The AcPC8635A is a non-intelligent slave board that interfaces two IP modules to the CompactPCI® (cPCI) bus. All 100 I/O points are brought out the front connectors for easy cable access.
Acromag’s carrier boards provide full data access to the IP module’s I/O, ID, interrupt and memory spaces. With full access to the IP module’s programmable registers, you can easily configure and control their operation from the CompactPCI bus.
Up to two interrupt requests are supported for each IP module. All board interrupts are mapped to PCI bus INTA# signal.
Individual passive filters on each IP power supply line provide optimum filtering and noise isolation between the IP modules and the carrier board.
