ACEX-4600: COM Express Type 6 Carrier Cards

Supports Type 6 COM Express module, Single/dual PMC/XMC sites, High-density, high-speed connector

Acromag’s ACEX-4600 Type 6 COM Express carrier cards employ a number of key features that are critical for successful use in the rugged environments of defense/industrial applications.

High-density connectors (Samtec® SEARAY™) provide all field connections to standard I/O, CPU, and PMC/XMC module(s). This connector offers both a high-density (500 connections) and high-speed interface (10GHz) required to support Type 6 COM modules. The SEARAY connector supports both board-to-board and cable interfaces.

These carrier cards are ready for conduction cooling. Developers can install a CPU, carrier and expansion boards into a completely sealed enclosure. Acromag has developed a heat dissipation approach that meets the cooling needs of all three components.

Another vital feature is the on-board DC/DC power supply. The carrier card operates from a single external 10–32V DC power source. All internal supply voltages are derived from this single external DC power source and built onto the carrier card.

For easier development and testing, Acromag offers an engineering design kit with a break-out board that routes all I/O signals from the carrier’s high-density connector to standard peripheral connectors. Production front panels with MIL-DTL-38999 cylindrical connectors and a conduction cooling kit prepare the carrier card for field deployment.
