XMC to PCIe carrier allows the use of single-width XMC modules with VITA 61 (XMC 2.0) style connectors in four-lane PCI Express Gen 3 motherboard edge card slots. It supports Ethernet connectivity via three RJ-45 connectors accessed through the PCIe card front bracket, or alternatively through the rear VME connector. Additional JTAG, IPMI I2C and VITA discretes interfaces are available for user debugging and control.
XMC to PCIe carrier is a passive device designed to host XMC form factor mezzanine card TTEEnd System A664 Lab (XMC) v2.0 and other compatible designs for laboratory applications and early integration phase in aviation projects inside an air-cooled chassis.
