  • Data Integrity: 8KB x 8 NVRAM with replaceable battery backup.
  • Diagnostics: Onboard debug monitor with self-test capabilities.

Application Scenarios
Ideal for industrial process control, automated test equipment (ATE), and railway signaling systems.

Performance Parameters

  • PCI Bus: 64-bit PCI Mezzanine Connector.
  • Network: Ethernet with 32-bit PCI local bus DMA.
  • Storage: 8-bit or 16-bit fast SCSI-2 bus interface.

Material Composition
Multi-layer industrial PCB with gold-plated VME edge connectors for superior signal integrity.

Structural Characteristics
Standard 6U VME dimensions with a front panel featuring physical switches and diagnostic LEDs.

Working Principle
The firmware performs power-on self-tests, initializes the ECC memory, and loads the operating system from flash or network.

Installation Requirements
Insert into a compatible VME chassis, ensuring P1/P2 alignment. Secure with ejector handles.

Usage Precautions
Avoid exposure to high humidity or corrosive gases. Always power down the chassis before installation.
