(June 1, 2008)Handheld Dynamic Signal Analyzer expands to 16 Channels

Crystal Instrument Corporation introduces CoCo-90, a new model with 16 input channels to its CoCo family.

The CoCo-90 is derived from the CoCo-80 platform. It is a powerful and simple to use handheld data recorder and dynamic signal analyzer that is ideal for a wide range of industries including automotive, aviation, aerospace, electronics and military that demand easy, quick and accurate data recording and real-time processing in the field.  CoCo-90 is a low-cost, light-weight, battery powered handheld system with unparalleled performance and accuracy. The user interface of CoCo-90 is specifically designed for easy and simple operation while it maintains the capability of providing a wide variety of analysis functions.

CoCo-90 is equipped with 16 input channels and can accurately measure and record both dynamic and static signals. The mass flash memory can record 16 channels of streaming signals simultaneously up to 51.2 kHz while simultaneously computing real-time time and frequency based functions. An embedded signal source channel provides various signal output waveforms that are synchronized with the input sampling rate.

The handheld system is equipped with two USB ports, 100 BaseT Ethernet, SD-card interface, audio input/output, 5.7 inch color LCD display and a keypad. The user can connect the CoCo-90 to a PC, download files and upgrade the software through several means of network connections.

The CoCo-90 utilizes a new signal processing method, Configurable Signal Analysis (CSA). CSA provides unique flexibility for real time analysis including filtering and spectral analysis.  Data can be downloaded to a PC and managed, analyzed and exported to other applications using the EDM software from Crystal Instruments.

CoCo-90 hardware uses dual CPU architecture. An XScale CPU handles the user interface, project configuration, power management, network communication as well as all the peripherals. A high-speed floating point DSP manages the data input/output and real-time processing. CoCo-90 is also configured with large RAM and NAND flash memory for mass data storage.  Special thermo and low power design eliminates the need for a cooling fan and increases the battery operating time. Proprietary hardware technology delivers more than 100 dB dynamic range. The extremely high dynamic range eliminates the need for multiple front end gain settings.
