VadaTech’s Single Slot Backplane Ideal for AMC Development

Henderson, NV – Oct 20, 2014 – VadaTech, a manufacturer of embedded boards and complete application-ready platforms, offers a single slot backplane for test & development of Advanced Mezzanine Card (AMC) modules.

The VT072 single slot backplane is a simple tool for benchtop testing of AMCs.  It prevents the requirement of a full MicroTCA chassis for simple power-up and de-bug.  Although the VT072 is typically used without a chassis, it does come with mounting holes for use within an enclosure.  

The module also includes two ports for sending GbE signals.   Ports 0 and 1 of the VT072 are directly routed to the GbE PHY.  The single slot backplane requires +12V power for operation, which can be attached via a small header.  Any AMC.1, AMC.2, AMC.3, or AMC.4 product can be utilized in the VT072.

VadaTech also provides test and debug products for AdvancedTCA and MicroTCA systems, including load boards, shock/vibration testing, IPMI development, and Telco/Clock breakout modules.   The company also provides full chassis platforms, FPGAs, processors, carriers, and many other products in various open standard architecture formats.
