6U VPX DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM · SKU 90075305
XPand1015
The XPand1015 system is a low-cost development platform for conduction-cooled 6U VPX cards. It supports up to two 0.8 in. or 1.0 in. 6U VPX boards and utilizes RTMs to simplify I/O access and support rapid system prototyping.
Product Lifecycle
X-ES also offers comprehensive configuration and obsolescence management services, providing customers with direct control over non-interchangeable changes and extending product availability and serviceability well beyond standard end-of-life milestones.
Engineered for Extended Reliability
All X-ES products are designed and manufactured 100% in the USA with components from trusted supply chains in order to deliver rugged, reliable performance in the most demanding environments.
Built with components rated for extreme conditions and validated through rigorous testing, our solutions minimize obsolescence risk and lower total cost of ownership across the full program lifespan.
XPand1015 Platform Overview
The XPand1015 system is a low-cost development platform for conduction-cooled 6U VPX cards.
It supports up to two 0.8 in. or 1.0 in. 6U VPX boards and utilizes RTMs to simplify I/O access and support rapid system prototyping.
Flexible Slot Configuration
The XPand1015 can be configured as two I/O isolated slots, with all I/O from the payload passed to the RTM.
Optionally, the XPand1015 can be configured with Quad Fat Pipe (QFP) J2 interconnects, with the remaining I/O from the payload passed to the RTM.
Power Supply
Power is provided via the included 3U VPX VITA 62 power supply. An included external XPm9001 power supply plugs into a standard 120 V wall outlet to produce 24 V DC to power the VITA 62 supply.
Power and reset LEDs are provided for system status. A momentary push button is provided for reset, and a switch is provided to enable DC power.
Thermal Management
The XPand1015 dissipates heat from the conduction-cooled modules to sidewall heat exchangers, where it is quietly dissipated to the ambient environment by forced-air cooling.
Standard & Custom Configurations
The XPand1015 is currently available for purchase in several rapid-development standard configurations. Custom configurations of modules, RTMs, and backplanes are also available utilizing X-ES and third-party components.
SOSA Support
This development platform provides support for modules SOSA-aligned to the Payload (XMC) profile (SLT6-PAY-4F1Q1H4U1T1S1S1TU2U2T1H-10.6.3) with no apertures installed.
The expansion plane is routed between slots and other I/O is passed through to the RTM. (Contact factory for build options that accommodate apertures.)
