SMT407 User Manual

Mechanical Interface: PMC Standard

This module conforms to the PMC standard (PCI Mezzanine Card, See Related
Documents.) for single width modules.

It requires a PMC carrier board.

The carrier board provides power, ground, and a PCI bus between the module and
host, for a non stand-alone system.

SMT407 Support

The SMT407 is supported by the SMT6041-407 software package available from
SUNDANCE. Please register on the SUNDANCE

Support Forum

if not yet registered.

Then enter your company’s forum and you can request the SMT6041-407 from there.

SMT407 Installation

Do NOT connect any external TTL (5v) signals to the SMT407 I/Os which
connect directly to the FPGA as the FPGA is NOT 5v tolerant. This implies that
the lines on connector P14 of the carrier board MUST be LVTTL and that any
device driving signals on the SHB connectors must drive at LVTTL (3.3v).

You can fit the SMT407 on its own on any PMC compatible carrier board. When
mated with a carrier board such as Twin Industries Xtend1000, it may then be
plugged into a host computer (e.g. Windows PC).

Please, follow these steps to install the SMT407 module on a Host system:

1. Remove the carrier board from the host system.

2. Connect the SHB and/or RSL cable(s) to the top side of SMT407 (if required

by your application).
