cPCI300

Overview

The cPCI300Q is a quad site module carrier developed to provide access to a TIM Modules over the CompactPCI bus running at 33MHz with a 32-bit data bus.
The card has an 'on-board' JTAG ACT8990 controller. This allows Code Composer Studio and 3L Diamond applications to be used to debug/upload software to Modules.
A single buffered comm-port with conflict protection is available on the chassis front panel. This has the versatility to access any of four com-ports from the Modules.
The main connection to the CompactPCI bus is via the Module's Global Bus. A single comm-port is mapped to the CompactPCI bus providing support for application boot and data transfer.
A 1 M Byte of SRAM is mapped on to the Global Bus and can be accessed by the Modules as a global resource or by the CompactPCI Bridge.
A 3.3 volt supply is available at the fixing pillars for the Modules. This supply will be taken from the CompactPCI edge connector.
An 'on-board' 200MB/sec Digital Bus interface to the CompactPCI bridge allows the card to be interfaced to other 200MB/sec Digital Bus standard modules.
PCI Extensions for Instrumentation (PXI) signals are utilised allow multiple cPCI300Q's to be synchronised in a system.
