Industry Pack I/OIndustry Pack (IP) Modules modules plug into connectors on carrier boards for VME, CompactPCI®, PCI, and other computer buses. They enable quick and easy develop-ment of low cost, custom I/O boards.

Acromag offers more than 100 IP modules and carrier cards to meet your I/O needs.

CompactPCI I/OThe AcPC series features 3U boards that plug into a CompactPCI (cPCI) card cage. Each board has a dedicated function, or set of functions. This offers a cost-effective I/O solution for applications with modest I/O requirements that do not need to preserve the availability of backplane card slots.

Carrier CardsMezzanine carrier cards hold up to five Industry Pack or up to two PMC modules. Select from carriers for VME, PCI, and CompactPCI bus systems.

A variety of models offer front or rear I/O connections and standard or extended tem-perature ratings. Conduction-cooling is also available.

FPGA ModulesUser-configurable FPGA I/O modules in PMC and Industry Pack formats offer the ability to create custom I/O boards by downloading your own instruction sets into the FPGA. Use your application program to control on-board analog or digital I/O for hardware simu-lation, in-circuit diagnostics, protocol conversion and more.

PMC I/O ModulesPMC modules plug into sockets on VMEbus or CompactPCI processor boards or carrier cards. They provide a secure and easy method for adding I/O capabilities to a system.

Acromag PMC modules comply with PCI local bus specs for compatibility with hundreds of vendors offering CPU, DSP, and carrier boards.

PCI I/O BoardsAcromag’s APC series of half-length PCI boards plug direct-ly into a standard desktop or ruggedized computer crates. Each board has a fixed I/O function, or mix of functions. This offers a more economical solution for applications that do not require the flexibility or high channel density made possible with mezzanine modules and carrier cards.

MEZZANINE CARRIER CARDS


Acromag carrier

cards provide an

easy-to-use method

for interfacing I/O on

mezzanine modules

when slots are not

available on SBCs.

12

Mezzanine modules are a very effective method for interfacing I/O signals to an embedded computer system. However, slots may not always be available on the processor board. In this case, a carrier board with slots for up to five Industry Pack or two PMC modules is an ideal solution.

Choose from a variety of configurations with front or rear I/O access. Boards with multiple mezzanine slots allow mixing of functions to create custom I/O cards with extremely high channel density. Third-party IP and PMC modules are supported offering virtually unlimited possibilities.

Acromag carrier cards are non-intelligent slave boards that act simply as an adapt-er to route I/O signals to and from the bus. Some carrier cards offer support for interrupts. Carriers are available for VME, PCI, and CompactPCI bus systems.

To simplify deployment, Acromag provides a full line of transition modules, cables and termination panels. Software support libraries are also available for faster setup.

Benefits• Industry-standard IP or PMC module interface

PMC Module Carriers: - CompactPCI 3U/6U, conduction-cooled- PCI half-length

• Accepts IP and PMC modules from other manufacturers

• Front or rear panel connectors for field I/O

• Supports interrupt channels

• 32/64-bit 33/66 MHz PCI interface or 64-bit 133 MHz PCI-X interface

• Accommodates 8MHz and 32MHz IP clocks

• Provides individually fused and filtered power line to each module

• Supports both 5V and 3.3V signalling

• C libraries of function routines for VxWorks, QNX, Linux, and Windows operating systems

HARDWARE ACCESSORIES

Acromag termination

products simplify the

connection of field

signal cabling to save

you time and effort.


Termination and cablingAcromag provides a broad selection of hard-ware accessories to sim-plify the use of our I/O boards. This collection of termination panels, cables, and adapters facilitate field wiring and cable connections between boards within the card cage.

Termination panels pro-vide screw terminals for easy field signal wiring. A cable connector provides a clean interface to the I/O board or mezzanine module. Many termina-tion panels have a compact footprint and mount neatly on a DIN rail strip. Other panels are designed for mounting directly onto a standard 19-inch rack.

Transition modules pro-vide a solution for con-trolling the location of your cabling within the card cage. These adapters repeat field I/O connec-tions on Acromag’s VME, VME64, and cPCI carrier boards for front or rear exit from the card cage.

Acromag also provides a large selection of signal cables to complete the connection of the field wiring on the termination panel to the I/O board.

SOFTWARE SUPPORT

Function Routine C LibrariesThese software develop-ment tools simplify the integration of Acromag I/O boards with your application programs.

Acromag offers a library of function routines targeted for VxWorks and QNX operating systems. These routines and example programs help you develop the interface between Acromag I/O boards and your applica-tion program. C source code is included for easy customization.

DLL drivers simplify the interface between the I/O boards and your Windows-based appli-cation program. This package provides DLL driver level support for Acromag’s complete line of PMC, PCI and cPCI products. Also, the C source code demonstra-tion programs provide easy-to-use tools to test operation of your I/O modules.

A free example appli-cation programming interface is available for download on Acromag’s website to assist Linux users. This software provides I/O function routines for Industry Pack modules and carriers. Includes C source code.
