Features and Advantages of 5565 Reflective Memory

Features:

(1) VMIC reflective memory is a technology that provides data transmission between interconnected computers via a local area network, increasingly adopted by real-time network designers. The concept of VMIC reflective memory real-time LAN is simple: design a network memory board to achieve memory-to-memory communication in distributed systems without software overhead. Each node machine is equipped with a reflective memory card featuring dual-port memory. Various software layers can read from and write to this memory. When data is written to the memory of one machine's reflective memory card, it is automatically transmitted via fiber optics to the memory of other reflective memory cards on the network. Typically, within a few hundred nanoseconds, all reflective memory cards' memory will contain the same data. Members access data by simply accessing the local reflective memory card's memory.
(2) The reflective memory card - Real-Time Simulation Technology Network, in collaboration with domestic universities and research institutes including the 8th Institute of CETC, the 5th Academy of Aerospace, Beihang University, Beijing Institute of Technology, Nanjing University of Science and Technology, Northwestern Polytechnical University, and Harbin Institute of Technology, has conducted a series of application research, testing, and PMC5565 evaluations. Particularly in hardware-in-the-loop real-time simulation systems, reflective memory cards have become standard. Their principles are easy to understand, usage is simple, they offer strong anti-interference capabilities, high real-time performance, support interrupt transmission and interrupts, require minimal software development code, have strong expansion capabilities, and numerous application cases. They shorten system development cycles, reduce personnel costs, enhance system robustness, free software developers from complex communication protocols, and eliminate concerns about bandwidth and uncertain delays for large-scale data transmission. Reflective memory cards are also used in industrial control sectors including rail transit, metallurgy, and power system simulation.

(3) With increasing chip integration, reflective memory cards have also improved in integration, offering stable and reliable products with transmission distances up to 10KM (single-mode). In collaboration with the 8th Institute of CETC, we promote domestic research on real-time communication technology for reflective memory networks, offering reflective memory solutions based on PCI bus reflective memory cards with 128-512MB onboard memory, 2.5G transmission rates, compatibility with GE5565 series reflective memory cards, providing complete driver source code and application example code, and on-site technical support. After extensive testing in some hardware-in-the-loop simulation systems, they are now delivered for use. Future plans include PMC interface and CPCI interface reflective memory cards, with options for customized development, integrating reflective memory modules into customer boards.

(4) Additionally, the reflective memory card - Real-Time Simulation Technology Network offers fault injection modules, signal processing modules, encoder interface modules, and adapter card products for use in hardware-in-the-loop simulation systems for user convenience.

Advantages:

(1) Capability to achieve remote interconnection

As simulation experiments increase in complexity, remote interconnection of equipment across multiple buildings and laboratories is required. Single-mode fiber and fiber hubs connect distant laboratory equipment, with single-mode fiber supporting transmission distances up to 10km. For laboratories within 300m, multimode fiber enables close-range transmission, balancing performance and cost.

(2) Capability to conduct multiple experiments in parallel

In urgent testing scenarios, multiple experiments need to be conducted simultaneously. The integrated test control system can manage various hubs, quote PMC5565 reflective memory cards, and segment the entire network into several isolated sub-networks. PMC5565 reflective memory card manufacturers can conduct tests concurrently, meeting the needs of parallel experiments across multiple laboratories.

(3) Capability to isolate and troubleshoot faults

The integrated test control system monitors the connection and operational status of devices at each hub port, remotely controls and bypasses any node in the fiber optic network. During fault排查, it is easy to connect or disconnect a node from the network, effectively improving troubleshooting efficiency and quickly isolating faulty nodes.
