An illustration of the front-entry board and rear-panel I/O board interface with the backplane/midplane is shown in figure Figure 10. Front/rear boards and backplane interface Rear-panel I/O boards are either 3U or 6U in width and are typically 80mm in depth. Other depths are allowed depending on the application requirements. -
Page 29: Pin And Socket Connectors
Model 6276 User Guide 3 • System architecture Rear-panel I/O transition boards may have active components in some applications. Power can be applied either through the I/O pins from the front board, or from the normal power and ground pins defined as part of the J1/P1 and J2/P2 connector pin assignments. -
Page 30: J1/P1 & J2/P2 Connectors
The CompactPCI bus spans the J1/P1 & J2/P2 connectors, with 32-bit PCI implemented on J1/P1 and full 64-bit PCI implemented on J2/P2 on the Model 6276 Midplane. J1/P1 is always devoted to 32-bit PCI in CompactPCI systems, however, use of J2/P2 for 64-bit PCI can be optional. For instance, J2/P2 may be defined for user I/O, or sub-buses like the CT H.110 bus. -
