AMC313

A MicroTCA module with serial or USB ports is an AMC plug-in board that adds external communication interfaces to a MicroTCA chassis.

It may provide:

• Serial ports: RS-232, RS-422, or RS-485
• USB ports: USB 2.0, USB 3.x, host, or device connections
• Sometimes CAN bus, UART, or GPIO interfaces
• Front-panel connectors for cables and external equipment
• A PCIe, USB, or Ethernet connection to a processor through the MicroTCA backplane

Typical uses include connecting:

• Sensors and measurement instruments
• Industrial controllers and motor drives
• Debug consoles and maintenance terminals
• USB storage devices, cameras, or peripherals
• Legacy serial equipment

As a standardized platform of PICMG MicroTCA systems are typically used in medical applications, telecommunications as well as in measurement systems for industrial and scientific applications (e.g. particle physics).

Description:

AMC313 is a single module, mid-size (full-size option available) AdvancedMC (AMC) USB 3.0 Adapter based on the AMC.1 specification. The module provides four USB 3.0 ports to the front panel via type-C connectors.
