Solid
State Record/Play Card

The Phi
Technologies is proud to introduce this highly compact, state-of-the-art
digital audio recording system. With no moving parts and no tape,
the Solid State Record Card (SSR) stores digitized audio
in solid-state, nonvolatile PCMCIA memory cards. The SSR
System provides a sold foundation for the development of custom
and specialized solid-state recording systems to meet exacting
specifications. Its small size, rugged construction and suitability
for stand-alone use makes it ideal for automatic and unattended
operation.
The SSR
is perfect for OEM applications, or have Phi Tech design your
system. With Phi Tech's innovative Venture Partnership Program
customers who need technical assistance in the development of
their finished product can have Phi Tech Engineers design the
system. Phi Tech can then build a complete system to meet your
specifications. The unit can even have your logo. Engineering
costs are often minimal or nonexistent depending on the feasibility
and market potential of the product.
Features
of the SSR Card
Small
Size - The
audio and digital circuitry are contained on a single circuit
board assembly approximately 3.9 inches by 8.7 inches (100mm x
220mm). Audio is stored on a removable, nonvolatile Type II or
Type III PCMCIA flash memory card which is barely larger than
a credit card. Up to four modules can be contained in a single
half/height EIA-Standard 19-inch rack mount enclosure.
Low
Memory Usage - This is accomplished with highly efficient
bit rate reduction algorithms according to the ISO/MPEG-1 Layer
II Standard. The algorithm produces a compression ratio as high
as 24:1, and is selectable to fit a wide variety of applications,
from low-fidelity voice-range recording to high-fidelity music
reproduction.
Long
Record/Play Time
- The SSR records more than one hour of stereo audio on a 30 megabyte
PCMICA card. PCMCIA cards are readily available with a wide capacity
range.
High
Performance Audio Recording - The SSR records and reproduces
at 128 kBits/second, 20 Hz to 20 kHz bandwidth (48kHz sample frequency
with 85 db minimum dynamic range.).
Digital
and Analog Inputs and Outputs - The SSR provides the means
to interface with any kind of system. Audio connections for simplification
or digital connections for reproduction of the highest quality
possible.
Random
Access - Any recorded segment can be located and played instantly.
Re-Recordable
- Flash cards can be erased and re-recorded with no audio degradation.
Embedded
Text - Messages can be recorded and played back with embedded
synchronized text. Text can be displayed while audio is playing.
RS-232
Communication Protocol - Use this feature for controlling
the functions via computer serial port or an embedded controller.
Muli-Tracking
Operation - This feature offers a means of linking up to 256
individual SSR cards together, offering multiple two-track (stereo)
channels in parallel.
Extended
Playing Time - More record time can be achieved by cascading
the cards within the same enclosure.
