Applications

TEK Microsystems, Inc., designs, manufactures and markets a wide range of advanced high-performance I/O products for embedded real-time computing systems. The comprehensive product line includes advanced carrier, payload and switch boards based on widely adopted industry standards, advanced PMC/XMC cards, advanced ADC/DAC interfaces, and complete data acquisition, data recording/storage systems and signal processing systems.
 
Tekmicro products are used in real-time systems and military embedded systems designed for data acquisition, instrumentation, control systems and signal processing in customer applications such as reconnaissance, signals intelligence, satellite telemetry, mine detection, medical imaging, radar, sonar, semiconductor inspections and seismic research.

Tekmicro major product lines include:

- Embedded Sensor I/O Solutions using the latest in FPGA technologies. Available in both commercial and rugged versions, these real-time embedded systems and military embedded systems are deployable in any environment from laboratory to harsh environments.

- Data Recorders & Storage platforms and solutions.  Tekmicro's data recording platforms provide developers with the ability to closely tailor their solution by selecting  the right QuiXilica digitizer (ADC) to build a fully functional data recording system to their individual project requirements.

The QuiXstore systems are available as fully integrated systems with front-end data sources from the Tekmicro family of Quixilica digitizer cards. These provide complete analog data recording functionality without the need for any customer-developed firmware. Pre-integration allows for the use of additional QuiXstore system-on-chip components on the digitizer cards. This allows the maximum recording data rates of the system to be extended.


Solution Partners

Tekmicro engages with select companies to help fill in the necessary product and technology areas beyond our focus. These partners work with us collaboratively to extend our solution capability in order to aid our customers in solving their application more efficiently.

Rugged Options for ADC, DAC, VXS, VPX and more

Ruggedization is designed into Tekmicro's military embedded systems from the start. Our design, test, and assembly practices address the thermal and mechanical packaging requirements of both commercial and rugged environments for our entire product line of real-time embedded systems, analog-to digital converters (ADC), digital-to-analog converters (DAC), and serial FPDP  I/O modules.

Tekmicro's embedded boards and systems operate effectively in laboratory, rugged air-cooled, and rugged conduction-cooled environments to meet the needs of R&D and deployed applications.  

Commercial grade embedded systems are intended for use in application development and benign operating environments. Rugged Level 2 , convection cooled, embedded systems are intended for harsh environments with more demanding temperature, humidity, shock, and vibration requirements. Rugged Level 3, conduction cooled, embedded systems provide wider operating temperatures and increased capabilities for shock, vibration, and humidity for extreme operating conditions.

All of Tekmicro’s commercial and rugged military embedded systems share the same circuit design and layered drop-in software. This allows customers to develop their application on commercial products in the lab and then seamlessly transition to rugged environments once development has been completed.

This easy migration from commercial to rugged environments results in lower total development costs, reduced system integration risk, and quicker time to market.
