Ultrasonic Board
High-Speed Ultrasonic Data Acquisition Hardware for Custom System Integration
CCNDT designs and manufactures proprietary ultrasonic data acquisition boards that serve as the core signal processing engine in all CCNDT C-scan systems and many third-party integrations. These PCI/PCIe-compatible boards provide multi-channel pulser/receiver functionality, high-speed digitization, and real-time signal processing in a compact form factor, enabling OEMs and system integrators to build custom ultrasonic inspection solutions.
Hardware Architecture
CCNDT ultrasonic boards integrate multi-channel pulser/receivers, high-speed ADCs, and FPGA-based real-time signal processing on a single board. The architecture supports simultaneous multi-channel excitation and reception, programmable pulse voltage and frequency, and flexible gating for gated C-scan acquisition. On-board memory buffers enable burst-mode acquisition at maximum scan speeds without data loss.
- Multi-channel pulser/receiver with high-speed ADC
- FPGA-based real-time signal processing
- Programmable pulse voltage, frequency, and gating
- On-board memory buffer for burst-mode acquisition
- PCI/PCIe bus interface for host PC integration
Integration Flexibility
Designed for system builders, CCNDT ultrasonic boards come with comprehensive SDK and driver support for Windows and Linux platforms. API libraries expose full control of acquisition parameters, trigger synchronization with external motion encoders, and real-time data streaming. This enables seamless integration into custom inspection machines, robotic work cells, and in-line production monitoring systems.
