Compatibility – PCI Express Base Specification v2.1 compliant PCI Express Endpoint. 1.4 Signal Interface Products This AcroPack Module will mate directly to all Acromag AP carriers. Once connected, the module is accessed via a front panel connector on most carrier boards.
AcroPack modules, VPX I/O board products, and PCIe I/O Cards. The software is implemented as a library of “C” functions which link with existing user code to make possible simple control of all Acromag AcroPack modules. 1.6 References The following resources regarding AcroPack modules are available for download on Acromag’s website or by contacting your sales representative.
It is important that the user employ satisfactory overall system design. It is understood and agreed by the Buyer and Acromag that this is the Buyer's responsibility.
Refer to the specifications section for loading and power requirements. Be sure that the system power supplies are able to accommodate the power IMPORTANT: Adequate air requirements of the system boards, plus the installed Acromag board, circulation must be provided to within the voltage tolerances specified.

A “1” written to a bit in these registers will cause the corresponding event sense input channel to flag positive events (low-to-high transitions). A “0” will cause negative events to be sensed (high-to-low Acromag, Inc. Tel: 248-295-0310 - 21 - - 21 - www.acromag.com...
A 31.25MHz internal system clock is used for debounce. The debounce times are selected as shown below (actual times vary to within minus 25% of nominal). Acromag, Inc. Tel: 248-295-0310 - 22 - - 22 - www.acromag.com...
Reading or writing this register is possible via 32-bit data transfers. The 10-bits digitized and output from the ADC can be converted to temperature by using the following equation. Acromag, Inc. Tel: 248-295-0310 - 23 - - 23 - www.acromag.com...
MCS firmware file is readable from this location. For example, if the firmware is at revision A then this register will read 0x41 in the least significant byte or B= 0x42, C=0x43, etc. Acromag, Inc. Tel: 248-295-0310 - 24 - - 24 - www.acromag.com...
