When you buy a PC chassis with a backplane, you need a PICMG, PISA, or ISA CPU card (see pp. 92~101). We can often upgrade you to a backplane that matches your expansion slot requirements, though not all similar backplanes fit in the same size chassis. Footnotes: Any unused CPU slot may be used as an ISA-bus expansion slot. Several backplanes incorporate PCI-to-PCI bridge chip(s) to overcome the PCI 4-slot limit. Use a CPU card that supports PCI bridging to ensure compatibility (call for details). Segmented backplanes accept a fixed number of independent CPU cards, with a fixed number of slots for each CPU. These segmented (10, 14, & 20slot) models are built for 2 CPUs. Slots are set up as 6-4, 6-8, or 10-10, respectively (e.g., in the 10-10, there are 10 slots for each PC). Has 1 PICMG CPU/ISA slot and 1 PICMG /ISA /PCI slot. See photo of PBPW 14P12A on facing page. 13-slot segmented PCI/ISA is built for 2 CPUs. Slots are set up as 4PCI/2CPU/2ISA + 3PCI/2CPU/2ISA. 16-slot segmented PCI/ISA is built for 4 CPUs (four 4-slot PCs). It is set up as 4 independent systems, each of which can provide 3PCI + 1CPU or 2 PCI + 1CPU + 1 ISA. See photo of PBPN 16D on the facing page, and notes & above. 18-slot segmented PCI/ISA is built for 2 CPUs (two 9-slot PCs). Set up as 2 x 4 PCI/2 CPU/ 3 ISA slots. Has two adjacent PISA slots; left slot can be used for a PISA CPU card or as an ISA slot; right slot (PISA /PCI) can be used as an ISA slot, a PISA CPU slot, or as a PCI slot.

PICMG 1.3 adds support for high-speed PCI Express (PCIe) slots in place of older ISA slots (see PCIe Tech Note on pg. 15). Now you can use PCIe cards in passive backplane systems and your industrial PC systems can include the latest high-speed video and data acquisition cards alongside standard PCI cards! The PICMG 1.3 bus carries all the signals for up to 16 traditional PCI cards and five or more PCIe cards — far beyond what motherboard-based systems can provide. Design powerful systems with up to 19 expansion card slots. PICMG 1.3 handles more power. Traditional PICMG 1.0 fulllength cards could safely pull up to 227W from the backplane. PICMG 1.3 cards can draw up to 500W without damage. This not only makes them more robust, but also provides support for modern dual- and quad-core processors with high-speed CPUs.
