UNDERSTANDING THE 1264C

The 1264C Mainframe consists of the following major functional
blocks.
Power Supply
Backplane
Cooling System
System Monitor
Figure 4-1 shows the functional block diagram of the 1264C
Mainframe.
The power supply accepts power from the AC mains and converts
it to DC to power the following:
VXI modules installed into the backplane
Backplane terminations and daisy chaining logic
System Monitor board
Power is supplied to the backplane through a board-to-board
connection eliminating any wiring and sub-backplane interconnect
boards. This design reduces the path impedance between the
supply and the VXI modules receiving power, which results in
improved dynamic current performance. See Appendix A for
specifications.
Remote sense correction is provided for the +5V, -2V, and –5.2V
VXI supplies. The remote sense signals are routed from PS1
through the monitor board (405141-J2) to the backplane via the
14-pin ribbon cable (405141-J1 to 405130-J50).
The Power Fail signal is routed from PS1 to the monitor board
(405141-J2) and used to generate the VME signals ACFAIL* and
SYSRESET*. These signals are then routed to the backplane
through the 14-pin ribbon cable (405141-J1 to 405130-J50).
