The processor may be programmed to convert data in real time from any format to any other format. The uMACC is programmed directly on the hardware - i.e. with no operating system - enabling it to achieve optimum latencies. Its small size, weight and low power requirements make it an excellent candidate for solving communications incompatibilities. Before Ordering: The 8000MACC is designed to work as COTS equipment requiring only that the user populate the translation tables and download them using the accompanying software to the 8000MACC. Since Excalibur engineers have the experience in dozens of projects we have found that our customer’s projects can be implemented much faster and with lower risk if we fill in the tables for them. We provide this service free of charge. The tables are then provided to the customer who may then edit them to change, add to, or refine as required by the project. We also have experience with projects in which simple translation is insufficient and the 8000MACC is tasked with initializing equipment on its own – without input data to guide it, or where special timing requirements or state machines need to be enforced not directly related to inputs. We often can implement these requirements into the 8000MACC thereby solving project specific issues at lower cost and lower risk that would otherwise be possible. This may involve customization of the 8000MACC and may incur NRE costs. In order to implement these tables and to determine if any special processing is required we ask you to send us a written spec of your requirement.
