This technical note describes a cabling standard for connecting multiple SHARC DSPs located on boards that are installed in close proximity to each other in the same system. This standard applies to ADSP-21160 and future SHARC products that use 8-bit link port data transfers.
The document outlines an open systems interconnect cable standard designed to connect multiple ADSP-21160 and future SHARC products that use 8-bit link port data transfers. The standard is based on the Honda 26-pin RMCA-26JL-AD connector, utilizing twelve 50 Ohm coax strands and two 28 AWG stranded wires inside a shield.
| Maximum cable length (without buffering) | one meter |
|---|---|
| Coax strands impedance | 50 Ohm |
| Stranded wire gauge | 28 AWG |
| Logic levels for user-defined signals | 3.8V logic levels and have 5V tolerance |
