      Multi-RAID SSD NVMe Streamer System

      Collaboration to develop a high performance, Multi-RAID SSD Streaming System to incorporate into high performance data recording systems for the US Defense Dept.

      DEC is a Government Contractor working with the US Defense Dept. When we needed to develop a fast, SSD multi-RAID NVMe streamer for one of our projects, we became aware of Missing Link Electronics by way of Xilinx’s Premier Partners Program.

      This project required advanced knowledge of both specialized hardware and communication protocols to meet our customers exacting requirements. MLE came in, evaluated our needs, and developed the technical design using their own NVMe IP and in-depth hardware and software expertise to provide, on time and on budget, a board level solution to integrate into our system design. MLE provided unique benefit by having great access to our supplier’s technology, advanced IP, and specialized, hands-on expertise. I recommend MLE to others needing advanced expertise in programmable hardware and software design. Working with them is a pleasure and produces excellent results.

      Dan Whitehead, Electrical Engineer at DEC

      DEC specializes in advanced sensor and processing technologies for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR), Unmanned Systems, and Self-Protection applications for the defense industry.

      High-Speed Camera Interfaces with Fraunhofer HHI TCP/IP

      Excelitas PCO GmbH has licensed MLE NPAP, the TCP/UDP/IP Full Accelerator originally invented by Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute (HHI).

      Martin Schwarzbauer, Product Development Manager Camera Systems at PCO, says: “We rely on the TCP protocol because we need reliable data without a backup layer for lost data at the application level. TCP takes place at the center protocol layer of the OSI model and is implemented as an IP core in FPGA logic. This results in significantly shorter latency, avoiding costly external DRAM buffers. Plus, due to the flow-control mechanism of TCP, the transmission bandwidth can be much higher between the between the camera and subsequent processing in a PC.”

      Alexander Grünig, CTO of PCO, adds: “The IP core from Missing Link Electronics fits perfectly our streaming concept, because it operates in programmable logic without the need for a CPU core. During our benchmarking and evaluation phase we clearly saw the advantages of this technology.”

      PCO, an Excelitas Technologies® Corp. brand, is a leading specialist and Pioneer in Cameras and Optoelectronics with more than 30 years of expert knowledge and experience of developing and manufacturing high-end imaging systems. The company’s cutting edge sCMOS and high-speed cameras are used in scientific and industrial research, automotive testing, quality control, metrology and a large variety of other applications all over the world.

      The PCO® advanced imaging concept was conceived in the early 1980s by imaging pioneer, Dr. Emil Ott, who was conducting research at the Technical University of Munich for the Chair of Technical Electrophysics. His work there led to the establishment of PCO AG in 1987 with the introduction of the first image-intensified camera followed by the development of its proprietary Advanced Core technologies which greatly surpassed the imaging performance standards of the day.

      Today, PCO continues to innovate, offering a wide range of high-performance camera technologies covering scientific, high-speed, intensified and FLIM imaging applications across the scientific research, industrial and automotive sectors.

      Acquired by Excelitas Technologies in 2021, PCO represents a world renowned brand of high-performance scientific CMOS, sCMOS, CCD and high-speed cameras that complement Excelitas’ expansive range of illumination, optical and sensor technologies and extend the bounds of our end-to-end photonic solutions capabilities.

      Valens Semiconductor Ltd.: Design Services for FPGA and ASIC

      Valens is the inventor and the world leader in HDBaseT technology and a top provider of semiconductor products for the distribution of ultra-high-definition multimedia content, through a single cable, according to the needs of its target markets: AV, automotive, industrial, and consumer electronics.

      Valens is always looking for the best in the class partners for innovative ideas development. At 2017 I had a pleasure to work with MLE on one of such ideas. MLE’s team showed responsiveness, professionalism, quality of work and competence during the work with Valens and helped to realize the goals. I found at MLE a talented and highly professional partner that contributed a lot to our success. Highly recommended !!!

      Jitter reduction in a streaming video processing FPGA

      TQ-Systems wireless HD-video interface enables you to transmit uncompressed full HD-Video data up to 1080p60 using license free 5 GHz band and without line of sight.

      TQ-Systems’ technology creates a radio standard that achieves the outstanding video quality of the HDMIT and 3G-SDI used on cable – without video delay (lip syncing) and with low energy consumption. [http://www.modul-number-one.de/modul-no-1.html]

      “MLE supported us in getting the maximum out of the selected FPGA device, including timing-closure at HD-SDI speeds. Their anti-jitter solution could be added to the target design, which allows us to reduce the BoM while delivering signal quality according to SMPTE standards.” says Harald Kaderabek, Head of R&D at TQ-Systems Durach.

      TQ-Systems Durach GmbH, formerly known as SRI Radio Systems GmbH, is part of the TQ-Group, a group of companies which provides extensive system services right from the idea to the finished product.

      Platforms for System-Level Test

      System-Level Test requires compute architectures that combine high IO flexibility with fast processing for short time-to-test.

      Missing Link Electronics has been providing Advantest with Configurable System components based on Open Source Linux software and FPGA technology for hardware acceleration.

      Advantest Corporation, the world’s largest provider of automatic test equipment (ATE) to the semiconductor industry, has for over five decades led the way in developing new and innovative test and handling solutions for the global electronics industry.

      IO-Link integration for a commercial sensor product

      IO-Link is the new IEC 61131-9 communication standard for connecting automation systems with smart sensors and actuators. It enables device configuration over the product life cycle and adds powerful failure detection and diagnostic methods.

      Missing Link Electronics has developed an IO-Link device stack, optimized for portability to a variety of microcontroller architectures. This IO-Link device stack has been extensively tested for IO-Link standard compliance v1.1 with protocol, physical interface and EMC test routines.

      Missing Link Electronics is our technology partner for IO-Link. Relying on their expert know-how in both the IO-Link software stack and microcontroller integration matters, we ended up with a new smart sensor that went into production in March 2013, says Thomas Schorpp, project manager at ifm electronic GmbH.

      Since the foundation of the company in 1969 ifm has shaped industrial automation by continuous new developments in the field of sensors, controllers and systems. ifm is meanwhile one of the world’s leading manufacturers in the automation industry.
