LFG - PCI, PCIe, PMC, PC/104-Plus, cPCI
LFG in PCI Form Factor
The standard PCI format utilizing the 32 bit & 64-bit PCI bus as found in standard PCs and Apple Macs. This board can be used in desktop and embedded PCs, as well as for initial development/ feasibility before migrating to a more embedded solution based on PC/104-Plus or PMC/cPCI.
LFG in PCI Express Form Factor
The PCI Express format as found in today's PCs and Apple Macs. The next generation of high bandwidth bus, available in x1, x4, x8 & x16 lanes.
LFG in PMC Form Factor
A high end industrial embedded form factor. Used as a mezzanine board in 3U & 6U rack systems, such as VME, supporting both Intel and PowerPC architectures.
LFG in PC/104-Plus Form Factor
The PC/104-Plus LFG utilizes the PCI extension to the well established PC/104 (ISA) industrial form factor.
LFG in CompactPCI (cPCI) Form Factor
An embedded form factor in 3U and 6U formats, typically used in industrial and other embedded systems.

LFG4 - PCI Express, PC164
LFG4 in PCI Express Form Factor
The LFG4-PE1 can acquire video from up to 16 analogue video sources, and can capture the full resolution real-time video from up to 4 sources simultaneously. From a programmer's perspective the LFG4 is equivalent to four standard LFGs in a single PCI Express slot.
LFG4 in 64-bit/66MHz PCI Form Factor
The LFG4 capture card with support for 64-bit/66MHz and PCI-X busses. From a programmer's perspective the LFG4 is equivalent to four standard LFGs in a single PCI slot. LFG4 US Datasheet
LFG4-MM-PEI Multimedia Version
The LFG4-MM-PE1 is a single lane (x1) PCI Express board designed for remote monitoring and CCTV applications. It is supplied with standard video drivers for Windows and Mac OS X and is fully compatible with Video4Linux. This version is suitable to use with SecuritySpy as described below.
LFG4-MM-PC164 Multimedia Version
The Multimedia version of our LFG4 in 64-bit/66MHz PCI Form Factor. LFG4-MM-PCI64 US Datasheet.
