Overview
The XVME-976 adapter module provides I/O expansion for Xycom’s
XVME-654 and XVME-655 VMEbus PC/AT processor modules. Direct
connection is possible with the XVME-654. Connections with the XVME655 require a transition board, such as the XVME-978/1 Ethernet card, or
XVME-978/100 transition module, which plug into the XVME-655 and provide the mechanical and electrical connections for the XVME-976.
Module Features
The XVME-976 offers the following features:
• One PC/104 and one PMC expansion module site
• On-board DC regulator to supply 3.3 volts to the PMC site

• Optional PC/104-compatible modules for Ethernet, SCSI, serial and parallel expansion (available from Xycom)
• Optional PMC modules (available through third party) for ATM, FDDI
and SCSI expansion
