DDC's field proven technology is integrated into the world's most advanced civil aerospace, defense, industrial and space applications.
Data Device Corporation (DDC) is a world leader in the design and manufacture of high-reliability Connectivity solutions (Data Networking Components to Processor Based Subsystems) for aerospace, defense, space, and industrial applications.
DDC is a market leader in high-reliability data bus networking solutions, including sub-systems, boards, components, and software for the defense, civil aerospace, and space markets. DDC provides data bus solutions for MIL-STD-1553/1760, ARINC 429/717, Fibre Channel, Ethernet, CANbus, Serial I/O, and other protocols.
Data Bus & Network Soultions
DATEL, a subsidiary of PDC, was established in 1970 and has been a long time leader in providing high precision data acquisition components, including data converters, power supplies, DC-DC converters, and digital panel meters.
DATEL
PDC offers proven smart power control and power conversion solutions that enable land, sea, air, and space vehicle systems the ability to control and distribute raw and conditioned power, more efficiently and reliably. Power management with PDC's Solid-State Power Controller (SSPC) solutions offer dramatic SWaP-C saving advantages over the electromechanical switches, relays, and circuit breakers they replace. PDC's power conversion and supply solutions, offering greater than 92% efficiency, provide high quality conditioned power in a space saving, reliable, and field-proven, "fit and forget" design.
Power Solutions
PDC is a leader in high reliability motor control and synchro/resolver motion feedback solutions for defense, civil aerospace, space, and industrial applications. DDC's motor control solutions deliver high reliability postion, torque and speed control, while our synchro/resolver motion feedback solutions provide high accuracy positioning, direction and speed data for high reliability applications.
Motion Control Solutions
DDC is a leader in high reliability transformer, magnetic and cable assembly solutions for the aerospace, defense, and space industries, with Beta Transformer and North Hills brands offering field proven magnetics solutions for the most demanding environments, including extreme temperature, shock, vibration, dust, fluid, and radiation.
Transformer & Magnetic Soultions
DDC and PDC are leading suppliers of space qualified SBCs and radiation hardened components. Utilizing multiple radiation hardening techniques, DDC and PDC's space solutions incorporate one or more of the following elements: RAD-PAK® technology, Rad Hard by Design, Triple Mode Redundancy (TMR), and Error-Correction Codes (ECC). DDC and PDC's space-qualified and field proven solutions are engineered for space’s extreme environmental requirements, while reducing space, weight, and power consumption, along with total cost of ownership.
Satellites & Space Systems
DDC’s core competencies and unique suite of capabilities for the production of custom solutions span every stage of development including electrical design, mechanical design, test engineering, process engineering, manufacturing, and product assurance. DDC is uniquely qualified to support a wide range of application requirements and technologies based upon our decades of experience in analog and digital microelectronics, magnetics, radiation mitigation technology and top quality certifications for AS9100 Rev C, ISO 9001:2008, EN9100, JIS Q9100 and through the DLA MIL-PRF-38534.
Custom Solutions
The BU-66318 ACE-Bridge provides a simple, complete and tested solution for interfacing any of DDC's ACE series (including the ACE, Mini-ACE, Enhanced Mini-ACE, Micro-ACE and Mini-ACE Mark3 series) MIL-STD-1553 terminals to a PCI bus.
The ACE-Bridge connects directly to any 3.3 volt PCI bus as a Target device. With its interrupt support and a 32 deep by 32-bit wide FIFO allowing for burst write transfers, the BU-66318 can significantly reduce system overhead by utilizing the efficiency of the PCI bus.
The BU-66318 may be connected to up to six ACE series MIL-STD- 1553 terminals directly without any "glue logic."
Utilizing a SELECT and STROBE handshake method, the BU-66318 accesses all of its MIL-STD-1553 terminals RAM and Registers through a 16 bit Address Data bus.
Support for an optional local microprocessor is included in the ACEBridge. If a local microprocessor is added, the BU-66318 uses a DMA type handshake method to arbitrate for the local bus. A shared RAM interface is also included.
