RCS/ISAR Data Acquisition Interface
8122692 (9634-10)
The Data Acquisition Interface is a compact module designed to
be installed into one of the slots on the RTM of the Radar
Processor/Display. This module receives the I- and Q-channel
echo signals of the radar and converts them to digital format. It
also receives the PRF and synchronization signals as well as
azimuth information from the Radar Synchronizer / Antenna
Controller. All these signals are then routed to the RTM for digital
signal processing. A digital output allows to route the
synchronization signal to another module.
The Data Acquisition Interface has two BNC-connector analog
inputs to receive the I- and Q-channel echo signals. It has two
BNC-connector digital inputs where the PRF and synchronization signals are injected and one BNC-connector
digital output to route the synchronization signal to another module. A DB15 connector is provided as a digital
input for the azimuth information. All these inputs are protected from misconnections within the system. Test
points are available on the module's front panel to observe the input signals using a conventional oscilloscope.
DC power is automatically supplied to the RCS/ISAR Data Acquisition Interface when it is installed into the RTM.

Radar Analog/Digital Output Interface
8093433 (9635-00)
The Analog/Digital Output Interface is a compact module
designed to be installed into one of the slots on the RTM of the
Radar Processor/Display. This module provides analog and
digital output signals generated by the RTM. The nature of the
signals generated depends on the type of radar processing that
the RTM performs.
The Analog/Digital Output Interface has four BNC-connector
analog outputs and four BNC-connector digital outputs. All these
outputs are protected from misconnections within the system.
Test points are available on the module's front panel to observe
the output signals using a conventional oscilloscope.
DC power is automatically supplied to the Analog/Digital Output
Interface when it is installed into the RTM.
