FMC transceiver for complex radar, EW, and ELINT applications introduced by Mercury
CHELMSFORD, Mass., 13 Aug. 2013. Mercury Systems Inc. in Chelmsford, Mass., is introducing the DCM-2R2300-2T2300-OVPX FPGA mezzanine card (FMC) transceiver for complex electronic warfare (EW), electronic intelligence (ELINT) and radar applications.
The embedded computing transceiver delivers coherent operation, with more than 1 GHz of full instantaneous bandwidth and exceptional fidelity, and provides multichannel, high-resolution, synchronized, and coherent signal processing.
The transceiver is a configurable building block within the sensor chain, capable of capturing signals instantaneously over a 1 GHz range, with two, high-resolution 12-bit input and two 14-bit output channels.
The device delivers full wave-form capture through the whole frequency range, Mercury officials say. When paired with a Mercury FPGA carrier, the analog FMC provides a digital processing interface for the high fidelity data conversion to enable high bandwidth, low-latency switched fabric communication with other subsystem resources.
The transceiver functional blocks are in Mercury's EchoCore IP suite that delivers streaming data algorithms to encompass signal selection and filtering functions. EchoCore standardizes cores with basic DSP/FPGA functionality and testing, reducing development time, while increasing solution quality, company officials say.
Modules may be integrated forming coherent, synchronized subsystems using the EchoCore algorithm processing library. For more information contact Mercury online at www.mrcy.com.
