Overview: The HEPC4 is a full length PCI plug in card with four TIM-40 slots. Connectivity is provided connecting HEPC4 to other Hunt Engineering boards including control signals, JTAG and Comport connections. Both Host comports have individual reset outputs so they can be used to connect to separate C4x systems, or to the same one. One comport can use a PCI "Master mode" transfer giving high performance access using DMA like transfers to and from the PC memory. JTAG Master circuitry enables use of the debugger software available from Hunt Engineering for the HEPC4, allowing debugging of this card or a local slave. All comport connections on the HEPC4 are buffered to ensure reliability. The second generation of Hunt Engineering comport buffering is used, providing increased performance and decreased power consumption over the first generation scheme. Buffered connections are provided for some of the IIOF pins of the TIM-40s, also buffered timer pins for use with Hunt Engineering data acquisition modules. Reset from host another board, auto power up or special UDP reset function on communications boards. The Hunt Engineering API software provides consistent driver support and a consistent interface between our hardware, 3rd Party Software and the user application.
