The PCIe NTDS Serial dual channel card connects computers with PCI Express (PCIe) slots to military computers and peripherals with MIL-STD-1397C Type D or E interfaces. The card is compatible with x4, x8 or x16 PCIe slots, allowing it to be used in the widest range of servers and workstations. NTDS cable connections are backward compatible with IXI’s other Serial boards, allowing an easy upgrade without the need to change cabling. Supporting two full NTDS channels on a single card satisfies the need for lowering SWAP and increasing channel density. IXI’s NTDS line of cards are easy to program and offer a variety of input and output modes to support any NTDS protocol. Hardware-independent input and output channels allow the NTDS Interface to perform input and output (full duplex) operations on both channels simultaneously. PCIe NTDS boards can be used for passive tap applications as well as normal NTDS I/O. An on-board time stamp generator tags individual input words with 125 ns resolution. Time stamping is software-selectable and can be used with active or passive communications. All boards in the NTDS Interface family are software compatible making it easy to mix parallel and serial NTDS boards in the same system as well as allowing transparent migration of applications between PCIe, PCI, PMC, cPCI, and PC/104-Plus versions. Device driver software is available for the most commonly-used operating systems. For maintenance and reliability, an internal loop-back path allows the NTDS Interface to be tested without disconnecting cables. PCIe NTDS Serial Type E boards fully implement all the System Integrity Features (SIF) specified in MIL-STD- 1397C. The PCIe NTDS can be updated in the field by reconfiguring its Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) logic to add features or compensate for non-compliant interfaces. Using FPGA technology reduces component obsolescence, enabling the PCIe NTDS to be deployed and supported for years to come.
