Industrial / Specific Purpose Computers
Single-Slot, 3U cPCI Card offers multifunctional expansion.
Press Release Summary:
Dual-module 75C2 eliminates complexity and size constraints of using multiple, independent, single-function cards. Along with multiple channels of ARINC 429/575, RS-422/485/232, and D/S Converter, solution accommodates reference generator functions as well as multichannel modules for synchro/resolver measurement, LVDT measurement, A/D, D/A, discrete I/O, TTL I/O, transceiver I/O, and RTD. Continuous background testing is transparent, and each function is programmable at channel level.

Single-Slot, Multi-Function, 3U cPCI Card Upgraded with Additional Functionality
ARINC 429/575, RS-422/485/232, D/S Converter, and Reference Generator functions added to A/D, D/A, S/D, LVDT/RVDT and I/O
Bohemia NY -- North Atlantic Industries (NAI) has announced an upgrade to the functionality of its single slot, 2-module, multi-function, 3U cPCI card. This universal card eliminates the complexity and size constraints of using multiple, independent, single-function cards. The 75C2 can accommodate up to two independent function modules. ARINC 429/575 (6-channels), RS-422/485/232 (4-channnels), D/S Converter (3-channels), and Reference Generator functions have recently been added to its library of available modules. Other available function modules include Synchro/Resolver Measurement (4-channels), LVDT Measurement (4-channels), A/D (10-channels), D/A (10-channels), Discrete I/O (16-channels), TTL I/O (16-channels), Transceiver I/O (11-channels), and RTD (6-channels). The interchangeable multi-function design of the 75C2 provides extensive diagnostics and is available in both commercial temperature range and severe environment, industrial temperature range.
For increased flexibility, each of the functions of the 75C2 is highly programmable at the channel level. Continuous background (BIT) testing is performed on all functions and channels. This testing is totally transparent to the user, requires no programming, and doesn't interfere with the normal operation of the card. The 75C2 is ideally suited for military and commercial programs, including airborne, shipboard, ground mobile and C3I applications. Its interchangeable modules increase functional density, and reduce power consumption, size, and cost of the overall system.
The 75C2 is available with operating temperature ranges of -40°C to +85°C and 0°C to +70°C. Conduction cooled versions with wedgelocks are also available. Pricing for 100 pieces starts at $1995. Delivery is 10 to 12 weeks ARO.
"The 75C2 provides our customers with a flexible, single-slot, multi-function, 3U cPCI card that reduces size, weight, power and cost," said Lino Massafra, VP of Sales and Marketing at NAI. "They particularly like the wide range of commonly used functions that are available."
