Two-Slot 3U VPX Development Platform for Conduction-Cooled Modules with RTM I/O
The XPand1007 system from
Extreme Engineering Solutions, is a low-cost development platform for conduction-cooled 3U VPX cards. It supports up to two 0.8 in. or 1.0 in. 3U VPX boards and utilizes RTMs to simplify I/O access and support rapid system prototyping. The XPand1007 can be configured as two I/O isolated slots, with all I/O from the payload passed to the RTM. Optionally, the XPand1007 can be configured with Dual Fat Pipe (DFP) J1 interconnects, with the remaining I/O from the payload passed to the RTM. Power and reset LEDs are provided for system status. A momentary push button is provided for reset, and a switch is provided to enable DC power.
Power is provided via the included 3U VPX VITA 62 power supply. An included external XPm9001 power supply plugs into a standard 120 V wall outlet to produce 28 V DC to power the VITA 62 supply.
