Introduction

The ADLINK PCI/PXI-8570 expansion kit is a PCI-to-PXI or PXI-to-PXI expansion module that functions as

a transparent PCI-to-PCI bridge register set. Implementing master and slave extension modules, users can

have direct control of PXI/CompactPCI chassis from any other PC or another PXI/CompactPCI system. All

devices on the system are deemed to be local devices on the same PCI bus.

The PCI interface supports 64-bit or 32-bit PCI buses operating at 66 MHz or 33 MHz. By adopting shielded

twisted copper cables, PCI-8570/PXI-8570 can expand the transmission distance to 10 meters. One master

expansion card (either PCI-8570 or PXI-8570) can expand up to 2 slave expansion modules (PXI-8570) at the

same time. A bundled link can support the full bandwidth of a 64-bit/66 MHz PCI bus. All interrupts asserted by

add-in cards in the expansion system are passed through the expansion set to the host system.

With ADLINK PCI/PXI-8570, users can combine PCI, CompactPCI, and PXI devices in the same system,

increase the available number of PXI/CompactPCI slots for high-density I/O application and separate a

control system from a harsh environment with an expansion chassis.
