|
Part #: ADG010 |
This
circuit board allows the burn-in of up to 10 15W or 25W PCI
Express cards simultaneously without the need for a
dedicated computer system.
Thick copper construction maintains low temperatures even
for very high loads, while individually fused and filtered
slots protect boards from surges.
Binding posts are included to allow the connection of
monitoring equipment, bench power supplies or a DMM.
Specifications

compliant
Standard Usage
Connect an ATX power supply to the PCI Express Burn-in
Rack. Be sure to connect both the ATX12V and the
20-pin/24-pin ATX power connectors.
Note: Please ensure that the power supply used is
able to source the total current drawn by all PCI Express
cards being burned-in.
Install
the PCI Express cards to be burned-in into the available
slots on the burn-in rack.
Power on
the PCI Express Burn-in Rack. All functional cards
will be recognized via the two power LEDs per slot that
indicate the condition of the +12V and the +3.3V power
rails. The +12V LED is the light closest to the
connector.
Ensure
that all slots have lit power lights. Unlit power LEDs
indicate an over-current condition on the card that is
installed into that particular slot.
Note: The fuses used to protect each slot will trip at
approximately 6A at room temperature.
Power off
the PCI Express Burn-in Rack once your required burn-in time
has elapsed. Remove the cards.
Recommended
Operating Conditions:
No more than 3.3V @ 3.0A per card or 12V @ 2.0A per card
Current limits are derived from PCI Express specification
limits for 15W and 25W add-in cards. 75W cards are not
supported.
24 pin ATX power supplies are
recommended for high 3.3V draw configurations. The
ATX12V power connection is required for most configurations.
