Sunnyvale, CA — PCI-SYSTEMS Inc. a leading supplier of conduction cooled systems, today announced a new add on mezzanine for their OpenVPX 3U and 6U extender test products.
This 300.504 mezzanine can be used with PCI Systems 3U and 6U extender products.
The transmit and receive signals (32 lanes each) are driven and conditioned by TI redriver chips. Adjustment can be made to equalization and de-emphasis.
The chips used automatically detect and adapt to Gen1, Gen2 and Gen3 data rates.
Provision to attach an analyzer is made on the board.
The PCIe 100MHz reference clock source can be from the host system or from the on-board clock.
All settings can be made via DIP switches.
Each lane can be switched off, amplified by a redriver or switched straight through.
This allows the usage of ANY OpenVPX profiles where all kinds of different signals are routed on P1 and P2.
An electronic software configuration tool is included.
Key Features:
• 32 lane receive and 32 lanes transmit
• Gen 1, 2, 3 speeds
• Compatible to ANY VPX and OpenVPX profiles
• Active redriver channels
• Each lane can be “feed through”
• All lanes can be switched “off” individually
• Local voltage regulators for low noise voltage rails
• LEDs for each VPX voltage rail
• -40°C to 85°C Operating Temperature
Custom versions are available.
PCI-SYSTEMS Inc. develops and manufactures COTS and CUSTOM intelligent VPX Systems, Power supply, CPU and peripheral boards as well as advanced mechanical design solutions in the US and Europe for many platforms that provide precision control of robotic and automated equipment in the semiconductor, medical and industrial equipment markets as well as for ruggedized embedded OEM applications in airborne and defense applications.
