The VME475-x mini crate is designed for applications requiring a compact form factor with adaptable cooling and robust power capabilities. It supports up to seven VME64x modules in an IEEE 1101.10 compliant chassis with enhanced EMC and ESD shielding. The crate offers front-to-rear or side-to-side airflow configurations to accommodate varying rack and installation layouts. Power is supplied via one or two hot-swappable 250 W cPCI modules, with optional redundant operation for enhanced reliability. The integrated Shelf Manager enables full system monitoring and control, including voltage, current, fan speed, and temperature parameters. With free rear access for transition modules and flexible mechanical depth options, the VME475-x provides a versatile and reliable platform for laboratory, research, and industrial environments.
