Processors in server-class workstations have become powerful enough to contend for some of the most demanding real-time embedded applications. Integrating these cost-effective platforms with the open-architecture board-level products required for government and military applications poses significant challenges for system designers.

Adequate cooling of these power-hungry boards to assure reliable system operation is a critical need. Cooling strategies discussed in this article include:

  • Workstation Benefits & Limitations
  • Cooling by Design
  • Effective Fan Strategies
  • Card Relocation

Cooling

Ten temperature sensors distributed around the Pentek Model 71760 XMC module to ensure valid monitoring of cooling effectiveness.






New OpenVPX

  • Rugged, conduction-cooled OpenVPX boards with Xilinx FPGAs for demanding military and avionics applications
  • Readily integrate custom FPGA IP
  • 15 Watt power savings
  • 20% reduction in costs





Model 8266

The Model 8266 resolves the typical hardware and software compatibility obstacles inherent in new PC development platforms. All hardware is installed in appropriate slots with proper cabling, power and cooling strategies, and optimized BIOS.

Model 53662From radar applications to telecommunications and signal intelligence, communications solutions must be able to handle high-channel count applications where wide decimations and a large spectrum of frequency ranges can be covered. In this video, Pentek's Robert Sgandurra explains how these challenging problems can be overcome and explores the Model 53662 4-Channel 200 MHz A/D with 32-Channel DDC with Virtex-6 FPGA VPX Board.


Model 78621Pentek vice president and co-founder Rodger Hosking demonstrates how the Model 78621, 3-Channel 200 MHz A/D with DDC and 2-Channel 800 MHz D/A with DUC, Virtex-6 FPGA - PCle board provides complete software radio transceiver solutions and delivers excellent dynamic range for advanced military radios, radar, beamforming and communication applications.
