  • Desktop form factor

  • Single slot for 1-unit VME 6U x 160mm modules

  • VME64 and VME64X power compliance (VME protocols not supported)

  • Low-noise air cooling system

  • Hardware selectable high and low fan speed

  • Mains powered 100 – 240 V AC (130 W) @ 50 / 60 Hz

  • 19” rack mount kit included

The μ-Crate is a mains-powered (100 – 240 V AC (130 W) @ 50 / 60 Hz) desktop device with low-noise cooling vents system. The single-slot backplane is mechanically and electrically compliant to 1-unit VME 6U x 160mm modules in the VME64 and VME64X standards that meet the provided voltage and current specifications. Optional mounting into 19” racks is possible by metal brackets that are provided with the device.
According to the operating conditions, the User can manually set high and low fan speed level by hardware button.
