SKU: 460F-01

The PCCtest 460 is designed to test the full functionality of the PC Card/CardBus interface. Since the 1995 and subsequent releases of the PC Card Standard, the number of different cards that can be supported in a single machine has drastically increased. It is not uncommon for a PC Card slot to support 32-bit CardBus, 16-bit PC Card, Zoomed Video, 5V and 3.3V cards. Testing this slot involves inserting as many as 3-4 cards to verify full functionality. The PCCtest 460 is the only test card designed to emulate all types of cards in a single unit. Housed in a type II card, the PCCtest 460 can test the 32-bit CardBus, 16-bit PC Card and the Zoomed Video interfaces. In CardBus mode, the PCCtest 460 is capable of responding to target memory, I/O and configuration cycles. Master mode I/O and memory cycles can be generated under program control. Control, Address and Data signals can be latched to verify correct access. In 16-bit mode, the PCCtest 460 can verify all address, data, control and status signals. 16-bit testing is supported at 3.3V and 5V. From 16-bit mode, the PCCtest can be configured for Zoomed Video(ZV) operation. In ZV mode, the PCCtest will generate a ZV data pattern designed to verify the ZV bus. An audio test pattern is generated simultaneously to verify the ZV audio signals. Selection of CardBus or 16-bit interface is accomplished through an external configuration header. This header plugs into the PCCtest's 15-pin I/O connector. An optional external configuration unit, the PCCtest 455, provides for program control of 16-bit, Zoomed Video or CardBus interface.
