GE Intelligent Platforms tools provide a full suite of advanced features for use in the laboratory, in flight, on the flight line, or in any application requiring real-time data acquisition and analysis, for MIL-STD and ARINC Protocols.
We are satisfying the increasing performance demands of advanced signal processing applications with the latest DSPs (Digital Signal Processing), FPGAs (Field-programmable gate array) and PowerPC-based multiprocessors. Our high-performance hardware is complemented by a full suite of development software and a large selection of data acquisition and recording capabilities. These include numerous high-speed acoustic data conversion boards plus high capacity data storage systems. Our single, dual processor and quad processor boards use Freescale™ PowerPC technology, and like many of our products, offer several different levels of ruggedization for commercial, industrial, defence and aerospace applications.
We offer high-resolution, high-performance graphics I/O solutions for embedded video and display applications. Our graphics subsystems are based on high performance commercial chips for state-of-the-art image quality and capabilities.
We offer a range of input and output types designed to offer tremendous flexibility to system architects. Our product range covers analog-to-digital and digital-to-analog converters, digital I/O cards for special function devices, highly versatile, DSP-based I/O products, IndustryPacks (IPs) and transition modules and a wide range of multi-channel serial interface boards for standard bus and expansion architectures such as CompactPCI, VMEbus, IndustryPack, PC•MIP, and PMC.
We have one of the industry’s widest and most flexible collections of analog input and output boards for video compression, SDR, SIGINT, radar, medical imaging, wireless communications, sonar and test and measurement applications that is complemented by a range of system-level capabilities including PCIe, XMC and VPX-based data acquisition, processing and recording system solutions and signal analysis solutions.
Our family of high performance multiprocessing solutions includes PowerPC and Intel - based Single Board Computers (SBC), and multiprocessors as well as fabric switch cards, PMC/XMC carriers and FPGA processing engines. In addition we offer AXIS, a market leading suite of multiprocessing software with an integrated development environment and high performance math and function libraries to reduce development time and maximize performance for the most demanding signal and data processing applications. You will find our Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS), rugged multiprocessing modules and AXIS software in major deployed platforms including underwater and naval surface sonar, land-based radar and airborne sensor, image and radar processing platforms.
We support one of the most extensive I/O lines in the embedded board industry, we have a vast selection of Ethernet switches and LAN and WAN cards. Our range of other I/O interfaces includes packet processors, audio, video, storage, IndustryPack®, bus adapters, PCI Express®, Fibre Channel, and StarFabric. Our huge collection of PMC cards is supplemented by a leading group of AdvancedMC™ cards for MicroTCA™ and AdvancedTCA® systems.
We have the most robust portfolio of embedded and packaged solutions for Mil/Aero, Commercial, Industrial and Telecom markets. We offer enhanced network redundancy capabilities as well as 10 GigE support. We offer a wide range of Network Interface Cards with extensive driver support.
Our modular Platforms are application-ready MicroTCA™ platforms that have been tested for mechanical and thermal stability and pre-validated for interoperability, including field proven carrier and module management code. Based on open architecture specifications, these flexible, high-speed chassis allow hot-swappable AdvancedMC™ modules to plug directly into their own backplane. Modular Platforms offer a high degree of technology re-use that protects investments, enables build-as-you-grow systems and allows custom platforms to be built using standard modules.
It is increasingly important for network administrators to control network traffic in order to maintain both security and quality of service. Packet processors provide secure, high-speed connectivity and complex security processing at wire speed performance. With our packet processors, you can quickly create applications such as Network Address Translators, Session Border Controllers, Media Gateways, Edge Routers, Firewall bricks and Video Services Switches that meet the demands of security conscious network administrators.
Reflective Memory networks are Real Time Local Area Networks in which each computer always has an up-to-date local copy of the shared memory set. These specialty networks are specifically designed to provide highly deterministic data communications. They deliver the tightly timed performance necessary for a variety of distributed simulation and industrial control applications. Reflective Memory networks have benefited from advances in general-purpose data networks, but they remain an entirely independent technology, driven by different requirements and catering to applications where determinism, implementation simplicity, and a lack of software overhead are key factors.
Our ATCA single board computers incorporate the latest trends in high speed interconnect technologies, next generation processors and improved reliability, manageability and serviceability. ATCA Single Board Computers (SBCs), deployed with other ATCA blades, such as our packet processing ATCA blades, provide control-plane and hi-level data-plane support for communications applications.
VPX (previously known as VITA 46) brings switched fabrics to VMEbus-based systems. VPX was specifically created with the defence community in mind, and it retains the existing 6U and 3U form factors, supports existing PMC and XMC mezzanines, and maintains the maximum possible compatibility with VMEbus.
Our Processor AdvancedMCs fully implement the AdvancedTCA® modular design concept. They bring feature-rich processor capabilities to a carrier board, and can be added to any host card or MicroTCA™ system with the appropriate mechanical and electrical connections.
GE Intelligent Platforms complements its VME processor solutions with PowerPC-based 6U single board computers developed to meet the needs of demanding embedded applications
Our advanced VMEbus single board computers use the latest Intel or compatible processor technology. VMEbus technology is still dominant in many embedded board markets and has proven itself to be a stable technology that evolves with the needs of those markets.
We offer a comprehensive line of Intel-based CPCI single board computers for embedded computing applications. These products range from boards targeted to the unique needs of telecommunications and military applications to general purpose boards that can be applied to a wide variety of embedded applications.
PowerPC-based CPCI boards are designed for use in a broad spectrum of applications from military and aerospace to commercial and telecommunications systems. They are available with diverse feature sets and varying ruggedization levels to accommodate the unique requirements of demanding applications.
Applications which do not require all the features or the system infrastructure of CompactPCI® or VME are perhaps better served by an embedded motherboard, a stackable solution or a Computer on Module (COM). We offer a wide variety of these versatile form factors with a range of performance levels. Applications which take advantage of these form factors often have an extended service life expectancy. As a result, our motherboards, stackables and COM products are available with lifecycle and configuration control services which may be able to effectively extend the life of the application.
Our flexible off-the-shelf computing platforms can be readily configured to meet the processing, I/O, video and graphics needs of a variety of different applications. Our platforms are based on open systems architectures, so they allow for technology insertion, and support the COTS concept. Contact your sales representative to learn more about our systems product portfolio and discuss your system requirements.
