AMFELTEC Corporation Launches PCI to PMC Adapter

TORONTO, ONTARIO–(Marketwire – April 22, 2009) – AMFELTEC Corporation, a leading provider of equipment dedicated to hardware/software development and for electronic design manufacturing, has extended there PCI/PCI Express Extender Suite by design and release for full production “PCI to PMC adapter.”

PCI to PMC Adapter is a very popular tool that allows the user plug in standard PMC interface base board to the regular PCI base computer and enabling full access to the add-on boards. While inside the host system, boards can be replaced without having to power down the host system during product development or production cycle. In addition to standard features offered by competitors such as local and external power sources, over voltage and over current protection, AMFELTEC has introduced a number of unique features:

– PCI to PMC Adapter implements the patented “Acute extender card” technology. This feature allows testing of different electronic components (boards) without limiting external cable access to the test board.

– The “PCI to PMC Adapter” includes integrated Universal Byte Blaster to support loading/programming FPGA/CPLD from the different vendors as well as to program I2C/SPI based devices.

“The AMFELTEC PCI/PCI Express Extender Suite has come about from years of engineering experience. This suite has been used extensively in house to develop various electronic products. It will certainly be very useful to the engineering community”, says AMFELTEC Corporation President and CTO Michael Feldman. “In today’s market PMC interface holds a significant place and we see it as a very useful tool to provide access to the PMC devices via PCI bus of the regular personal computer. In anticipation of this market trend AMFELTEC developed “PCI to PMC Adapter.”

The PCI to PMC Adapter is in full production today with the price $560.00 USD.

Standard package for “PCI to PMC Adapter” includes:

– User manual
– Full schematic
– VHDL source code for programmable logic
– Open-source software under Windows, Linux and FreeBSD OS
