Overview

Designed for use in communications, radar and test and measurement applications in harsh environments, the ICS-8554D combines the best in ADC and DSP technologies to provide the ultimate advantage in size, performance and cost. Ideal applications for the product include military communications, signal intelligence, smart antenna, radar beam forming, wireless test and measurement and satellite ground stations.

The ICS-8554D DC-coupled digital receiver includes four 14-bit ADCs that sample synchronously at frequencies up to 105 MHz, two Graychip GC4016 quad digital down-conversion (DDC) modules for simultaneous down conversion of up to 8 arbitrary signal bands(e.g., 8 FDM signals) and a 3 Mgate Xilinx FPGA, providing a powerful capability for baseband signal processing. It offers two large FIFO buffers decoupled to support simulataneous wide and narrow band operation and a fast PCI 2.2 64-bit, 66 MHz DMA interface.

The ICS-8554D is available in five ruggedization levels conforming to the IEEE 1101.2-1992 standard, including both convection- and conduction-cooled options, and can be used with any suitable type of carrier card that will accept a PMC module, including VME, PCI and CompactPCI types. Level 4 and 5 conduction-cooled versions must be used with an appropriate conduction cooled carrier such as those made by Abaco Systems in VMEbus and CompactPCI formats.

Replacement product is the ICS-1555 (Levels 1-3 only)
