ITC/USA 2005 Conference Proceedings / The Forty-First Annual International Telemetering Conference and Technical Exhibition / October 24-27, 2005 / Riviera Hotel & Convention Center, Las Vegas, Nevada / Hypersonic test vehicles require extensive data acquisition in order to accurately determine and refine
engine performance. The increasing speed of scramjet engines places new constraints on data
manipulation and system control.
A compact modular flight computer has been developed that has high speed analog data acquisition, a
programmable high data rate PCM (Pulse Code Modulation) encoder, compact data storage, and high
speed I/O (Input/Output) capabilities. Principle to the design is the thermal management required for
space environments. A functional overview is presented together with a summary of the analog
performance. The integration of future capability requirements is also discussed.
