Abaco Systems / SBS / Greenspring PCI-60A-8/32 Six Slot IndustryPack Carrier for PCI

The Abaco Systems / SBS / Greenspring PCI-60A-8/32 is a six-slot IndustryPack (IP) carrier board designed for the PCI bus, providing a versatile solution for interfacing with various industrial I/O modules. This board leverages a PLX PCI9080 controller and Altera FPGA logic for its PCI bus interface, ensuring configurable interrupt vector space and support for both 3.3V and 5.0V signaling levels. The PCI-60A-8/32 offers a software-selectable clock on a per-slot basis, enhancing its performance, and provides a standard 8 MB memory space for each IndustryPack site. Its 32-bit PCI host address space allows for linear mapping and fixed partitions of memory, I/O, and ID spaces for each installed IndustryPack module. The board adheres to the PCI specification and the VITA-4 IndustryPack Logic Interface Specification, guaranteeing broad compatibility with a wide range of IndustryPacks. It is also backward compatible with the PCI-40A.
