Dr. Jeffrey Piepmeier has developed a high-speed digital cross correlator chip for use in microwave radiometry. Our project was to integrate the cross correlator integrated circuit in a PC-104 form factor compliant printed circuit board with an ISA bus microprocessor interface. Designs were necessary for analog to digital converters, logic translation circuits, adjustable voltage threshold circuits, and all related driver and control software. An additional printed circuit board meeting the PC-104 form factor was developed to supply power to a complete correlation system.
