Osprey PMC Radar Input Card

PMC Radar Input Card
Osprey, a member of the Hawkeye family, is an integrated radar capture board that provides an interface to a wide range of radar signal types in a compact, low-power PMC form factor. The card can interface to a wide variety of radars including: ASDE-3, RADDS, SPS-40, KH-1007, and Terma Scanter. A wide range of PRF rates, rotation rates, and effective sampling rates can be accommodated without hardware change. Osprey digitises up to three synchronous analogue radar videos at 50 MHz to 10-bit precision. This data can then be converted to 8-bit or 4-bit samples using a programmable function. Mixing between the three videos and up to 8-bits of digital radar data is also possible. In "raw" mode, up to 16k samples per return can be transferred to the host. Alternatively, range gating and subsampling can be performed.
