1 AMC-S402 Overview

The AMC-S402 is an Advanced Mezzanine Card (AMC) module which incorporates an enterprise class dual port SAS disk drive onto the module. The module boasts several unique features intended to help embedded systems designers address both thermal and signal integrity design challenges associated with in-chassis ATCA and MicroTCA applications.

The AMC-S402 includes new signal integrity ‘tuning’ circuits to adjust and optimize the high speed SAS serial links to best match the electrical routing environment of your specific ATCA or microTCA backplanes. These signal wave-shape parameters are stored in non-volatile memory installed on the module.

The AMC-S402 was developed as single-width AMC, with ship options for mid or full height panels. All hard drives are 2.5” small form factor, and spin at a minimum 10,000 rotations per minute (RPM). The AMC-S402 also includes a module management controller (MMC).
