1.0 General Information

The VPX4812A is an XMC Carrier Card Module in the 3U VPX form factor, targeted for

processing, communications, and display applications in the commercial, military, and aerospace

markets.

The VPX4812A provides support for Rear I/O connections from the XMC P16 connector. The

TRANS-V112 is a development Rear Transition Module for the VPX4812A used to bring out Rear

I/O connections through the backplane.

The VPX4812A supports up to four VPX Fat Pipe (x4) connections to other cards in the system at

Gen 2.0 speeds. The VPX4812A can be used as a switch card allowing an upstream Fat Pipe or

Double Fan Pipe connection –typically to a CPU –to communicate with up to three downstream

Fat Pipe connections or a single Double Fat Pipe connection.

The VPX4812A also provides support for a VPX Double Fat Pipe (x8) connection to an XMC card

at Gen 2.0 speeds.

The VPX4814A disconnects the PCIe connection on the fourth bottom-most Fat Pipe of P1

allowing it to be used in systems with an Ethernet control plane interface. This provides the

VPX4814A with the ability to be used as an XMC Carrier Card in the majority of the standard

OpenVPX profiles.

The information and features for the VPX4812A listed in this manual are also applicable to the

VPX4814A model with the exception of the PCIe connection noted previously.

Introduction

The VPX4812A has two primary functions that can be utilized in a VPX system simultaneously.

1. XMC Carrier Card –The VPX4812A supports a Double Fat Pipe (x8) connection from an

XMC module to the on-board PCIe switch. The voltage used to power the XMC module

can be toggled between 5V or 12V using a DIP switch located on the VPX4812A.

2. VPX Switch Card –The VPX4812A contains a 24-lane 5-port PCIe switch capable of Gen

2.0 speeds. When utilizing the VPX4812A as a switch card, a CPU module configured to

be an upstream port can communicate with up to three downstream VPX cards in the

system as well as an XMC module on the 4812A.

The VPX4812A supports the use of non-transparent bridging using the on-board PCIe switch. By

utilizing non-transparent bridging (NTB), the VPX4812A can be used to implement multi-hosted

topologies including intelligent adapter cards, dual-host systems with redundancy, and even

blade server systems.

Module and Backplane Profiles

The VPX4812A conforms to OpenVPX switch module profile MOD3-SWH-4F-16.4.5-2. This switch

profile is intended to be used in the OpenVPX backplane profile BKP3-CEN06-15.2.12-n shown

below.

Figure 1: OpenVPX Backplane Profile BKP3-CEN06-15.2.12-n

The VPX4812A also conforms to OpenVPX peripheral module profile MOD3-PER-1F-14.3.2 when

used as an XMC carrier card. Typically, this peripheral profile can be used in a wide range of

OpenVPX backplane profiles but due to the PCIe switch connections on P1, the VPX4812A may

be incompatible with profiles that contain other plane interfaces on P1. Check the VPX

connector pinout in this manual against the intended backplane topology to ensure

compatibility.

The VPX4814A disconnects the lower four PCIe lanes on P1 while retaining all of the XMC carrier

card functionality of the VPX4812A. This allows it to be used as an XMC carrier card in a wider

range of OpenVPX backplane profiles including profiles that contain Ethernet control plane

interfaces on P1.

Build Levels

The VPX4812A/14A is available in three electrically compatible build levels, each of which is

carefully tailored to a particular set of requirements and environments. All three levels fully

support the power and versatility of VPX, so no matter how large or diversified your project,

absolute compatibility is assured at all stages of development. The three build levels have three

basic mechanical configurations, both in accordance with the VITA 46.0 VPX standard and the

VITA 48 REDI standard:

1. Air (convection) cooled modules are intended for use in standard industrial chassis.

2. Conduction-cooled modules are intended for use in sealed Air Transportable Racking

(ATR) and other conduction-cooled environments.

3. REDI cover, Conduction-cooled modules are intended for use in sealed Air Transportable

Racking (ATR) and other conduction-cooled environments.

3.0 Preparation For Use

Unpacking and Inspection

Upon receipt of this product, inspect the shipping carton for evidence

of mishandling during transit. If the shipping carton is badly

damaged or water stained, request that the carrier's agent be present

when the carton is opened.

If the carrier's agent is absent when the carton is opened, and the

contents of the carton are damaged, keep the carton and packing

material for the agent's inspection.

For repairs to a product damaged in shipment, refer to the Acromag

Service Policy to obtain return instructions. It is suggested that

salvageable shipping cartons and packing material be saved for future

use in the event the product must be shipped.

This board is physically protected with packing material and

electrically protected with an anti-static bag during shipment. It is

recommended that the board be visually inspected for evidence of

mishandling prior to applying power.

The board utilizes static sensitive components and should only be

handled at a static-safe workstation.

IMPORTANT: Adequate air circulation must be provided to prevent a temperature rise above the

maximum operating temperature.

Adequate air circulation must be provided to prevent a temperature rise above the maximum

operating temperature and to prolong the life of the electronics.

If the installation is in an industrial environment and the board is exposed to environmental air,

careful consideration should be given to air-filtering.
