8305 Isolated Digital Input/Output Transition Board

  • VME64 extensions / Transition Board
  • Full EMC shielding and insertion/extraction handles
  • RP0 and RP2 connections
  • Provides 32 opto-isolated inputs and 32 opto-isolated output signals, four isolated output strobes and four isolated input strobes when connected to the VCB 8001 Carrier Board.
  • Connector pins allocated for compatibility with the 8301.
  • Four 50-way SCSI-2 sockets provide ease of connection to four groups of circuitry each with 16 inputs or outputs, input strobe and clock strobe.

Product Description

The VTB 8305 is a 6U (double height) VME rear I/O transition board, which provides opto-isolated inputs/outputs from the 8001 Carrier Board. It routes the signals from the carrier board to four 50-way SCSI sockets via the J0 and J2 connectors of the VME backplane. The board includes sites for fitting DC-DC converters for powering the plant side of the opto-isolators.

Construction

The unit is constructed to the VME64x standard, with EMC rear panel, injector/ejector handles, guide pin and slot keying, static discharge protection, hot swap capability, 5-row RP0 and RP2 connectors.

Signal Path

A rear-mounted transition card with four high-density 50-way [SCSI2] connectors transmits/receives all I/O signals and provides isolated connection. The signals connect to the main carrier board according to the VME64x Greenspring pinout for IP module carriers .

SCSI Connectors
Connector 1 (lowest connector) Inputs 1-16, I/PStr1(+/-), O/PStr1(+/-)
Connector 2 Inputs 17-32, I/PStr2(+/-), O/PStr2(+/-)
Connector 3 Outputs 33-48, I/PStr3(+/-), O/PStr3(+/-)
Connector 4 (top connector) Outputs 49-64, I/PStr4(+/-), O/PStr4(+/-)
