uDX-221 Multifunction Multimodule (Dual Serial I/O, Clock/Calendar and CMOS RAM)
Multiboard-85/Multibox-85 (discontinued) Global Positioning System (GPS) ReceiversThe MICRODESIGNS series of GPS Receivers are designed around OEM GPS engines manufactured by Magellan Navigation. Formerly marketed under the Ashtech® and Magellan brands, these GPS engines are the core of our family of products that may be used to evaluate GPS for your application or as end-user products in their own right.GPS-100 Mobile GPS Receiver (G8 Sensor) (discontinued)An inexpensive 8-channel receiver designed for mobile application. Built around the now-discontinued Ashtech® G8 GPS engine, the GPS-100 provides a rugged enclosure, an RS-232 interface, status display and power conditioning for demanding mobile environments. This product has been superseded by the GPS-101.GPS-101 Mobile GPS Receiver (A12 Sensor) (discontinued)An inexpensive 12-channel receiver designed for mobile application. Built around the Magellan Navigation A12 GPS engine, the GPS-101 provides a rugged enclosure, an RS-232 interface, status display and power conditioning for demanding mobile environments. The GPS-101 is the replacement for the discontinued GPS-100. Manufactured for Magellan Navigation by MICRODESIGNS, A12 Sensor details and a PDF-format datasheet may be found here.GPS-102 Mobile GPS Receiver (B12 Sensor) (discontinued)An inexpensive 12-channel receiver designed for mobile application. Built around the Magellan Navigation B12 GPS engine, the GPS-102 provides a rugged enclosure, an RS-232 interface, status display and power conditioning for demanding mobile environments.GPS-103 Mobile GPS Receiver (AC12 Sensor) (discontinued)An inexpensive 12-channel receiver designed for mobile application and featuring raw GPS carrier phase measurements. Built around the new Magellan Navigation AC12 GPS engine, the GPS-103 provides a rugged enclosure, an RS-232 interface, status display and power conditioning for demanding mobile environments. Manufactured for Magellan Navigation by MICRODESIGNS, AC12 Sensor details and a PDF-format datasheet may be found here.GPS-200 Reference Receiver (discontinued)This sophisticated 12-channel receiver is based on the powerful Magellan Navigation G12 GPS engine and is intended to be used as the position reference receiver in an automated vehicle location (AVL) system, providing location correction data to increase the accuracy of positions reported by mobile vehicles. The GPS-200 is provided in a 1U rack mount enclosure for use in 19" system racks.Panasonic Thermoluminescent Dosimetry (TLD) Reader AccessoriesThe MICRODESIGNS series of Glow-Curve Interfaces acquire detailed information about the radiation dose read from a Thermoluminescent Dosimetery badge by a Panasonic TLD badge reader. The GCI digitizes phosphor glow-curve and timing data and saves the reader's measurement string for analysis and long-term storage by a host computer. Programmed using English-like command mnemonics, our GCIs are supported by third-party software vendors, managing glow-curve data as port of a complete personnel dose data managment package.GCI/1 Glow Curve Interface (discontinued)Real-time data acquisition system in a 19" rackmount cabinet for Panasonic UD-710A Thermoluminescent Dosimeter (TLD) Readers. The GCI/1 provides glow curve, timing and dosage information from the TLD reader to a host computer via a GPIB (IEEE-488) interface.GCI/2 Glow Curve Interface![]() GCI/3 Glow Curve Interface![]() ![]() TCA/1 Thermal Curve Adapter![]() ![]() LMP-7900 Lamp Bias Control
![]() The Panasonic UD-7900 TLD reader uses an advanced computer-controlled power supply to operate the heating lamp, which allows the UD-7900 to operate in UD-710A heating mode, UD-716AGL heating mode, or anywhere in between. However, an unfortunate side effect of the new technology is the loss of the lamp bias constant-current feature provided in those older Panasonic readers. Installed between the lamp power supply and the UD-7900’s heating lamp, the LMP-7900 restores the missing lamp bias constant-current feature. The LMP-7900’s operation is simple: if the lamp voltage supplied by the reader is greater than 2.5 Volts (lamp “on”), then the LMP-7900 applies the full voltage to the lamp; if the lamp voltage is less than 2.5 Volts (lamp “off”), then the LMP-7900 switches to bias constant-current mode. The LMP-7900’s bias current level is set manually with an internal screwdriver control — similar to the adjustment in the UD-710A — and is factory-preset to a value of 2.0 Amps. Industrial Single Board Computer Expansion (SBX) BoardsIntel developed the SBX Multimodule concept in the early 1980s as a method for easily expanding the on-board resources of industrial single-board computers. Intel allowed SBX to be an open architecture standard and encouraged their customers and competitors to design specialty I/O boards. Eventually becoming IEEE Standard 959, the SBX standard defines two PC board sizes: the "single wide" measuring 2.85 x 3.70 inches and the "double wide" measuring 2.85 x 7.50 inches; both sizes attach to the host board using a special locking connector and one or more nylon spacers with screws. Although not as widely used as they were in the 1980s and early 1990s, SBX modules continue to be used today in many legacy computer systems.uDX-221 Multifunction Multimodule (Dual Serial, Clock/Calendar and CMOS RAM)![]() uDX-241 Clock and Quad Serial Multimodule![]() uDX-342 Quad Serial Multimodule![]() uDX-488 GPIB (IEEE-488) Multimodule![]() uDX-548 Buffered 48-line/Centronics Multimodule![]() uDX-549 Bit-Programmable Multimodule![]() Industrial Single Board Computers/CabinetsMultiboard-85/Multibox-85 (discontinued)An industrially packaged 8085-based single board computer system providing all features of Intel's iSBC-80/24 (ROM, RAM, parallel I/O, RS-232C serial I/O, interrupt controller, counter/timer) plus the following enhancements: added EPROM and RAM capacity, prototype area, RAM is battery-maintained CMOS, packaged with power supply in a 3½" rack-mountable cabinet. A very economical package for small micro-based systems.Multiboard-86/Multibox-86 (discontinued)![]() Multiboard-88/Expansion Board![]() Multiboard-535A compact 12 MHz 80C535-based single board computer providing up to 64K bytes of EPROM, up to 32K bytes of RAM, up to 8K bytes of EEPROM, RS-232C serial I/O, parallel I/O, counter timers, an eight-input A/D converter, one SBX site, prototype area and on-board DC power supply.
