Application Information

The TVME230 is a 6U Expansion Card for VMEbus CPU’s

with a PCI Expansion Connector like the TVME8240A,

TVME8300, TVME8400, MVME5500, MVME5100,

MVME3100, MVME2300 or MVME2400. It provides

access to four single-size or two double-size IndustryPack

(IP) modules via the PCI Expansion Connector. This adds

200 additional I/O lines to the CPU, used to build modular,

flexible and cost effective I/O solutions for applications in

process control, medical systems, telecommunication and

traffic control.

For improved EMI protection, four HD50 SCSI-2 type

connectors are mounted in the EMI front panel of the

TVME230 and provide access to all IP I/O lines. Status

indicators for IP access, +5V and +/-12V are provided in

the front panel.

As an order option, the TVME230 is available with

standard VME handles or IEEE1101 handles.

The TVME230 can operate with 3.3V and 5.0V PCI I/O

signaling voltage.

All IP interrupt request lines are mapped to PCI INTA. For

fast interrupt source detection, the TVME230 provides a

special IP interrupt status register.

The IP power lines are fuse protected by self healing fuses

and RF filtered. The operating temperature range is -40°C

to +85°C.
