xilinx FPGA, offering real-time processing of the video data, such as contrast stretching in grey value domain with LUT, RGB mosaic colour restoration and random 2D convolution filters.
The video data are stored in a large on board memory.
The maximum image is 64 x 64Kpixel.
Customers can choose the Xilinx Virtex-E XCV100E or the XCV300E FPGAs and memory size of 128 or 256Mbyte of SDRAM.
The onboard 133MHz bus supports throughput up to 1Gbyte/s and PCIbus transfer rates up to 528Mbyte/s (480Mbyte/s sustained).
In addition to the commercial version (0 to +70C) there is an industrial version that operates in a temperature range of -40 to +85C.
Arvoo also manufactures a CameraLink version of the Leonardo plus a wide range of analogue and digital (SDI) framegrabbers and digital video optical convertors. Request a free brochure from Kane Computing ...
