Description
The ATC130 is a carrier module that provides two x16 PCIe Gen3 slots for standard PCIe edge style boards. One of the slots can take a standard extended size high-power PCIe board such as a General-Purpose Graphics Processing Unit (GPGPU) supporting up to ~300W power dissipation. The second PCIe slot is for a smaller PCIe edge style board. The total power available across both boards is ~450W. This modular approach allows an AdvancedTCA chassis to utilize widely available high-end PCIe cards, such as PC graphics cards, to capitalize on the economies of scale within the PC market.
The unit optionally includes a VadaTech third or fourth generation shelf manger, saving the need for a shelf slot within the ATCA Chassis (consult the VT003 or VT040 datasheet for more detail). If the chassis is configured with dual ATC130s then the shelf manger is redundant.
A powerful onboard FPGA can support Tamper Detection and Firmware Corruption checks. It can be programmed by the customer to hold a secure Key. With this capability the module supports External Memory Component Integrity Check Mismatch.
The ATC130 can be ruggedized for harsh environments. See customer ordering options for conformal coating.
