VPX Bus Carrier Cards for one XMC and four AcroPack® Modules, Expansion Plane Connection
|
The VPX4520 carrier card provides a simple and cost-effective solution for interfacing one XMC and four AcroPack modules to a VPX computer system.
Connect to the OpenVPX™ compatible system via Expansion plane for a direct PCIe connection over the VPX backplane. This allows host processors access to a high-performance, low latency interconnect to the AcroPack and XMC modules on the carrier card.
By inserting AcroPack or XMC industrial I/O developers can now leverage hundreds of available functions currently unavailable in a VPX platform.
These carriers are ideal for high-performance industrial, defense, scientific research, and telephony systems requiring high-speed I/O expansion. The VPX4520 is available in two versions: air-cooled and conduction-cooled.
The VPX4520 is a member of a 6U OpenVPX mezzanine carrier card family that supports a simple and cost-effective solution for interfacing XMC or AcroPack modules to OpenVPX computer systems.
