The Acromag APCe7020 board interfaces two AcroPack mezzanine modules to a PCI Express bus on a PC-based computer system.
Two AcroPack module slots give you the freedom to mix a variety of I/O functions (A/D, D/A, digital in, digital out, serial I/O, etc.) on a single board. Or, combine modules of the same type for almost one hundred channels on a single card. Either way, the APCe7020 saves your precious card slots and reduces your costs.
This tech-refresh design offers a compact size, low-cost I/O, the same functionality and memory map of the existing Industry Pack modules.
A unique carrier and site number can be set for each AcroPack site by a DIP switch. This provides the capability to distinguish a particular AcroPack module from others when multiple instances of the same module are used in a system.
A standard 14-pin Xilinx JTAG programming header is provided for programming and debugging the FPGA on some AcroPack modules. The JTAG ports of the two AcroPack modules are daisy-chained.
Designed for COTS applications these PCIe carrier boards deliver high-reliability, and high-performance at a low cost.
AcroPack carriers are ROHS compliant and ideal for military, defence, automation, aerospace, scientific, and development lab industries.
