Astronomical Research Cameras Arc Rev. 5A Pci Interface Board

Web Information Astronomical Research Cameras Arc Rev. 5A Pci Interface Board This User's Manual describes the PCI interface board product number ARC-64. The board is designed to install in a Peripheral Component Interconnect (PCI) bus that supports 32-bit, 33 MHz operation with either 3.3 or 5.0 volt power source (or both) supplied by the host computer. The board is classified as a short card, measuring 174.6 mm in length and 106.7 mm in width (4.20 x 6.875 inches), including the edge connector, which has 124 pads. In the language of the PCI specification, the board receives commands and parameters from the host computer as a target and writes image and reply data to the host computer as an initiator, which is analogous to a DMA controller. A Freescale (formerly Motorola) DSP56301 manages the on-board resources and serves as the PCI bus controller. The interface board communicates to the controller over a fiber optics link operating at a bit rate of 250 MHz. This board is designed to operate with the ARC-22 timing board resident in the controller. The ARC-22 timing and ARC-64 PCI interface boards are designated as Gen-III controller boards. REVISION HISTORY Rev. 5A: The initial revision of this board was Rev. 5A, dated 6/4/01. It was suitable for operating with PCI Revision 2.1 systems that provide 5.0 volt power to the PCI backplane. The newer PCI revision 2.2 does not require a 5.0 volt supply, but only a 3.3 volt supply Condition Excellent condition.
