Miniature data acquisition unit RDC

temperaturevibrationfor aerospace applications

The Remote Data Concentrator (RDC) is a miniature data acquisition unit designed for extremely harsh environments that can be located at the aircraft signal source. The RDC enables a distributed data acquisition architecture collecting as many as 12 sensor inputs from multiple locations on the airframe and transmitting data via ARINC 429 to avionics systems such as Flight Data Recorders (FDR), Health and Usage Monitoring System (HUMS) and other systems requiring critical aircraft data. RDC™ CAPABILITIES Compact & Lightweight Extremely compact and lightweight — weighs as little as 0.50 lb. (0.23 kg) Captures Analog & Discrete Captures analog and discrete sensor inputs at remote locations Soft-Core Processor Safety-critical soft-core processor for customer loadable analysis software Programmable Gain Amplifiers & Firmware Defined Acquisition Programmable gain amplifiers & firmware-defined data acquisition Internal Temperature Sensor & Vibration Immune Internal temperature sensor & vibration immune triaxial thermal accelerometer Environmental Qualifications & Design Assurance Qualified to DO-160G & MIL-STD-810F/461F/704F.
