DSPCon introduces a revolution in data acquisition, condition-based maintenance, prognostic health management, and snap-in/snap-out solutions: The PodLink Platform.

Building on DSPCon’s decades-long history of data acquisition and analysis systems, the PodLink™ platform takes advantage of new paradigms in system design.

The PodLink platform serves as the base hardware and software for multiple systems. From a flexible and cost-effective on-board validation platform, to one of the industry’s first hardware platforms for Prognostic Health Management (PHM) and Condition-Based Maintenance (CBM), the PodLink platform offers high-speed/high-value performance and great flexibility.

Built to Lower Costs, Decrease Risk

DSPCon uses a distributed approach to lower testing costs, while increasing reliability.

PodLink is a rugged, low-power and low-cost platform that offers unparalleled modularity, and can be scaled appropriately by customizing hardware and software components for each application. Typically, a system built on the platform would contain one control/processor pod, and at least one SensorPod.

DSPCon uses the PodLink platform to provide a common pod-based architecture that supports as many sensor pods as required, each of which can be sampled at as high a rate as required. The control/processor pod has sufficient processing capability to meet the needs for both current and future data acquisition, CBM, and PHM applications.

For PHM applications, the platform provides the missing common hardware and software platform that is powerful and flexible enough to support complex PHM algorithms, which can be provided by DSPcon, third party developers, or test personnel.
