DCD trajectory files

NAMD produces DCD trajectory files in the same format as X-PLOR and CHARMm. The DCD files are single precision binary FORTRAN files, so are portable between computer architectures. The exact format of these files is very ugly but supported by a wide range of analysis and display programs.
