Product Description
The PCI-60A IndustryPack
®
carrier board provides six IndustryPack slots on a single
desktop or industrial PCI slot card. The PCI-60A-8 provides an 8 MHz clock to all
IndustryPack slots. The PCI-60A-8/32 provides a clock that is software-selectable on a
per-slot basis and has an overall higher performance level.
The standard 8 MB memory space is available for each IndustryPack site. High-speed
32-bit PCI host address space permits desirable linear mapping and fixed address
partitions of memory, I/O, and ID spaces for each IndustryPack module.
The PCI-60A uses a PLX PCI9080 controller as the PCI bus interface chip and Altera
FPGA logic, which provides fully configurable PCI interrupt vector space. The PCI bus
interface handles 3.3V and 5.0 V signaling levels.
Each IndustryPack site has an adjacent 50-pin I/O connector for exiting the host system
through the PCI slot panel. One connector is accessible via the rear-panel. The standard
connector allows most of SBS transition modules and terminal blocks to be used.
The PCI-60A meets the PCI specification and conforms to the VITA-4 IndustryPack Logic
Interface Specification. This guarantees compatibility with a wide range of IndustryPacks.
The PCI-60A is backward compatible with the PCI-40A.
