VME
VME
VMEbus  is a computer bus standard, widely used for many applications and standardized by the IEC as ANSI/IEEE 1014-1987. It is physically based on Eurocard sizes, mechanicals and connectors (DIN 41612), but uses its own signalling system, which Eurocard does not define. Features VME/VME64 : ...
VPX
VPX
VPX is a broadly defined technology utilizing the latest in a variety of switch fabric technologies in 3U and 6U format blades. OpenVPX is the architecture framework that defines system level VPX interoperability for multi-vendor, multi-module, integrated system environments. Rugged Eurocard 3U ...
CompactPCI
CompactPCI
cPCI [Compact Peripheral Component Interface] is electrically identical to the PCI specification. It uses the Euro (VME) card 3U/6U format with 2mm connectors. The cPCI bus uses 8, 16, 32, or 64 bit transfers at up to 264MBps. 64 bit PCI transfers may be used in either 3U or 6U size cards ...
ACTA
ACTA
The Advanced TCA backplane provides point-to-point connections between the boards and does not use a data bus. The backplane definition is divided into three sections; Zone-1, Zone-2, and Zone-3. The connectors in Zone-1 provide redundant −48 VDC power and Shelf Management signals to the boards ...
