FreeForm/Express S6
FPGA development board
Connect Tech’s FreeForm/Express S6 is a reconfigurable computing platform that is based on the Xilinx Spartan‑6 FPGA featuring integrated PCI Express blocks, advanced memory support, and 3.125 Gbps low-power transceivers. The FreeForm/Express S6 FPGA development board includes an industry-standard FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC) connector, which provides a flexible I/O interface for future scaling and customization. The PCIe bus bandwidth ensures high speed communication between the host system and the application’s interfaces.
A wide range of available FMC modules adds interfaces such as ADC and digital video, which makes FreeForm/Express S6 a highly versatile platform for system development. Ideally suited for applications requiring both prototyping and field deployment including real-time data acquisition, high performance video processing, and software defined radio. FreeForm/Express S6 is optimized for embedded processor designs, supporting development with Xilinx’s MicroBlaze.
ADG010
PCI Express (PCIe) Burn-in Rack Adapter
This circuit board allows the burn-in of up to 10x 15W or 25W PCI Express cards simultaneously without the need for a dedicated computer system.
Thick copper construction maintains low temperatures even for very high loads, while individually fused and filtered slots protect boards from surges.
Binding posts are included to allow the connection of monitoring equipment, bench power supplies or a DMM.
Mini PCIe Carrier
Mini PCIe Carrier
Connect Tech’s Single and Dual Mini-PCIe Carriers easily enable the integration of a Mini-PCIe Card into a PCIe/104 or PCI/104-Express System. Fully compatible with any Mini-PCIe Peripheral.
These Carriers expand the capabilities of an existing PCIe/104 or PCI/104-Express System, with the ability to add features such as WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth, CAN Bus, and/or Serial Interfaces. The Mini-PCIe Carriers excel in rugged environments and handle a wide Temperature Range of −40°C to +85°C.
ADG095
XMC to PCIe/104 Adapter
Connect Tech’s XMC to PCIe/104 Adapter Board is an engineering tool for the purpose of enabling rapid development of systems requiring the use of next generation form factor peripheral cards. This adapter supports adding VITA 42 XMC cards to a Type 1 PCIe/104 system.
PCIe/104 - M.2
PCIe/104 to M.2 Adapter
Connect Tech’s PCIe/104 to M.2 Adapter allows for the implementation of two M.2 next generation form factor expansion slots. Supported cards are, based on configuration, B, B&M, E, and A&E key type.
Quad Mini PCIe/mSATA
PCIe/104 Quad Mini PCIe/mSATA
Connect Tech’s Quad Mini PCIe/mSATA board supports up to four mini PCIe modules simultaneously for applications in the PCIe/104 small form factor embedded market place.
This product is ideal for a wide array of applications. The ADG078 and ADG080 support any «Half» or «Full» Mini PCIe/mSATA product on the market, while the ADG087 supports any «Full» Mini PCIe/mSATA. This allows for maximum flexibility while keeping the PCIe/104 stack as small as possible.
ADG054
PCIe/104 to PCI-104 Adapter
Expand the capabilities of your PCIe/104 systems, by incorporating PCI-104 cards into your stack. Connect Tech’s PCIe/104 to PCI-104 Adapter enables users to add four PCI-104 compatible boards into either a stack up or stack down configuration.
With a full PCIe/104 pass-through, the use of PCI/104 — Express cards is also possible. The Adapter also accesses the PCIe x1 Bank, leaving the x16 Bank open for more intensive operations.
Standard Usage Guide
For standard usage of the ADG054, simply insert into a host system’s PCIe/104 slot. Connect the desired PCI-104 or PCI/104-Express cards to the Adapter. Remember to set the unique ID for each of the selected cards and that no two boards share the same unique ID.
The LEDs on the Adapter indicate three important things. Each of the three blue LEDs represent a power rail that is part of the PCIe/104 stack. The Red PWR LED displays that the on board PLX8112 chip is being properly powered. Finally, the Red LINK LED displays that the board has successfully connected on the PCIe Lane.
For stack assembly, ensure that proper Electro Static Discharge (ESD) practices are followed.
ADG053
COM Express Bus Extender
Connect Tech’s COM Express Bus Extender provides relief to small batch COM Express testing cycles. Designed to extend the life of your COM Express Module/Carrier connectors, this impedance controlled design allows for full Type 2 or Type 6 COM Express system functionality without compromising the testing process.
With solid solder mount standoffs, the COM Express Bus Extender can be used with Compact or Basic COM Express Modules. Save your expensive modules by wearing out the insertion rating of Connect Tech’s COM Express Bus Extender.
ADG052
PCI/PCIe to PMC/XMC Adapter
Connect Tech’s PCI/PCIe to PMC/XMC Adapter enables users to link a standard PCIe card to a XMC Carrier, or a standard PCI card to a PMC Carrier.
The ADG052 is transparent to the PMC/XMC Carrier system and allows for communication, testing, and/or debugging of the Carrier. The ability to test both PCI and PCIe cards, without additional setup or software, enables easy PCI to PMC or PCIe to XMC design development.
Standard Usage Guide
For standard usage of the ADG052, simply insert into a PMC/XMC Carrier. Connect the desired PCI or PCIe cards into the Adapter.
The LEDs on the Adapter serve a few purposes:
D1: Busmode 1
D2: XMC GA2
D3: XMC GA1
D4: XMC GA0
D5: Busmode 4
D6: Busmode 3
D7: Busmode 2
For assembly, ensure that proper Electro Static Discharge (ESD) practices are followed.
ADG046
PCI-104 to Mini-PCIe Card Adapter
Connect Tech’s PCI-104 to Mini-PCIe Card Adapter easily enables integration of a Mini-PCIe (PCI Express Mini) card into a PCI-104 system.
The PCI-104 to Mini-PCIe Card Adapter is fully compatible with any Mini-PCIe peripheral, expanding the capabilities of an existing PCI-104 system. Add features such as WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth, storage and broadband communications.
The Mini-PCIe Card Adapter can also support optional Mini-PCIe features such as USB and SIM Card usage for WLAN applications.
