Page 10: Hardware Assembly
Physical Details ARDWARE SSEMBLY The SPX-5 mounts on two hardware standoffs using the corner mounting holes. These standoffs are secured to the board, typically across the PC/104 and PC/104-Plus stack locations, using pan head screws, shown in Figure 2. Standoffs and screws are available as part number VL-HDW-101. -

Page 15: Switch Control Code Example
The following code example shows how to configure the base board’s SPX registers for the SPX- 5 and turns on switch 3 (SPX-5 J3 pins 1 and 2). The test setup is configured with an appropriate external voltage supply for the load driven and the SPX-5 jumpered for SS0#. -
Page 16: Base Board Spi Registers
The following tables describe the SPI control and data registers of the EBX-11 Rev. 6.00 and later. This is the standard set of SPI registers for VersaLogic CPU boards with an SPX interface. See the appropriate base-board reference manual for details and updates. - Page 17 SPI Busy Flag – This bit is a status flag that indicates when an SPI BUSY transaction is underway. 0 = SPI bus idle 1 = SCLK is clocking data in and out of the SPIDATA registers This bit is read-only.
