The SPR418A is a short-form-factor PCI Express carrier for either PMC or XMC modules which allows for use of these modules in traditional PCs with slots supporting 8 or 16 lane PCI Express (Gen 1 or 2). The PCI Express interface to the host allows for unimpeded data transfers at the full rate supported by the mezzanine card.
The card’s fan supplies cooling to the mezzanine card for improved reliability. The board supports up to 25 W of power, well in excess of that required by the PMC and XMC specifications. ($1,145 — available now.)
