PULSE TO DIGITAL CONVERSION SYSTEM

ELECTRONIC DEVELOPMENT ASSOCIATES, EDA, ESTABLISHED IN 1982, WITH 25 YEARS PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT EXPERIENCE, NOTEWORTHY CONSULTANTS AND A FULLY EQUIPPED FACILITY, HAS FORMULATED A UNIQUE APPROACH FOR A REAL TIME, ONE STEP, ACCURATE, WIDE DYNAMIC RANGE AND MULTICHANNEL PULSE TO DIGITAL CONVERTER SYSTEM. THE EDA PULSE TO DIGITAL CONVERTER SHALL UTILIZE A SIMPLE METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE FREQUENCIES OF EACH OF 30 INPUT PULSE TRAIN CHANNELS. HOWEVER, THE UNIQUENESS OF THE EDA APPROACH OVER EXISTING INSTRUMENTATION TECHNOLOGY IS THAT THE EDA DIGITAL OUTPUT IS IN REAL TIME, WITH UP TO 200 MEASUREMENTS PER SECOND FOR EACH OF 30 PULSE DATA CHANNELS. LIKEWISE, EACH DATA OUTPUT IS ALSO UPDATED AT A RATE UP TO 200 TIMES PER SECOND. ALL OF THIS CAPABILITY CAN BE PACKAGED IN A SINGLE RACK MOUNTED INSTRUMENTATION ENCLOSURE UTILIZING STANDARD COMPONENTS AND CIRCUIT CARD TECHNIQUES. EDA PROPOSES TO DEMONSTRATE THIS CONCEPT BY DESIGNING AND BUILDING A FULLY EXPANDABLE TWO CHANNEL BREADBOARD MODEL THEN TESTING AND DEMONSTRATING ITS PERFORMANCE.
