Technology

Founded in 1987, Sheldon Instruments Inc. is a leading supplier of DSP based solutions for real time applications in test and measurement, digital control, instrumentation and automation systems. Sheldon Instruments products are available on a wide range of platforms, including PCI, CompactPCI, PCI-104, PMC and embedded standalone using Gbit Ethernet and USB.

DSP applications for all these platforms can be programmed using traditional compiler/linker tools for custom application development using Code Composer Studio, or for turnkey applications the DSP can be easily programmed with two familiar products: either LabVIEW or Visual Basic. The product line offering this is called QuX, and its goal is simple: to allow a novice and expert alike to create the most sophisticated real-time DSP applications without spending a fortune or suffering the downtime associated with learning capricious, non-mainstream tools. Since its introduction in 1991, QuX has evolved from a simple set of 'point by point' processing functions, targeted mainly for real time motion control, to a full fledged multi-tasking, real-time OS platform that also includes the ability to easily program multiple threads of 'point by point' and 'block' processing routines into a DSP carrier card fitted with a multifunction I/O daughter module.
