VPX6-215 Carrier Card Integrated Circuits

Features:

The VPX6-215 is offered in a range of ruggedization levels including air-cooled and conduction-cooled on a .8" pitch and a .85" pitch capable version with top and bottom covers.

The Interface Personality Module (IPM) site of the VPX6-215 further extends the I/O expansion capability of the VPX6-215. Any of the IPM functions provided by PCI devices can be supported on the VPX6-215. This includes dual MIL-STD-1553 channels, Serial ATA, and SCSI options.

The PMC/XMC sites of the VPX6-215 provide tremendous flexibility in the range of modules supported - from the latest generation high-performance XMC utilizing 8-lane PCIe links to older generation standard PMCs - including those that use 5V signaling.

Curtiss-Wright Controls Embedded Computing's VPX6-215 ExpressReach PMC/XMC and IPM carrier card provides great flexibility to system integrators needing to expand their VPX-based systems' I/O complement via standard PMC modules and/or XMC modules. A direct PCIe connection over the VPX backplane allows host processors access to a high-performance, low latency native PCIe interface to the VPX6-215 carrier card. To a host processor, PMC and XMC modules on the VPX6-215 appear as if they were on the host processor. A standard 4-lane PCIe interface provides a nominal data rate of 1GB in each direction.
