This conference paper describes the benefits of using a mixture of both FPGA and CPU based technologies in conjunction with flexible software in a Flight Test context.

This paper looks at the challenges of designing a small data acquisition system that can provide hundreds of channels of measurement capability while operating in tight spaces exposed to fluids, high vibration, and extremes of temperature.

A customer contacted Curtiss-Wright with the need to upgrade a fleet of tactical aircraft. Read about the solution we developed here.

This white paper provides an introduction to the principles of QoS in Ethernet and IP networks, with an emphasis on practical implications for embedded systems.

The benefits of using value-added services and how this can be achieved without disrupting core data acquisition.

In this paper, we describe the problem of developing sensor fault detection within airborne instrumentation systems, and solutions based on machine-learning techniques.

A developer of a small launcher sought a data acquisition solution that could endure harsh conditions, capture and transmit data during flight while also keeping costs to a minimum.

This white paper provides an overview of the challenges associated with using Ethernet for real-time systems and some approaches to addressing those challenges.

The Multi-Purpose Flight Recorder from Curtiss-Wright offers combined voice and flight data recording (FDR) and a minimum of 25 hours FDR and 4-channel, 2-hour CVR capability.

Ethernet has grown to become a universal networking technology, to meet the need for higher performance, many embedded systems now use “backplane Ethernet” to communicate between cards in modular systems.

David Buckley discusses how data can be packaged in a data acquisition application to suit different data sources.

In this knowledge packets video, David Buckley talks about what synchronous and asynchronous data sources mean in data acquisition systems and how to best capture this data to ensure data coherency.
