Packaging information
The CPC505 module is supplied in in a box 350
х260х70 mm in size. The packed weight of the
device is max. 1.050kg.
Note
Retain the anti-static packaging and consumer packaging of the module in its original condition
until the end of the warranty period.
2.5 System expansion capabilities
The number of interfaces routed from the CPC505 module can be increased by
▪ installing the XMC/PMC expansion module;
▪ connecting the RIO587 module.
2.5.1 PMC/XMC modules
The PMC/XMC interface of the CPC505 board supports XMC/PMC expansion modules, which
makes it possible to easily and flexibly adapt CPC505 to the requirements of different applications
(see subparagraph
3.2.1 PMC/XMC Interface
). One possible expansion module is the MIC1901
(please, see
Annex B
).
2.5.2 Rear I/O expansion module RIO587
The RIO587 module expands functionality and I/O capabilities of the CPC505 when installed at the
rear of the system chassis. See Annex A for a description of the RIO587 module.

Characteristics
Note
Operating in a system slot as a
system master board (System
Master)
The CPC505 module is designed to be used as a system master. As such, it
can communicate with up to 7 peripheral boards via a 64-bit 33/66 MHz bus. At
the same time, the CPC505 can also operate in a peripheral slot, in which case
the CPC505 is connected to the PCI bus via
a “non-transparent” bridge.
Operating in a peripheral
system slot
When installed in the peripheral slot of the system, the CPC505 module is
connected to the PCI bus through the “non-transparent” bridge. The CPC505 is
powered by the backplane and can operate with a Rear I/O board as well as in
packet switching mode (if that mode is supported by the system) with support
for up to two Gigabit Ethernet channels.
