Data acquisition package is self-contained

A high performance data acquisition package is a self contained programmable data acquisition and processing system and can be used stand alone or connected to a PC.

Kane Computing are now selling the Hunt Engineering's RTG001 FPGA based high performance data acquisition package offering a Xilinx XC2V1500-6 FPGA, dual 210MHz, 12 bit ADCs and dual 160MHz, 16 bit ADCs.

The RTG001 is a self contained programmable data acquisition and processing system.

It can be used stand alone or connected to a PC via the USB 2.0 connection.

The fast A/D and D/A channels are directly connected to the user programmable FPGA, allowing data to be processed by a user FPGA program.

The FPGA can be used to perform digital processing between the analogue inputs and outputs, or the data can be passed to and from a PC using the USB 2.0 connection and provided software.

The USB connection is supported via Host-API software.

This allows software applications and tools on the Host PC to access the hardware using a consistent software interface without the need to understand or program the hardware or USB directly.

The FPGA program can be loaded over the USB connection using a software tool that directly accepts the output from development tools for the Xilinx FPGA.

Alternatively a Xilinx JTAG cable (Parallel or USB) can be used to load the FPGA and or program the on board configuration PROM.

The system is delivered ready to go with a power supply, USB cable, I/O cables and a CD with full documentation, software tools and examples.

Kane Computing also supply FPGA development tools such as Xilinx Foundation ISE and JTAG emulators.

* About Kane Computing - KCL has been providing Image Processing, DSP and high performance computing products for use in industry, education and research since 1987.

KCL started life as Sension Advanced Computing, designing, manufacturing and supplying parallel processing products based around the Inmos transputer.

In 1995 it became part of Kane International and subsequently changed its name to Kane Computing.

In October 2001 Kane Computing became an independent Company.

KCL is a member of TI (Texas Instruments) third party network and is now regarded as the primary source of fully supported development tools for Texas Instruments series of DSPs in the United Kingdom.

KCL provides a whole range of products based around Texas Instrument's TMS320 range of DSP's.

This includes starter kits, development systems, application boards and emulators.

KCL has a policy of continual improvement and operates its business in accordance with the requirements of ISO9001:2000.
