MIL-STD-202G shock / vibe
Overview
Highlights
Mini PCIe Sockets
Two Mini PCIe sockets support A/D convertors, Ethernet,
Wi-Fi modems, MIL-STD-1553, solid-state storage, and other
plug-in devices.
The VL-EPMx-P2 expansion module provides dual Mini PCIe socket expansion for any
PC/104-Plus or PCI-104 embedded system. With a small footprint and industrial temperature
operation, the VL-EPMx-P2 provides versatile PCI Express ® Mini Card expansion for small
form factor embedded systems.
MIL-STD-202G
As with all VersaLogic products, the VL-EPMx-P2 is designed to support OEM applications where
high reliability and long-term availability are required. From application design-in support, to its 5+
year production life guarantee, the VL-EPMx-P2 provides a durable embedded computer solution
with an excellent cost of ownership. The VL-EPMx-P2 is fully RoHS compliant.
PC/104 Form Factor
Details
Industrial Temperature
-40° to +85°C operation for harsh environments.
Qualified for high shock / vibration environments.
Rugged industry-standard form factor.
Based on PC/104 standards, the VL-EPM-P2 supports PCI and ISA stackable expansion buses on
an industry-standard 90 mm x 96 mm (3.55” x 3.78”) expansion module. The VL-EPMp-P2 supports
PCI stackable expansion. Using a reverse PCI to PCI Express bridge, the VL-EPMx-P2 provides
off-the-shelf PC/104-Plus and PCI-104 systems with full access to high-speed Mini PCIe devices.
The two on-board Mini PCIe sockets accommodate plug-in modules such as A/D convertors,
Ethernet, Wi-Fi modems, MIL-STD-1553, solid-state storage, and other devices. The VL-EPMx-P2
is compatible with full-sized Mini PCIe cards. Half-sized Mini PCIe cards can be supported by special
order. Four on-board LEDs provide Activity status for each Mini PCIe socket.
Designed for full industrial temperature (-40° to +85°C) operation, the rugged VL-EPMx-P2 meets
MIL-STD-202G specifications for mechanical shock and vibration for use in harsh environments.
Product customization is available, even in low OEM quantities. Customization options include
conformal coating, revision locks, custom labeling, customized testing and screening, etc.
