Hardware
Hardware components include a data acquisition interface unit with sample-n-hold circuitry, the TMSI card cage capable of holding up to fourteen (14) TMSI bridge type sensor amplifier cards, or a combination of squib fire, frequency generator, and sensor amplifier cards.
Analog
Data Acquisition Interface
Provides physical terminations for analog signals to be input for A/D conversion or output from D/A converter as well as similar terminations and optical isolation for digital inputs and outputs from their sources and to their destinations, respectively.
Digital I/O
Monitors digital input data channels to record the state (low or high) for the input channels; output section provides a proper digital state (low or high) for output channels.
Signal Conditioning
This generally takes the form of amplification and filtering but ranges to integration, differentiation, signal averaging, and transfer function compensation.
Analog Output Interface
Servo Valve Controller
Output is from a Digital PID (Proportional Integrative Derivative) controller to define an error signal that is sent to a servo valve amplifier to provide valve driving current that is proportional to the error signal.
