Conduction Cooled PMC (CCPMC)

   Any data acquisition board from General Standards Corporation can be converted to a conduction cooled version.
   The First Conduction-Cooled PMC card from GSC (CCPMC66-16AI32SSA) is being used in an advanced terrain avoidance system. This CCPMC analog input card features 32 differential input channels. It has a 16-Bit ADC per channel and simultaneously samples all channels at rates up to 200,000 samples per second for each channel. [Read more]

    Conduction-Cooled PMC Standard

       This standard defines the mechanical and thermal interface for a conduction cooled PCI mezzanine card (CCPMC) to allow for compatibility of products. Typical usage would be for a CCPMC module to be fitted on top of a host VMEbus card that conforms to Conduction-Cooled Eurocard standard (IEEE 1101.2-1992, a Standard for Mechanical Core Specifications). However, it is possible for a CCPMC card to be fitted to any other host card (such as CompactPCI) as long as that host card presents a mechanical and thermal interface that conforms to this specification.
        This standard is based on the physical (mechanical) layers defined in IEEE P1386/P1386.1 (CMC/PMC) draft standard, however provision has been made for increased mechanical support for enhanced shock and vibration performance.

       Typical usage would be for a CCPMC module to be fitted on top of a host VMEbus card that conforms to IEEE 1101.2-1992, Standard for Mechanical Core Specifications for Conduction-Cooled Eurocards. However, it is possible for a CCPMC card to be fitted to any other host card as long as that host card presents a mechanical and thermal interface that conforms to this specification.

       The thermal interfaces to the host has been achieved with minimum restriction to the mezzanine component area by utilizing the front panel and central stiffening bar areas, normally associated with a conduction cooled assembly. Additional thermal interfaces are optional for enhanced thermal performance, however these thermal interfaces further reduce available component area.
       The CMC/PMC standard defines a printed circuit board (PCB) profile that extends beyond the component boundary of the VME base card. Therefore, the PCB length must be reduced from 149.0 mm to 143.75 mm. The PCB length must be reduced to be compliant with IEEE 1101.2. The reduction in length does not impact the bezel holes and, therefore, compatibility with air cooled assemblies is maintained. Similarly, the I/O connector area of the CCPMC card faces the base card in an area that has a zero-component-height limitation. This allows the mezzanine card to accommodate front panel I/O (as well as increased component heights in the mezzanine I/O connector area). The front panel I/O connector is not typically used on conduction cooled assemblies, since the I/O is usually routed to the motherboard J2 (or P0) via the Pn4 mezzanine card connector.
