|
| PMC compatible slots |
2 PMC Slots provided.

|
| Clocks |
Secondary side can operate at standard PCI and PCI-X rates with automatic or manual over-ride definitions. Bridge supports 133, 100, 66, 50, 33, and 25 MHz operation.
|
| |
|
| Access Width |
Standard PCI byte lanes supported for byte, word and long access dependent on installed PMC. 64 or 32 bit operation is supported by Bridge.
|
| |
|
| Software Interface |
[IDT] Tundra Tsi384 Bridge register definitions. The bridge does not require any user set-up. PMC register definitions as defined by installed hardware. |
|
|
| Interrupts |
INTA, INTB, INTC, INTD routed to bridge from both PMC positions. Bridge converts PMC level interrupts to PCIe encoding. Most PMC´s use one Interrupt level [INTA]. User switches allow independent mapping of the PMC interrupt request to PCIe encoding level and cross-connected or not. Position 0 is usually mapped to INTA and position 1 to INTB. Interrupts from position 1 can be cross-connected to position 0 for local interrupt processing.
|
| |
|
| Power |
Local power supplies provide +5(10A), +12, -12V(4A), +3V(10A) available to PMC´s with adequate +12V input current. Supplies use industrial temperature components, and spreading power planes to manage the thermal load. It is recommended to use the FAN option for high power requirement PMC´s.
|
| |
|
| VIO |
PMC VIO set to 3.3V
|
| |
|
| Thermal |
PCIeBPMCX2 has cut-outs to support increased airflow over the PMC´s component side. Optional fan(s) with two mounting positions per PMC position are available and recommended for many applications.
|
| |
|
| IO Interface |
PMC Bezel IO supported at PCI bracket for position 1. Jn4 "user IO" supported with either SCSI or DIN connectors at both positions. See Panduit for mate [120-964-455] or standard SCSI II connector. Optional support for Ethernet and Serial ports from PrPMC devices.
|
| |
|
| Specification |
PCI, PCI-X, PICMG 2.15, PCIe specification compliant
|
| |
|
| |
|
| LED´s |
+3V, +5V, 1.2V, +12V, -12V and Busmode 1 [present] for each position. LED´s on voltages illuminated via monitoring circuits which check that the voltages are within tolerance. |
| |
|
| DIP switch |
3 - 8 position switches are provided to allow for configuration control and to select the primary and secondary clocking options. |
| |
|
| JTAG |
PMC JTAG connections for position 0 are tied to a labeled header. Add -JTAG to part number for this option to be installed. |
| Speed |
PCIeBPMCX2 offers PCI-X and PCI speeds plus a second PMC slot for designs with more than one PMC. For local processing the rear position can be used for a PrPMC with the IO or signal processing in the front position. The Host computer can set-up operation, and then the PrPMC can use the local bus for high speed data transfer with second PMC. |
| |
|
| Price |
Make use of existing PMC designs in PCIe applications without paying for the expense of a new design and layout. Save PCIe slots with two PMC´s in one location. Use multiple PCIeBPMCX2šs in parallel without overloading your host processor to reduce system cost. Quantity discounts are available.
|
| |
|
| Ease of Use |
PCIeBPMCX2 is easy to use. A plug and play interface to the PMC sites. The Bridge can be configured with the user switches on board; eliminating any requirement for special software for the bridge itself. In most cases the switches can be left with the factory settings. The manual contains clear directions for switch options. The engineering kit provides a good starting point for a new user.
