Page 7: Introduction
NAMC-EXT – Technical Reference Manual 1 Introduction The NAMC-EXT is an extender card for standard AMCs, single width, double height. It can be plugged onto any ATCA carrier board supporting AMC standards. It is also designed to meet the requirements of μTCA systems. It eases debugging of AMC boards by enabling the user to access the module under test from both sides, install debug port cables, and allow access for measurement of power supplies. -

Page 9: Overview
NAMC-EXT – Technical Reference Manual 2 Overview The NAMC-EXT is a passive extender board, it does not contain any circuitry. The NAMC-EXT-PS features an on-board +3.3V power supply for generating Management Power from Payload Power, so the module under test can be operated with an external +12V power supply only. -

NAMC-EXT – Technical Reference Manual 2.2 Location Diagram The following figures highlight the position of the important components. Depending on the board type it might be that the board does not include all components named in the location diagrams. This applies in particular to the optional +3.3V power supply of the NAMC-EXT-PS. -

Page 12: Dimensions
NAMC-EXT – Technical Reference Manual 2.3 Dimensions The main function of the NAMC-EXT is to allow access for measuring and debugging purposes to a standard AMC. Hence connector JP1 (that picks up the AMC) and all measuring points are located on the extended part outside the chassis. To allow this it is inevitable that the extended area varies from the outlines defined in the AMC.0 specification, whereas the part that fits into the chassis still complies with the defined dimensions. -

NAMC-EXT – Technical Reference Manual 4.2.2 Jumper JP2 The setting of jumper JP2 defines the source for /AMC_ENABLE signal. The default position (right aligned) means the signal is connected to the backplane. In the left aligned position the signal is pulled down locally on the extender board. 4.2.3 Jumper JP3 (NAMC-EXT-PS only) The setting of jumper JP3 defines the source of Management Power. -
