KAD/ADC/106 Accelerometer ADC

The KAD/ADC/106 is used to condition and digitize up to eight differential-ended analog channels. Six of these channels have a constant current source and high-pass (DC-reject) filter for use with ICP accelerometer devices.

At the heart of the KAD/ADC/106 is a hard-wired state machine that oversamples all channels at a rate between 96 ksps and 192 ksps and digitally filters any noise above the user-programmable cutoff frequency.

This is achieved using cascaded, half-band, Finite-Impulse-Response (FIR) filters followed by an 8th order Butterworth IIR filter with a default cutoff point set at one-quarter of the sampling frequency (fc = fs / 4).

All signals are sampled simultaneously (isochronously). Thus, when several channels are sampled at different sampling rates, at the start of an acquisition cycle all channels are aligned.

 

Aerospace Instrumentation Brochure

Modern aerospace instrumentation systems can be highly complex, and it can be difficult to know how to meet program needs. It’s not unusual for requirements to change during a campaign and cause significant delays, and data must be captured reliably no matter what – otherwise expensive additional flights will be needed or months of program data could be lost. Read our brochure to learn how you can reduce your risk with commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) solutions.
