MEN Mikro Elektronik G403 3U CompactPCI Serial board

The G403 3U CompactPCI Serial board has been designed specifically for modern railway applications. The board is suited to many different control functions, such as door-locking control and interior lighting.

The product supports a total of 16 bidirectional digital I/O channels organised into four optically isolated groups for data transmission, with four channels in each group. In addition to an accommodating configuration as either an input or output, each channel features an individual edge-triggered interrupt.

A voltage range of 14.4 to 154 VDC with a current output of 1 A at 24 V complies with EN 50155, making the board ready for immediate use in train applications as well as able to handle digital I/O signals with different voltage levels and ground references. The four front connectors use spring cage terminal blocks, facilitating low wiring outlay and enabling fast installation while ensuring a secure connection.

The board is equipped with all safety measures necessary for mobile environments, like voltage and temperature supervision, as well as readback of outputs and conformal coating against dust and humidity. This makes the device a robust product for all controlling means in the rail market.
