– The cPCI load board serves to simulate loads on cPCI back wall wiring systems or racks
– Both electrical and thermal conditions can be simulated
– The following load streams can be switched with the coding and tilt lever switches located on the front plate:

Control Options
5 V in .55A stages
3.3 V in .7A stages
+12 V off/1A
-12 V off/1A

– 5V must always be connected as control voltage
– Voltages are tapped at the cPCI bus via the P1 plug

Excessive temperature protection:
– Load test card switches itself off at a temperature on the top side of the load test card or in the rack of 120 degrees C +-5 K

– Incoming voltage levels for the voltages 5V, +12V, 3.3V, -12V can be measured at measuring points close to the plug P1
– These measuring points are run via the plug X1 (on the front plate)
– 4 PTC resistors (PT100) are attached to the load card: On the front at bottom and top and on the back at the bottom and top
– It is possible to measure the temperature on the load test card or in the rack via these
– The PTC resistor connections are also run via the plug X1

The Modular Test and Development platform solution is used in cPCI (3U and 6U) based Embedded computing applications. With a rugged modular aluminum construction, the versatile E-frame tower can support up to 19 slots at .8″ or 15 slots at 1″ pitch, depending on cabling options. There are front accessible test points and monitoring LEDs for +3.3V, +/-5V, +/-12V, +/- 24V, and +/- 48VDC. The E-frame features high performance cooling with 3 x 150 CFM fans under the card cage. The fans are speed controlled with fan fail indication. A system monitor with remote monitoring via Ethernet capability is optional.
The black coated powder coated finish of the E-frame enhances aesthetics and provides scratch-resistance. Other features include a Rear A/C PEM (Power Entry Module) with fuses, GND stud, front located ESD jacks. The unit also offers full RTM (rear transition module) support.
