Table 16 lists the pinout of the SPX connector.
SPI is, in its simplest form, a three wire serial bus. One signal is a clock, driven only by the
permanent master device on-board. The others are Data In and Data Out with respect to the
master. The SPX implementation on the EPM-31 board supports chip selects. The master device
initiates all SPI transactions. A slave device responds when its chip select is asserted and it
receives clock pulses from the master. All four common SPI modes are supported through the use
of clock polarity and clock idle state controls.
The SPI clock is derived from a 33 MHz PCI clock and can be software-configured to operate at
the following frequencies:
8.25 MHz (33 MHz/4)
4.125 MHz (33 MHz/8)
2.0625 MHz (33 MHz/16)
1.03125 MHz (33 MHz/32)

ABLING
An adapter cable, part number CBR-0901, is available. This is a 9-inch, 9-pin Pico-Clasp to Dual
SPX cable.

VersaLogic offers several SPX modules that provide a variety of standard functions, such as
analog input, digital I/O, CANbus controller, and others. These are small boards (1.2 inches x
3.775 inches) that can mount on the PC/104 and PC/104-Plus stack, using standard PC/104
stand-offs, or up to two feet away from the base board. For more information, contact
VersaLogic at info@VersaLogic.com.
