FMC CONNECTIVITY CARD
For Glenair PCB Mount Opto-Electronic Converters
Glenair 050-344 FPGA Mezzanine Card (FMC) Connectivity Card provides a
convenient method to easily incorporate a wide range of Glenair Harsh
Environment PCB Mount Transceiver, Transmitter and Receiver products as
well as Glenair size 8 Opto-electronic transmitter and receiver contacts into
FPGA based systems. It is compatible with Xilinx® evaluation boards with
FMC connector(s) board and uses the High Pin Count (HPC) version of the
FMC connector.
This FMC card is offered in three configurations, see how to order information,
to support all categories of Glenair PCB Mount devices. Electrical
connections to PCB Mount Opto-electronic devices are through high speed
Samtec connector mounted on the 050-344 card. The card has an FMC
High Pin Count (HPC) connector to mate to the Host FPGA carrier board
which interface with four high-speed serial transceivers on the FPGA carrier
board. It is compatible with either HPC or Low Pin Count (LPC) connector
(restricted to single high-speed serial transceiver for LPC) on the host board.
The 050-344 card also incorporates LEDs for RX LOS indications as well as a
low-jitter 156.25MHz oscillator for use as a clock source for the high-speed
serial transceivers. The board also incorporates I2C current monitor IC and
an I2C GPIO IC so each DUT can be monitored. 22 GPIO pins are also made
available for the user.
