Acromag APC8621A PCI bus carrier

Product Description

Acromag APC8621A Non-intelligent PCI Bus Carrier – Half-Length Card for IndustryPack (IP) Modules

This used Acromag APC8621A is a non-intelligent PCI bus carrier board designed to interface industry-standard IndustryPack (IP) modules to a PCI bus on a PC-based computer system . The half-length card is ideal for use in smaller PC chassis and is widely used in industrial, defense, and transport embedded computing applications .

The APC8621A features three IP module slots, giving you the freedom to mix a variety of I/O functions (A/D, D/A, digital in, digital out, serial I/O, etc.) on a single board. Alternatively, combine modules of the same type for dozens of channels on a single card . This design saves precious card slots and reduces overall system costs.

Select I/O modules from Acromag’s offering of more than forty models or use any third-party IP mezzanine modules compliant with the ANSI/VITA 4 standard .

Key Specifications

Key Features

• Three IndustryPack Module Slots: Mix and match up to three IP modules for customized I/O configurations (A/D, D/A, digital, serial, etc.) .

• Half-Length PCI Card: Compact design fits in smaller PC chassis, ideal for space-constrained systems .

• Plug-and-Play Support: Automatic carrier configuration and interrupt support for easy integration .

• Third-Party Compatibility: Accepts any IP module compliant with the ANSI/VITA 4 standard, not just Acromag modules .

• Industrial Temperature Range: Standard version supports 0-70°C; E version supports -40 to 85°C for harsh environments .

• Robust Power Design: Individually filtered and fused power for each IP module ensures reliable operation .

• Supervisory Circuit Reset: Provides reset generation for system stability .

Compatible I/O Modules

The APC8621A can host a wide variety of IndustryPack (IP) modules, including :

• Analog Input (A/D) – For voltage, current, temperature, and strain gauge measurements

• Analog Output (D/A) – For precision control signals

• Digital Input/Output – For discrete sensing and control

• Serial I/O – For RS-232, RS-422, RS-485 communications

• Counter/Timer – For frequency measurement and pulse generation

• Third-party IP modules – Any ANSI/VITA 4 compliant module

Applications

• Industrial Automation: Custom I/O configurations for factory automation and process control

• Defense & Aerospace: Embedded computing in rugged environments (E version)

• Transportation Systems: Data acquisition and control for railway and vehicle systems

• Test & Measurement: Building specialized test equipment with modular I/O

• Legacy System Support: Replacement or expansion for existing Acromag-based systems

• R&D Prototyping: Flexible I/O for laboratory experiments and development
