Acromag’s VPX4810 and VPX4812A 3U VPX carrier cards Acromag's VPX carrier cards offer a cost-effective and straightforward way to interface a PMC or XMC module with a VPX computer system. These carrier cards transmit power and interface bus signals to a plug-in mezzanine module via the VPX card slot connector, while an 8-lane PCIe bus Gen 2 interface ensures high-speed data throughput. With these carrier cards, developers can easily incorporate PMC/XMC industrial I/O and FPGA modules from Acromag or other vendors into a VPX platform, providing access to a wide range of available function modules. Pricing for these carrier cards starts at $1300 for an air-cooled version with a temperature range of 0 to 70°C, with conduction-cooled and REDI models available for use in extended temperature ranges of -40 to 85°C.

Designed and manufactured lead-free in the USA, these carrier cards are ideal for high-performance industrial, defense, scientific research, and telephony systems requiring high-speed I/O. The VPX4810 and VPX4812 models conform to VPX VITA 46.0, 46.4, and 46.9 specifications, and can also be configured for Ruggedized Enhanced Design Implementation (REDI) according to VITA 48. While both models support front and rear-panel I/O access, the front I/O option is only available on air-cooled models. Additionally, both models are compatible with a number of VITA 65 OpenVPX module/slot profiles.

Acromag offers numerous compatible PMC modules to perform A/D, D/A, digital I/O, and serial communication functions, as well as re-configurable FPGA modules available in a PMC or XMC format with multi-lane serial interconnects for high-performance algorithm acceleration and adaptive computing applications. The VPX4812 can even be used as a VPX switch card, allowing a host CPU to communicate with up to three downstream cards in addition to the XMC card.

With over 50 years of experience designing and manufacturing measurement and control products, Acromag is a trusted provider in the industry. Their complete line of embedded I/O products includes bus boards, mezzanine modules, wiring accessories, and software, with industries served including military, aerospace, manufacturing, transportation, utilities, and scientific research laboratories.
