Alarm card handles fan, voltage monitoring and control

January 15, 2021 By Lee Teschler Leave a Comment

An alarm card that can be used in various OpenVPX, VME/VME64x, CompactPCI, cPCI Serial and other open standard architecture chassis platforms provides the system with basic monitoring and control functions including; voltage levels, power supply health, temperature and fan monitoring/control. The board monitors the four common power rails in Eurocard-based systems of 5, 3.3, 12, and -12 V. It also provides for the monitoring and alarm cardcontrol of up to four fans and the monitoring of two temperature sensors. Other features include a local bi-color LED and header for remote LEDs, an alarm cancel push button, and a USB interface.

Pixus offers high-performance OpenVPX and other open standard architecture backplanes, chassis platforms, and specialty products. The company also provides customizable faceplates, ejector handles, card guides, and other components.
