Industry Pack Carriers Industry Pack Modules APC8620 PCI Bus IP Carrier Card This board interfaces industry-standard Industrial I/O Pack (IP) modules to a PCI bus on a PC-based computer system. The APC8620 carrier card holds up to five plug-in I/O modules for extremely high channel density. Five IP module slots give you the freedom to mix a variety of I/O functions (A/D, D/A, digital in, digital out, Environmental Specifications serial I/O, etc.) on a single board. Or, combine modules Operating temperature: 0 to 70°C (APC8621) of the same type for hundreds of channels on a single IP Module Compliance (ANSI/VITA 4) or -40 to 85°C (APC8621E model). Meets or exceeds all written IP specifications per ANSI/VITA 4- card. Either way, the APC8620 saves your precious card Storage temperature: -55 to 100°C (all models). 1995 for 8MHz operation, only. slots and reduces your costs.
