Adapter card allows PCIe designs to be transferred to XMC format

Technobox has introduced an XMC card that facilitates the development of XMC cards and/or related software. Using the PCIe-to-XMC adapter (P/N 4876) an engineer can adapt an existing PCIe design to an XMC site on a carrier or single-board computer. This is an especially useful tool for software development where an existing PCIe solution is to be ported to an XMC equivalent.

Side one of the 4876 has a pair of XMC connectors for the P15 and P16 interfaces that mate with the host XMC site.

A single 8x PCIe connector is located on the opposite side of the adapter, along with some headers and jumpers.

Two 64-pin headers are provided to permit probing of various XMC signals from the P15 and P16 connectors.

Pin assignments conform to VITA 42.0-2005 and VITA 42.10-200x.

For those who may want to probe them, a 7-pin header allows access to several XMC signals that do not pass over the PCIe bus (eg, GA0,1,2 I2C address of the EEPROM on the XMC card and MVMRO output from the carrier).

I2C and JTAG are accessible through a 16-pin header with jumpers.

Onboard LEDs provide indication of key XMC signals and power status.

The adaptor is equipped with a connector to accept external +12V power.

The 4876 lists for $895.00.

Quantity discounts are available.

The adapter is available for immediate shipment.
