Application Information
The TAMC261 is a standard Mid-Size/Full-Size AMC.1 (PCI-Express) and MTCA.4 compliant PMC carrier module that provides one slot for a single-width PMC, used to build modular, flexible and cost effective I/O solutions for applications in process control, medical systems, telecommunication and traffic control.
A PI7C9X130 PCIe-to-PCI bridge provides the connection between primary PCIe link and the secondary PMC slot. The bridge controls all PCI accesses and the frequency for the PMC access. PCI is supported up to 64-bit @66MHz and PCI-X is supported up to 64-bit @133MHz.
The TAMC261 supports front panel I/O, alternatively the MTCA.4 interface provides access to the PMC P14 back I/O lines. According to MTCA.4, the TAMC261 provides
two 30-pair ADF connectors at the Zone 3 interface (Rear I/O) that provide access to all P14 back I/O lines via a compatible μRTM.
The TAMC261-2x additionally provide M-LVDS transceivers connected to AMC port 12-15, port 17-20 and the TCLKA-D. All control and data lines of the M-LVDS transceivers are routed to the zone 3 interface, enabling a mounted PMC to access the AMC port signals via the μRTM.
The TAMC261 is a versatile solution to upgrade well known legacy I/O solutions to a high performance form factor.
According to AMC.0, the TAMC261 provides an IPMI compliant Module Management Controller (MMC) with temperature monitoring and hot-swap support.
