CM-DI-42

The CM-DI-42 is a 64 channel, non externally powered optocoupled input VMEbus board, incorporating features most demanded in today's first class military & industrial applications.

CM-DI-42 - Discrete Input

No external AC or DC voltages need be supplied by the application. 64 galvanically isolated DC/DC converters provide the input voltage required by the channel isolators.

The metallic layer within the PCB benefits heat dissipation & uniform component temperatures, thus increasing component longevity & module MTBF.

CM-DI-42 - Discrete Input

Incorporating Built-In-Test circuitry for testing all on board TTL chips using wraparound loops which read-back channel status to verify correct module operation.

Military versions with thermal overlay greatly improve capability to withstand shock & vibration.

The CM-DI-42 offers a highly flexible I/O cabling solution using VME64x connectors on both front panel and P2. Both connectors have identical pin-out.

CM-DI-42 - ATR Chassis

All versions are compatible at the function level, Industrial versions allow low cost software development.
