PlusIO • Intel® Atom™ E39xx Processor (APL-I SoC)
CompactPCI® PlusIO (PICMG 2.30) is a
standard for rear I/O across J2, specified by the
PICMG®. High speed signal lines (PCI Express®,
SATA, Gigabit Ethernet and USB) are passed
from the PC6-TANGO through the special UHM
connector to the backplane, for usage either on
a PlusIO rear I/O transition module, or
CompactPCI® Serial card slots.
CompactPCI® Serial (PICMG CPCIS.0) defines a
completely new card slot, based on PCI
Express®, SATA, Gigabit Ethernet and USB
serial data lines. On a hybrid backplane, both
card styles can reside, CompactPCI® and
CompactPCI® Serial, with the PC6-TANGO in
the middle as system slot controller for both
backplane segments.
The PC6-TANGO is provided with a set of local
expansion interface connectors, which can be
optionally used to attach a mezzanine side
board, for additional mass storage or front I/O.
The C48-M2 mezzanine module e.g. is
equipped with two M.2 SATA Solid State Drives
(SSD), and fits on the PC6-TANGO while
maintaining the 4HP front panel profile.
