Q8J Low SWaP Payload Data Storage & Interface Computer
The Data Storage and Interface Board (DSIB), is designed to maximize the Q8J's advanced capabilities and extensive I/O. To meet the needs of demanding applications that handle large amounts of data from multiple sources, DSIB provides a wide range of high-speed and standard interfaces and extensive mass memory storage.
The Q8 DSIB card offers the following key features:
STORAGE:
- 2 Terabytes of bulk storage
- 2x 1 Terabyte SSDs
- > 300 MB/s sustained write
INTERFACES:
- 4x GigE (1Gbps) ports with magnetics
- 2x CAN bus controllers (one controller capable of switching between two transceivers)
- 7x RS422 ports, 1x RS485
- 1x RS422/RS485 (full or half-duplex, factory-configured)
- 16x LVDS outputs
- 12x LVDS inputs
- 4x factory-configured LVDS I/Os
Power:
- Input voltage: 6 to 12.6 V
(12 V nominal) - 12 W typical with all interfaces active and 1 SSD
FORM FACTOR
- 90 mm x 190 mm x 25 mm,
260 g (DSIB + Q8J + mounting HW)
ENVIRONMENTAL:
- Operating temperature: -40 to +60C
MASS DATA STORAGE
Offering two 1 TB SSD, the Q8J DSIB is equipped to store the large amounts generated by high-speed sensors. Not only that, but high-performance processors and extensive FPGA fabric allow for onboard processing of data streaming to and from SSDs.
