*C Series CAN Interface Module
CAN Interface
C Series CAN Interface Modules communicate using onboard transceivers for High-Speed/Flexible Data‑Rate or Low-Speed/Fault Tolerant CAN. C Series CAN Interface Modules are either compatible with NI-XNET or the NI-985x driver, depending on model.Using NI-XNET, you can create applications that require real-time, high-speed manipulation of hundreds of CAN frames and signals. The NI-XNET device-driven DMA engine enables the onboard processor to move CAN frames and signals between the interface and the user program without CPU interrupts, minimizing message latency and freeing host processor time. C Series CAN Interface Modules work well in applications such as hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation, rapid control prototyping, bus monitoring, and automation control.

Silver Button Sockets
-
For BGA, QFN, or LGA applications, GTP contact technology provides >94 GHz signal speed and can additionally be used in high cycle life applications such as ATE. These sockets support pitches from 0.2 mm to 1.27 mm. Ironwood's GT sockets are ideal for prototyping and testing almost any BGA device application. These IC sockets provide excellent signal integrity yet remain cost effective. Innovative elastomer interconnect technology that delivers low signal loss (1dB at 94GHz) and supports BGA packages with pitches down to 0.2mm was utilized in these sockets. GT BGA sockets are mechanically mounted over a target system's BGA lands using mounting and alignment holes at proper locations (page 2 of the individual socket drawing shows recommended PCB layout information). These low-profile sockets are only 2.5 mm per side larger than actual IC packages (industry's smallest footprint).

RF Frontends
-
Becker Nachrichtentechnik GmbH
Software-Defined Radio (SDR) is an attractive approach for mobile communication architectures in the development and evaluation phase for a rapid prototyping on a flexible platform. SDRs support a wide frequency range. However, for practical use in the field the HF properties are insufficient. The transmit power is limited to a 2-digit mW value. Dedicated filters are required for an effective suppression of out-of-band signals and to improve the noise figure of the receiver chain. Extending SDRs with application-specific RF-frontends achieves optimal RF performance in the field.

Boundary Scan Test
-
Boundary Scan is a very useful tool for quick, low-cost, re-usable powered-up test of an assembly for basic functionality. Because a fixture with test probes is not required, it is possible to have a working test available within hours or days, rather than weeks. Designers can receive rapid feedback on their prototype boards with tests that can be used again during production testing, as well as for device programming. Given power, ground and Tap port signals, tests can be written to assess the performance of the boundary scan enabled parts on an assembly and other parts on the boundary scan chain.

Rapid Prototyping
-
Prototyping is a crucial step in the larger product design and development process. Prototypes allow organizations to stress-test their ideas, evaluate form factor and appearance, assess feasibility and production requirements, and ultimately produce a solid proof of concept. But prototyping can be a surprisingly challenging undertaking: it requires sourcing different materials and parts, possibly incorporating mechanical engineering alongside industrial design, and combining skillsets to produce a single, tangible prototype.
