Test Adapters support mulitple boards/tests on single slot.July 24, 2009 -
CompactPCI Test Adapters feature plug-in connections on 3 sides, optimizing access, and enable measurement and testing of CompactPCI assemblies in 3U and 6U Eurocard format. Modern BRIDGE design permits up to 3 CompactPCI cards and 1 standard PCI card to be inserted into 1 CompactPCI slot via test adapter. Unit can be used with CompactPCI boards up to 220 mm depth. It also offers Windows support and detects PCI devices via standard PCI BIOS with BIOS extension.

CompactPCI Test Adaptors
Test Adapters for CompactPCI boards reduce development time.
Adapters allow multiple boards and tests in a single CompactPCI slot.
Hartmann Electronic, the specialist in backplane and systems technology, has introduced two new CompactPCI Test Adapters.
Measurement and testing of CompactPCI assemblies in both 3U and 6U Eurocard format is greatly facilitated. Optimal access to the test board is guaranteed because the adaptor has plug-in connections on 3 sides. The test board is secured by the front and lateral guides.
The modern BRIDGE design permits up to 3 CompactPCI cards and one standard PCI card to be inserted into one CompactPCI slot via the test adapter. This system allows system developers to implement a large number of tests while having access to the large number of PCI boards available to the market worldwide.
The test adapter can be used in systems with CompactPCI boards up to 220mm depth.
Complete Windows support provided by this product facilitates fast system integration. Additional drivers are not needed. The PCI devices are detected by a standard PCI BIOS with BIOS extension.
Further advantages include:
- Full plug-and-play support
- Automatic voltage adaption to 3.3/5V backplane V(I/O)
- Secondary V(I/O) adjustable by means of a jumper
- Supply voltage for bridge operation of 5V (single) from backplane
- LED indicators for all secondary voltages
- All operating voltages can be separated for current consumption measurement
- Simple adaptation to different interrupt tables by means of jumpers
- JTAG support
- High-resistance switching of PCI bus signals via the bridge
- EMC-compliant design
- 8 GND test points facilitate measurement on the test board
- Guided insertion of test boards from 3 sides
Options include:
- 3U CompactPCI test adapter, 4 HP 32-bit, Rear I/O connector present in 2 slots
- 3U CompactPCI test adapter, 4 HP 32-bit, additional rear I/O signals traced to the front
- 6U CompactPCI test adapter, 4 HP 64-bit, all 315 I/O signals can be individually separated with jumpers
