Enhanced Serial Interface Module for Excalibur 8000 Family of Carrier Boards, with High Baud Rate & High Throughput
M8KSerial
Serial Interface
The M8KSerial is an enhanced serial interface module for the multiprotocol Excalibur 8000 family of carrier boards, that includes several advanced features such as a high baud rate and high throughput. This module supports up to two independent channels of serial communications, each of which can be selected as RS-485, RS-422 or RS-232. The module operates independently of the host computer, reducing the need for host intervention.The M8KSerial module is based on the Exar XR16M570 Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART). The device is compatible to industry standard 16550 UARTs. Each of the M4KSerialPlus’s four channels contains a transmit FIFO capable of holding up to 16384 bytes and a receive FIFO capable of holding either 16384 receive bytes or 5460 bytes with a 32-bit Time Tag associated with each byte. These large buffers allow application code to transfer large quantities of data with a single non-blocking subroutine call. The 32-bit Time Tag on receive channels is very useful for synchronizing serial data with data from other modules on the 8000 board or on other interface boards. Each channel has a programmable baud rate of up to 10 Mbps and can be configured as RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485.The M8KSerial module is supplied with C drivers, including source code.

Conduction Cooled VPX Interface Board with PCI Express Host Interface
EXC-8000ccVPX
-
The EXC-8000ccVPX is part of the 8000 family of multiprotocol carrier boards. This conduction cooled VPX interface board has a PCI Express host interface and can support up to four independent removable modules and 10 on-board Discrete channels. Each removable module can be any of the 8000 family modules.The EXC-8000ccVPX supports Direct Memory Access (DMA), which enables the board to access system memory for reading and writing independently of the computer’s CPU. This results in faster data transfer to and from the board, with much less CPU overhead than when not using DMA.The EXC-8000ccVPX is supplied with C drivers, including source code. Mating connector provided for I/O connection.

CAN Bus & ARINC-825 (825CAN)
-
The 825CAN module is an intelligent multichannel ARINC 825 (CAN bus) interface module for the multiprotocol Excalibur 4000 & 8000 family of carrier boards. The module supports up to ten ARINC-825 channels. In receive mode, the module stores all or selected messages with status and Time Tag information appended to each message. In transmit mode, the module operates via a transmit Bandwidth Frame which allows scheduling of data transmissions and reduces the need for host computer intervention.
