PXI & CompactPCI Compliance
The module is compliant with the PXI Specication 2.2. Local Bus,
Trigger Bus and Star Trigger are not implemented.
Uses a 33MHz 32-bit backplane interface.
Safety & CE Compliance
All modules are fully CE compliant and meet applicable EU
directives: Low-voltage safety EN61010-1:2010, EMC Immunity
EN61326-1:2013, Emissions EN55011:2009+A1:2010.
Mechanical Characteristics
Single or dual slot 3U PXI (CompactPCI card).
3D models for all versions in a variety of popular le formats are
available on request.
Connectors
PXI bus via 32-bit P1/J1 backplane connector.
The 40-220A/225A is available with either a blank panel or a
selection of connector types.
Note: Care must be taken when interfacing the 40-220A module
with external circuits which may produce high voltage spikes or RF
interference. Additional noise protection may be required, please
contact Pickering if you wish to discuss your requirement.
40-225A PXI Prototype Module
The 40-255A is a “stripped down“ version of the 40-220A - a very
basic, low cost, prototype module. It has no PXI interface, but has
access to the PXI backplane power supplies via on-board fuses.

Power Supply
All four PXI system voltages are available (+3.3V, +5V & ±12V).
Up to 5A for +3.3V and +5V, and 1A for ±12V (within the limit of
the power supply). The power supplies are protected by on-board
fuses; 5A for +3.3V, 5A for +5V, and 1A for ±12V. Special versions
with supplies fused at 1A are available on request.
Power Requirements
Power consumption from the 5V backplane supply is as follows:
0.9W + 0.25W from User 5V.
