Scan convertor PSR/PAR

General Description:

Scan-converter is an universal, separate electronic block intended for conversion of radar data (video, angle data) to the form suitable for transfer in LAN network.  Scan-converter is designed as two input channels version, having programmable inputs equipped with A/D converters or fast comparators. Scan-converter's output data format is 10/100Base-Tx for Ethernet using transfer protocol UDP. Scan-converter module has built-in powerful diagnostics.  Data conversion including available lossless compression proceeds in real time.  Scan-converter's mechanical design is realized in form of low 19" module.

It is possible to deliver scan-converter for purposes e.g. radar modernization or radar data transfer to remote station separately and Scan-converter's implementation into radar system is not complicated with respect to its compatible solution.
