• Three AcroPack or mini-PCIe module slots support any combination of I/O functions
• PCI Express version 2.1 compliant
• Fused +1.5V, +3.3V, +5V, +12V, and -12V DC power is provided. A fuse is present on each supply line serving each AcroPack module
• Air-cooled and conduction-cooled options
The VPX4500 is a 3U VPX carrier for Acromag AcroPack (AP) mezzanine board modules. The carrier board provides a modular approach to system assembly since each carrier can be populated with any combination of analog input/output, digital input/output, communication, AP modules. The modularity allows the user to create a board which is customized to the application. This saves money and space; a single carrier board populated with AP modules may replace several dedicated function VPX boards. The VPX4500 carrier board provides impressive functionality at low cost.
Model VPX4500E-LF is an air-cooled product that supports three AcroPack sites. Two of the sites provide field I/O connections through front panel mounted 50 pin shielded connectors. The third site provides field I/O connections through the VPX backplane.
Model VPX4500-CC-LF is a conduction-cooled product that supports three AcroPack sites. Two of the sites provide field I/O connections through 50 pin ribbon cable connectors. The third site provides field I/O connections to the VPX backplane.
Model VPX4500 RTM LF is a rear transition module used with both the VPX4500 E LF and the VPX4500 CC LF carriers to provide access to the slot C AcroPack field I/O signals.
The AcroPack® product line updates our popular Industry Pack I/O modules with a PCIe interface format. This tech-refresh design offers a compact size, low-cost I/O, the same functionality and memory map of the existing Industry Pack modules.
Select I/O modules from Acromag’s offering or use some third-party mPCIe compliant module.
