High-Speed, Real-Time Recording Systems Handbook
Written by Rodger Hosking, Vice President and Co-founder of Pentek
In today's world of high-speed A/D converters real-time signal recording has become a challenging task that requires specialized hardware and intelligent application software. When designing a real-time recorder capable of streaming sustained data to disk, the system developer has to consider the limitations presented by the recorder's operating and file systems, the limitations of disk drive technology, the hardware interfaces, and the RAID controller technology.
Fortunately for the application developer, serial fabrics have emerged to provide the high-speed interfaces required to move this data; disk drive and RAID HBAs (Host-Bus Adapters) have begun to exploit serial interfaces; finally, the emergence of SSD (Solid State Drive) technology provides a performance level previously unattainable in real-time recording systems.

Recording System Chassis
Pentek's Talon High-Speed Real-Time Recording Systems are available as Portable, Rackmount and Small Form Factor (SFF) chassis.
Talon Rackmount Systems are housed in a rack-mountable chassis in a PC server configuration. These highly-scalable recording and playback, rackmount and desktop systems are ideal for advanced research projects and proof-of-concept prototypes. The high-speed recording systems also serve as cost-effective embedded solutions for high-performance deployed applications.
Talon Portable Systems are available in a small briefcase-sized enclosure with an integral LCD display and keyboard. Pentek's family of portable high-speed recording systems are designed for mobility and flexibility, where size and weight is of paramount importance. These powerful systems are ideal for real-time digital signal acquisition and processing, software radio, and wideband signal recording and playback on the go.
