Hardware
The DS1104 R&D Controller Board is a standard board that can be
plugged into a PCI slot of a PC. The DS1104 is specifically designed for
the development of high-speed multivariable digital controllers and
real-time simulations in various fields. It is a complete real-time control
system based on a 603 PowerPC floating-point processor running at
250 MHz. For advanced I/O purposes, the board includes a slave-DSP
subsystem based on the TMS320F240 DSP microcontroller.
For purposes of rapid control prototyping (RCP), specific interface
connectors and connector panels (see below) provide easy access to all
input and output signals of the board. Thus, the DS1104 R&D
Controller Board is the ideal hardware for the dSPACE Prototyper
development system for cost-sensitive RCP applications.
To demonstrate control design and implementation, demo equipment
(VCFP Simulator) is available for the DS1104.
Easy access to input and
output signals
Using an adapter cable you can link your external signals from the
100-pin I/O connector on the board to Sub-D connectors. So you can
make a high-density connection between the board and the devices of
your application via Sub-D connectors.
Specific interface connector panels provide easy access to all the input
and output signals of the DS1104 R&D Controller Board.

The CP1104 C onnector P anel provides easy-to-use connections
between the DS1104 R&D Controller Board and devices to be
connected to it. Devices can be individually connected,
disconnected or interchanged without soldering via BNC
connectors and Sub-D connectors. This simplifies system
construction, testing and troubleshooting.

In addition to the CP1104, the CLP1104 C onnector/ L ED Combi
P anel provides an array of LEDs indicating the states of the digital
signals.
