The Maximum Power Consumption has been increased by 5% over the value calculated with the currents shown to
take into account higher allowed values of the crate voltages. The current requirements of the DC222 and DC252
models are only slightly lower than the DC282 case. The differences between the different front end options are also
small; a single Standard or HZ channel pulls ~0.3 A @ +5 V.
The electrical requirements shown above can impose loading limitations in the cPCI crate. In the extreme case where
a PC503 processor is present in an Acqiris crate the following limits apply:

If a third party crate is being used please check that the current drawn at 3.3 V does not sag below the effective PCI
allowed tolerance at the beginning of the acquisition. Acqiris 3-, 5-, and 8-slot crates should be modified at the
factory for use with these modules.
The digitizers can use the PCI Bus at 32-bit − 33 MHz, all models, or at 64-bit − 66 MHz, DC2x2 only . The latter
allows data to be transferred with DMA at average rates up to 350 MB/s with appropriate hardware under Windows
and Linux. Otherwise, the DMA transfer rates are limited to ~100 MB/s. The CompactPCI modules are compatible
for either V I/O = 3.3 V or 5V.
