Carrier Board External Interfaces

PGP/ETH

• This SFP interface is the PGP or ETH (depending on which firmware is loaded)
• When ETH firmware is load, the carrier board Ethernet PHY is 1000BASE-SX
  
  

• The total power draw on the +12VDC is about 10W (+12VDC @ 0.8 A)
  
  • Carrier Board is ~5W
  • Digital Daughter board is ~5W
• To prevent the boards from overheating, we require cool air to be blown from a fan
  • Using a thermal electric cool on the ASIC would be an acceptable thermal management solution as well
