HSTSS-DAC Custom ICS Impact On 2.75' Missile Telemetry

摘要

We analyze several telemetry data acquisition systems to gage the system impact of denser custom ICs being developed under the HSTSS-DAC project. Our baseline is a telemetry system recently developed at Eglin AFB to support 16 analog input channels, signal conditioning and encoding for Pulse Code Modulation (PCM) using Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) ICs. The data acquisition protion of the system occupies three double-sided, round circuit cards, each 2.3" in diameter. A comarable system using HSTSS-DAC custom Ics will occupy only one sieer of one card -A factor of six-volume reduction compared to the COTS approach.
