About MDS

Momentum Data Systems is an established and highly respected supplier of DSP hardware, software and custom engineering solutions. Founded in 1987 by Dr Jerry Purcell, Momentum merged with Dr. Lester Longley's Zola Technologies in 1994 which allowed us to expand from a software and consulting-based company into one that could offer a full range of DSP hardware solutions. Momentum Data Systems unites a highly talented team of engineers with specialist expertise in digital and analog systems design, DSP and software development. Momentum’s DSP products are sold worldwide through a network of technical representatives.
