PCI to CompactPCI Adapter
Passive extender card
This passive extender card allows developers to install a CompactPCI card into a standard Universal 3.3V or 5V PCI system, avoiding the need for a dedicated CompactPCI system for development work.
The design also includes a reset button, for convenient push-button resetting of the test card without resetting the host computer. This feature is extremely useful when debugging hardware interactions requiring a hardware «clean slate». (This is a hardware reset only. It does not restore the PCI configuration space.)
NOTE: Ensure the cPCI card under test supports the bus voltage used by the adapter’s PCI host system. Consult your system documentation to determine the voltage on your PCI connector.
Standard Usage
Insert the adapter into the desired slot in your host system. Connect the test cPCI card into the connector.
ISA to PC/104 Adapter
Passive extender card
This passive extender card allows developers to install an 8 or 16-bit PC/104 card into a standard ISA bus PC system, avoiding the need for a dedicated PC/104 stack for development work.
The adapter is equipped with a stack-through connector so the test card can be installed on either side enabling probing on the front or the back.
The design also includes a reset button, for convenient push-button resetting of the test card without resetting the host computer. This feature is extremely useful when debugging hardware interactions requiring a hardware «clean slate».
Standard Usage
Simply stack the test PC/104 card onto the adapter’s PC/104 connectors and insert the adapter into the host system’s ISA slot. No additional configuration is required.
Important Note:
Only one PC/104 card can be used per adapter card.
PC/104-Plus to Mini PCI Adapter
PC/104-Plus - Mini PCI Adapter
This adapter allows users to install a Mini PCI card, such as an IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN card, into a standard 3.3 or 5V PC/104-Plus stack.
Equipped with a passive PC/104 stack-through connector, the card can be installed in a PC/104-Plus stack without interfering with the signals of PC/104 cards located above or below.
The adapter includes a 3.3V regulator for use in 5V-only systems.
Standard Usage and ID Selection
Simply insert the Mini PCI card into socket on the card and insert into the host system’s PC/104-Plus stack. Each card within the stack must have a unique ID ranging from zero to three. You will be required to set a pair of jumpers to specify where your card is located within the stack. (Ensure that no two boards share an ID number.)
The jumpers remain unpopulated for an ID of zero. Populate the left jumper for an ID of one, right jumper for an ID of two, and populate both for an ID of three.
No additional configuration is required.
