Note Samtec SEAM connectors come in multiple heights, indicated in mm by the XX.X
portion of the following example part number: SEAM-40-XX.X-S-06-2. The height of the
mating connector you select to mate to the RMC connector determines the height of the
standoffs you need. Samtec, the connector manufacturer, requires that standoffs be
0.15 mm taller than the combined height of the RMC and mating connectors. Therefore, to
determine the required standoff height, you must add the heights of the connectors plus
0.15 mm. For example, if you are using a SEAM-40-03.0-S-06-2 connector to mate to the
RMC connector (SEAF-40-06.5-S-06-2), the required standoff height is 3.0 mm + 6.5 mm
+ 0.15 mm = 9.65 mm. Standoffs of this height are available from National Instruments
(NI 153166-12) or Samtec (SO-0965-03-02-L-N). Consult Samtec for alternative heights
and options. You must observe keepouts and maximum heights with all RMC and mating
connector combinations.

Maximum Component Heights
The primary side of the NI sbRIO device is the top side of the PCB
populated with the power and Ethernet connectors. The secondary side is
the bottom. Figures 9 to 12 show the maximum component heights for the
different regions of the primary and secondary sides.
Note In addition to the maximum component heights, you must also observe minimum
keepaway distances for adjacent PCBs and surfaces. Allow 19.05 mm (0.75 in.) from the
surface of the primary side and 7.62 mm (0.300 in.) from the surface of the secondary side.

Understanding Ground Connections
The front I/O connector shields, chassis ground bracket, and mounting
holes near the front I/O are connected together internally to form chassis
ground. Chassis ground is capacitively coupled to digital ground near the
power connector. For the best possible ESD protection, connect chassis
ground at the mounting holes or the chassis ground bracket to a low
inductance earth ground.
When connecting the NI sbRIO device to external devices, ensure that stray
ground currents are not using the device as a return path. Significant stray
currents traversing through the NI sbRIO device can result in device failure.
To verify correct grounding of the NI sbRIO device, make sure the current
flowing into the power connector equals the current flowing out of the
power connector. These currents should be measured with a current probe
after final assembly of the end system. Investigate and remove any current
differences.
Connector Pinouts
The following figures show the pinouts of the I/O connectors on the
NI sbRIO device.

RIO Mezzanine Card Connector
This section applies only to the following NI sbRIO devices:
The RIO Mezzanine Card connector provides connections for 96 FPGA I/O
channels, as well as pins reserved for future use.
The table on the following page lists the pinout for the RIO Mezzanine
Card connector, indicating the pin number and corresponding function.
Note Users interested in additional processor functionality such as serial, CAN, USB,
or Ethernet should contact a local National Instruments representative for custom design
opportunities. A non-recurring engineering charge (NRE) may apply.
Note Reserved and unused lines should be left disconnected on RIO Mezzanine Cards.
Future versions of this manual may update their definition.
Note National Instruments suggests using pins DIO0 through DIO63 first to maintain
future compatibility. DIO64 through DIO95 are not guaranteed to be provided on future
products.
Caution RMCs are not hot-swappable. Disconnect power before mating or unmating.
