RZ6Overview
The RZ6 Multi I/O Processor is a high sample rate processor with flexible input/
output capabilities. The RZ6 features up to four digital signal processors cards; any
card can be either a single standard processor card (RZDSP) or a quad-core
processor card (QZDSP). Standard single processor cards use a single Sharc DSP,
quad-core processor cards use four Sharc DSPs cores with the potential to more
than double the power of the RZ6. All cards are networked in an optimized
multiprocessor architecture that features efficient onboard communication and memory
access. Two channels each of sigma-delta D/A and A/D converters provide a
dynamic range of up to 115 dB and sampling rates up to ~200 kHz.
The single device form factor incorporates
two channels of onboard programmable and
manual attenuation and can drive headphones and standard, magnetic, or electrostatic
speakers. It includes an onboard monitor speaker, two channels of amplification for
analog inputs, and 24 channels of digital I/O. XLR, audio jack, and BNC
connections are supported. Optionally, the RZ6 can be equipped with a fiber optic
input, allowing it to support a four channel Medusa preamplifier.
The RZ6-A base version starts with a single DSP and makes an excellent all-in-
one
psychoacoustics system or can be added to any system to add audio stimulus
generation to experiments.
The RZ6-A-P1 comes equipped with three DSPs for more processing power and
inclu
des the optional fiber optic input port, allowing it to serve as a BioAmp base
station for ABR and OAE studies.
Both configurations can be upgraded with additional single or quad-core DSP cards
(up
to a maximum of four DSP cards) for complex filtering and high frequency
applications.
