12-Slot VMEbus Backplane

Backplane Bus Connectors

All rows of J101 through J112 (Z, A, B, C, D) are interconnected across all 12 slots, which provides the required signals for A24/D16 operation.

The center row (B) of J201 through J212 is interconnected across all 12 slots, which provides the required signals for extended operation (A32/D32).

Rows A and C of J201 through J212 are not interconnected, but are available for I/O functions or expansion bus operation.

VME64x Bus Interface Signal Termination

Signal lines are terminated with active termination. For further information on bus termination and VME64x bus backplane specifications, refer to the VME64 Extensions Specification, VITA 1.1-199x.
