Simi Valley, CA – June 24, 2008 — Andalé (pronounced on-duh-lay) is a powerful data logging system which directly controls an NTFS disk subsystem to support gap-free storage or playback of analog or digital signals acquired using the Innovative X-series XMC modules. The including logging software moves data in real-time between the analog or digital I/O peripherals on any Innovative XMC module to/from dedicated SATA drives with minimal intervention from application software or Windows.
A dedicated PCI Express SATA RAID controller interfaces to conventional hard disk drives supporting guaranteed data flow rates of 700 MB/s, sustained. File sizes are limited only by the amount of disk storage available. 2.4 terabytes of storage are available in the standard configuration; An optional 8 TB configuration is available and even larger storage is supported via external JBOD enclosures.
A multitude of analog/digital I/O interfaces are available through optional XMC modules. One X5-series module or up to three X3-series modules may be installed into the chassis
Choice of the following intelligent XMC modules with Virtex 5 or Spartan3a FPGAs
X5-400M – 400 MSPS, 14-bit A/D (x2) 500 MSPS 16-bit D/A (x2) 1GB DDR2 DRAM
X5-210M – 250 MSPS, 14-bit A/D (x4) 512MB DDR2 DRAM
X3-10M – 25 MSPS 16-bit A/D (simultaneously sampling (x8)
X3-25M – 105 MSPS 16-bit A/D (x2) 50 MSPS 16-bit D/A (x2) X3-SDF – 20 MHz 24-bit A/D (x4)
X3-Servo – 250 kHz 16-bit A/D (x6) 1MSPS 16-bit D/A (x6) X3-SD – 216 kHz 16 bit A/D (x16)
X3-A4D4 – 4 MSPS 16-bit A/D (x4) 50 MSPS 16-bit D/A (x4) X3-DIO – 64 bits 66 MHz LVDS
The turnkey application software provided with Andalé supports the ability to start and stop recording in response to software commands or external signals, log up to a specified file size and to analyze data stored in standard Windows NTFS files for post-processing, meeting the most common system requirements without the need for software modification or customization.
Alternately, C/C++-savvy end-users can build a custom data logger/player application in short-order using the supplied Andalé support libraries which are compatible with Borland C++ Builder, Borland Development Studio 2006/2007, Microsoft Visual C++, C++ .NET 2005 & 2008.
The Andalé Data Recording System combines the simple yet powerful Andalé software, a dedicated, ultra-performance SATA/SAS hard disk /controller and the Malibu Development Environment. The Malibu libraries provide full-featured support for all XMC module features, allowing users to customize the turnkey data logger source code or to create an entirely custom data recording or playback software application. Malibu has been crafted and optimized for high-speed data movement and management. It contains hundreds of reusable software building blocks (called C++ objects) which enable the user to quickly and easily perform calculations to suit a particular application. For example, components permitting optimized filtering or Fourier transformations are provided. File utilities to allow creation, editing and deletion of the raw binary data files are also included as components.
Applications include High-Speed Recording/Playback, Laboratory Instrumentation or Factory Instrumentation.
Pricing for the Andale Turnkey Logging System starts at just $11,900.
