THE DESIGN OF A SINGLE CARD TELEMETRY MODULE FOR SMART MUNITION TESTINGOder, Stephen, Dearstine, Christina, Webb, Amy, Muir, John, Bahl, Inder, Burke, Larry, Stone, Weyant 10 1900 (has links)
International Telemetering Conference Proceedings / October 18-21, 2004 / Town & Country Resort, San Diego, California / M/A-COM, Inc. has developed a miniature Tactical Telemetry Module (TTM) for medium power
(500 mW and 1 W) telemetry applications. The TTM demonstrates system integration of a multi-channel
PCM encoder, lower S-band transmitter, and power regulation onto a single printed wiring
board (PWB). The module is smaller than a standard business card and utilizes both COTS and
M/A-COM proprietary technologies. The PCM encoder is designed for eight (8) analog inputs,
eight (8) discrete inputs, and one (1) synchronous RS-422 serial interface. Data rates of 300 kbps to
6 Mbps are supported. The module incorporates a frequency programmable, phase-locked FM S-band
transmitter. The transmitter utilizes M/A-COM’s new dual port VCO and high efficiency 500
mW and 1 W power amplifier MMIC’s. Additionally, switching power regulation circuits were
implemented within the module to provide maximum operating efficiency. This paper reviews the
design and manufacturing of the Tactical Telemetry Module (TTM) and its major components, and
presents system performance data.
