6. Selection Recommendations

  • Compatibility: Verify VMEbus and PMC module requirements (e.g., PCIe vs. PCI).
  • Environment: Ensure the operating temperature (-40°C to +85°C) matches site conditions.
  • Performance Needs: Balance processor speed (667 MHz) with memory (1 GB) for real-time vs. data-intensive tasks.
  • Budget: Consider long-term costs (e.g., lifecycle support vs. upfront price of lower-spec alternatives).

7. Precautions

  • Installation: Use ESD (electrostatic discharge) protection during handling.
  • Cooling: Ensure adequate airflow in enclosed cabinets (max. 85°C ambient).
  • Software: Validate OS compatibility (e.g., VxWorks 6.9, Linux 3.10).
  • Maintenance: Schedule annual inspections for dust accumulation and connector integrity.
