Custom Solutions

HI-REL HI-REL
A supplier of radar systems was hit with an EOL notice from their supplier of A/D converters and were in urgent need of a drop-in replacement. Our design was a form and fit solution that improved the overall accuracy of their system. While an equivalent part was the only requirement, the Datel A/D product was a functional upgrade.

Medical & Digital Imaging Medical Imaging
A leading manufacturer of FDA approved medical imaging systems was using a high-resolution A/D. It was discovered that certain conditions could produce an impurity in the image. The Datel engineering team diagnosed the condition and implemented a design modification that eliminated the impurity, enabling production to continue, without requiring time-consuming FDA re-approval. We are now the preferred supplier of single, dual and quad channel data converter products and the first point of contact on all new designs.

Aerospace Aerospace
Housed in a hermetically sealed, low weight package, we designed a multi-channel high-resolution, fully tested DAS with a precise input range and timing requirements for manufacturer of aircraft engines and space propulsion systems.

CCD Image Processing CCD Image Processing
How to integrate a correlated double sampling circuit (CDS) and a very low noise, high resolution A/D in a small package. This was the requirement of a manufacturer of high-end, scientific Digital CCD Cameras. Our low-cost, low-power, integrated solution is fully tested over temperature and includes the features of a user-configurable input stage and selectable bandwidth for lower noise performance.

Security & Defense Security & Defense
A security and defense systems supplier found that the clock required for a precision D/A converter was adversely affecting the RF circuit. Our pin-to-pin solution did not require a clock signal, eliminating the interference problem, and requiring no changes to the printed circuit board.

Radar Radar
A commercial radar system manufacturer required a solution not yet available on the market: a high-slew rate input stage, low noise sampling A/D with no clock latency delays. Our custom solution is still used in their multi-tracking high-precision radar system.


DATEL, Inc. is a leading supplier of High Precision Data Acquisition Components and DC to DC converters. Our leadership status in high-performance data acquisition components is unchallenged, driven in large part by our engineering expertise to develop solutions with outstanding electrical performance, small packaging, low power consumption and ease of use. These products employ five basic technologies: monolithic IC, thin-film hybrid, thick-film hybrid, SMT technologies and discrete component circuit.

DATEL's DC DC converter product line includes non-isolated point-of-loads dc/dc, switching regulators as well as a complete line of industry standard brick packages (Sixteenth-Brick, Eighth-Brick, Quarter-Brick, Half-Brick and Full-Brick) and railway dc-dc converters.
