Giga link

GIGA (CS-P-1798-A)

Features

• Double Euro size module
• High speed fiber channel transmission of 1062.5 Mbaud (one gigabit / sec)
• Up to two kilometers fiber length possible
• 32 bit wide data input and output
• Data input and output FIFO buffered

General Description

GIGA is a VME 6HE module. It is a fiber optics transceiver with a transmission speed of one gigabit/s and uses for serial transmission a modified FIBERCHANNEL protocol. The data enter the module on the front panel connector from the synchronous Giga Bus to the fiber optics transmitter and the serial data from the fiber optics receiver leave the module to the synchronous Giga Bus on the VME P2 connector. The protocol and pin-out of the parallel bus is identical on transmitter and receiver side. Input and output data are FIFO buffered. The Transceiver hybrid itself (SIEMENS V23806) has a 32-bit wide data input and output and a 4-bit command input and output. The command signals are transmitted like data and are used to form the protocol of the parallel Giga Bus.

GIGA (CS-P-1931-B)

Features

• Double Euro size module
• VME bus compatible
• High speed fiber channel transmission of 1062.5 Mbaud (one gigabit / sec)
• Up to two kilometers fiber length possible
• 32 bit wide data input and output
• Data input and output FIFO buffered

General Description

GIGA is the main module in the IRACE system. It is a fiber optics transceiver with a transmission speed of one gigabit/s and uses for serial transmission a modified FIBERCHANNEL protocol. The data enter the module on the front panel connector from the synchronous Giga Bus to the fiber optics transmitter and the serial data from the fiber optics receiver leave the module to the synchronous Giga Bus on the VME P2 connector. The protocol and pin-out of the parallel bus is identical on transmitter and receiver side. Input and output data are FIFO buffered. The Transmitter fiber optic controller (HP hpdm-1022) has a 40-bit wide data output. The command signals are transmitted like data and are used to form the protocol of the parallel Giga Bus.
