Samtec VITA 57.1 FMC Extender Card is designed for placement between FPGA carrier cards and FMC modules to increase board-to-board spacing. This increased space can be used for additional I/O expansion during development. The extender card features a VITA 57.1 FMC form factor with a high pin count (HPC) VITA 57.1 FMC male connector and an HPC VITA 57.1 FMC female connector. The card provides direct pass-through connectivity for all 400 pins from the HPC male to HPC female connectors. It also offers optimized SI performance via Samtec Final Inch® BOR PCB trace routing for HPC connectors. Samtec VITA 57.1 FMC Extender Card features a cost-effective solution for extending the life of FPGA carrier card HPC connectors used as test platforms.
