Electronics & Controllers

Technology Overview

AOS electronics and controllers serve as the command units for our components and systems.

General Product Overview

AOS electronics and controllers are designed to optimize component performance and overall system efficiency. Controllers are capable of seamlessly pairing multicomponent command, providing a dramatic improvement to industry beam control systems. Single ruggedized AOS Controllers can control multiple components, immediately reducing system Size, Weight, Power, Cost, and Cooling (SWAP-C2) considerations—an industry-wide priority.

AOS produces high-power drive electronic controllers to command our Plate-Type DM (PDM) product line. AOS can integrate the controller into standard rack mountable 3U chassis with a LVDS/Ethernet, Cameralink, fiber or CXP interface. PDM controllers start at 32 channels and are expandable up to 384 channels within a single controller chassis. AOS builds multiple correlated controllers for DMs larger than 384 channels. AOS can also integrate controllers into ruggedized or compact packaging to satisfy performance, size, weight or cooling requirements.
