XPand1202 | 3U VPX VITA 67 Development Platform for Conduction-Cooled RF Modules and Intel® Core™ i7 Processor-Based SBC

The XPand1202 provides a low-cost, flexible, VITA 67 development platform. This system supports standard SBC and switch modules, as well as VITA 67 modules, making it the ideal platform for high-performance RF applications.This platform supports up to four 3U VITA 67.1, one 3U VITA 67.2, one VITA 65 SBC, one VITA 65 PCIe/GbE centralized switch, and one Gigabit Ethernet switch module. This platform supports up to four 3U VPX VITA 67.1 RF receivers, one 3U VPX VITA 67.2 RF frequency reference module, one OpenVPX™ (VITA 65) SBC, one OpenVPX™ (VITA 65) PCIe/GbE centralized switch, and one 3U VPX Gigabit Ethernet switch.The system supports both 0.8 in. and 1.0 in. pitch conduction-cooled modules. The heat from the internal conduction-cooled modules is conducted to sidewall exchangers, where it is dissipated to the ambient environment by forced-air cooling.The X-ES XPand1202 platform provides a feature-rich solution for RF and high-performance processing system development. Rear Transition Modules (RTMs) provide maximum I/O flexibility and rapid system prototyping. Power and reset LEDs are provided for system status. A momentary push-button is provided for reset, and a switch is provided for DC power enable.
