3U VPX Conduction-Cooled Development System

The XPand1200 is a low-cost flexible development platform. This platform supports up to ten 1” or 0.8” pitch conduction-cooled VPX (VITA 48.2) modules. 550W of total simultaneous power is provided, which can be distributed as up to 50A on 12V, up to 50A on 5V, and up to 25A on 3.3V. An efficient thermal design allows up to 60 W of power dissipation per slot at 30˚C ambient, while maintaining 70˚C at the modules' thermal interface.

XPand1200 provides a feature rich solution for system development. RTMs provide maximum I/O flexibility and rapid system prototyping. Power and reset LEDs are provided for system status. A momentary push button is provided for reset and a switch is provided for DC power enable.

The XPand1200 is available for purchase in several rapid development standard configurations. Custom configurations of modules, RTMs, and backplanes are also available. Please consult Electronic Tools today for your ideal rapid development solution.
