Card holder system (MMS103) is a bench-top small size unit used to carry and power any type of BEDO experimental cards. Experimental cards come in standard dimensions in order to be fixed easily to the card base which comes with the same dimensions. Up to 3 card holders can be cascaded to the main unit at the same time for experimentation
- Master Unit Code : (MMS103.1)
- The card holder Includes a 50-pin socket on the upper side of the unit used to connect between the card holder itself and BED main unit (MMS100) using a power/data cable.
- After connecting between the card holder and the main unit; now all types of power supplies are connected to the card holder including DC supplies, AC supplies (single phase & 3-phase) & experimental card is ready to be plugged in to the card base.
- Card base is a black square frame with a groove to facilitate inserting the experimental card.
- The groove helps guides an edge of the experimental card so that the card is aligned with the front connector to be powered on.
- Card holder is equipped with 2 side sliders for smooth movement of the card base.
- Side sliders are equipped with braking end to prevent the card base from being pulled out too much.
- Card base is equipped with miniature moving rods used to move the card base together with the experimental card inserted in two directions:
- Front direction: so, the card can be powered from the front 50 pins connector.
- Back direction: to take out the experimental card inserted and disconnect it from the power source.
- The master card holder unit includes a number of indication LEDs divided into two groups:
- First group (above the 50 pins socket): indicating the connectivity of the 3- phase power supply to the card holder unit.
- Second group (below the 50 pins socket): indicating the connectivity to both DC & single-phase AC power supplies to the card holder unit.
- On the left side of the card holder there is a cascade transfer card used to connect between master card holder and slave card holder.
- Up to 3 card holders can be cascaded to the main unit at the same time for experimentation.
- Slave Unit Code : (MMS103.2)
- Slave card holder is a bench-top small size unit used to carry on and power any type of BEDO experimental cards.
- The card holder Includes a 50-pin connector on the right side of the unit used to connect between the card holder itself as a (slave) and another (master) card holder using a power/data cable.
- • After connecting between a slave card holder and master card holder; now all types of power supplies are connected to the card holder including DC supplies, AC supplies (single phase & 3-phase) & experimental card is ready to be plugged in to the card base.
