The GALEP-5D-60 is a high-end programming device for production & development. Its modular concept, its USB (Universal Serial Bus) & network-connection & its "standalone"-capability make it a modular concept for all programming tasks in laboratory & production. The programming device of the size of a briefcase weighs only 750 g. GALEP-5D has been trimmed without any compromise on speed. For programming & communication there is an internal 200 MIPS ARM-9 RISC-processor under Linux, which controls the 60 pin-driver via an FPGA. The FPGA (freely programmable logic) contains pulse generator, buffer storage & state machines for hardware acceleration of the programme algorithms. In this way time-critical components can be programmed in a speed, which could not be achieved by software alone. The Ethernet-port permits a data transfer theoretically at up to 100 MB/s. The internal 128 MB RAM stores the data even for larger components in the device the data needs to be transmitted only once even in case of multiple programming. An in-house developed pin-driver chip guarantees the optimum signal quality for the component to be programmed, permits the small
Dimensions (L x B x H 172 x 118 x 22 mm) & the low power consumption.
