2.2Unpacking
Your cPCI/PCI/PCIe-7300A card contains sensitive electronic
components that can be easily damaged by static electricity.
The card should be placed on a grounded anti-static mat. The
operator should be wearing an anti-static wristband, grounded at
the same point as the anti-static mat.
Inspect the card module carton for obvious damage. Shipping and
handling may cause damage to your module. Be sure there are no
shipping and handling damages on the module before pr ocessing.
After opening the card module carton, extract the sys tem module
and place it only on a grounded anti-static surface compone nt side
up.
Again inspect the module for damage. Press down on all the socketed IC's to make sure that they are properly seated. Do this only
with the module place on a firm flat surface.
Note: DO NOT APPLY POWER TO THE CARD IF IT HAS BEEN
DAMAGED.

2.7 Wiring and Termination
Transmission line effects and environment noise, particularly on
clock and control lines, can lead to incorrect data transfers if you
do not take care when running signal wires to and from the
devices.
Take the following precautions to ensure a uniform transformation
line and minimize noise pickup:
1. Use twisted-pair wires to connect digital I/O signals to
the device. Twist each digital I/O signal with a GND line.
In PCI/cPCI/PCIe-7300A, 50 signals are used as GND.
2. Place a shield around the wires connecting digital I/O
signal to device.
3. Route signals to the devices carefully. Keep cabling
away from noise sources, such as video monitor.
For the cPCI/PCI/PCIe-7300A, it is important to terminate your
cable properly to reduce or eliminate signal reflections in the
cable. The PCI/cPCI/PCIe-7300A support active terminator on
board, you can enable or disable the terminator by software selection. This is a good way to include termination on the signal transmission.
Additional recommendations apply for all signal connection to yo ur
cPCI/PCI/PCIe-7300A are listed as follows:
1. Separate cPCI/PCI/PCIe-7300A device signal lines from
high-current or high-voltage line. These lines are capable of inducing currents in or voltages on the cPCI/PCI/
PCIe-7300A if they run in parallel paths at a close distance. To reduce the magnetic coupling between lines,
separate them by a reasonable distance if they run in
parallel, or run the lines at right angles to each other.
2. Do not run signal lines through conducts that also contain power lines.
3. Protect signal lines from magnetic fields.
Installation 17
2.8Termination Board Support
The cPCI/PCI/PCIe-7300A can be connected with two termination
boards: DIN-100S or DIN-502S. The functionality and connections
are specified as follows.
2.8.1 Connect with DIN-100S
The DIN-100S is a direct connection for the add-on card that is
equipped with SCSI-100 connector. User can connect this daughter board by a 100-pin SCSI type cable (ACL-102100) to the cPCI/
PCI/PCIe-7300A. It is suitable for the applications of 32-bit digital
input or 32-bit digital output.
2.8.2 Connect with DIN-502S
The DIN-502S with the cable ACL-10252 separates the 100-pin
SCSI connector into two 50-pin SCSI connectors. One 50 pin connector is for pin 1 - 25 and pin 51- 75 of CN1 whi le the other one is
for pin 26 - 50 and pin 76-1 00 of CN1. That means the DIN-502S
and the ACL-10252 make users easy to connect the 16-bit digital
inputs and 16-bit digital outputs by using two 50-pin daughter
boards respectively. The independent wiring of 16-bit DI and 16-bit
DO let users convenient to setup and maintain his systems.
18 Installation
3Registers
In this chapter, the registers’ format of the cPCI/PCI/PCIe-7300A
is described.
This information is quite useful for the programmers who wish to
handle the card by low-level programming. In addition, users can
realize how to use software driver to manipulate this card after
understanding the registers' structure of the cPCI/PCI/PCIe-7300A
The cPCI/PCI/PCIe-7300A functions as a 32-bit PCI master
device on the PCI bus. There are three types of registers on the
cPCI/PCI/PCIe-7300A: PCI Configuration Registers (PCR), Local
Configuration Registers (LCR) and cPCI/PCI/PCIe-7300A’s registers.
The PCR, which compliant to the PCI-bus specifications, is initialized and controlled by the plug & play (PnP) PCI BIOS. User‘s
can study the PCI BIOS specification to understand the operation
of the PCR. Please contact with PCISIG to acquire the specifications of the PCI interface.
The LCR is specified by the PCI bus controller PLX PCI-9080,
which is provided by PLX technology Inc. (www.plxtech.com) . It is
not necessary for users to understa nd the d etails of the LCR if you
use the software library. The base address of the LCR is assigned
by the PCI PnP BIOS. The assigned address is located at offset
14h of PCR.
Registers 19
3.1I/O Port Base Address
The registers of the cPCI/PCI/PCIe-7300A are shown in Table 3.1.
The base address of these registers is also assigned by the PCI
P&P BIOS. The assigned base address is stored at offset 18h of
the PCR. Therefore, users can read the PCR to know the base
address by using BIOS function call. Note that the cPCI/PCI/
PCIe-7300A registers are all 32 bits. Users should access these
registers by 32 bits I/O instructions.
The cPCI/PCI/PCIe-7300A occupies 8 consecutive 32-bit I/O
addresses in the I/O address space. Table 3.1 shows the I/O Map
of the cPCI/PCI/PCIe-7300A rev.B.
