Product Details
The XYCOM XVME-100, also marked as PN 70100-001, is a discontinued single-height 3U VMEbus RAM/ROM memory expansion module built for XYCOM legacy VME control racks and embedded industrial systems. This module provides flexible storage expansion for the VME master CPU, supporting up to 1MB RAM, EPROM, mask ROM or 256KB EEPROM, fitted with eight 28/32-pin JEDEC sockets divided into two independent banks of four sockets each. It integrates onboard battery backup circuitry and undervoltage protection that triggers at 4.75V, which retains critical control parameters, runtime setpoints and program data when the main VME power supply fails, preventing data loss and system reset after power interruption. The module follows VMEbus C1 standard, supporting access speed ranging from 100ns to 250ns. Users can adjust on-board jumpers to configure memory type, base address, access timing and backup power mode to avoid address conflicts with other VME boards in the same chassis. It communicates with the host CPU via standard VME bus cycles, supporting reliable read and write operations for real-time control data and firmware storage. The front edge is equipped with LED indicators for power status, memory access and low battery warning, helping technicians quickly diagnose power failure, battery depletion and bus access faults during commissioning and routine maintenance. The PCB adopts industrial-grade components and EMC noise suppression design, which can resist electromagnetic interference from inverters and servo drives, as well as vibration and dust in factory environments. This legacy memory module is mainly supplied as spare replacement and upgrade parts for existing XYCOM VME automation systems. Users need to confirm VME chassis compatibility, memory address mapping and battery condition before installation. A conformal coated version is optional for high humidity, dusty and corrosive industrial sites. This model is widely used in CNC control racks, process DCS stations, test measurement systems and old VME-based automation system retrofit projects.
This vme memory expansion module adopts standard 3U single-height VME rack mount structure. It draws power from the VME backplane. LED indicators display power status, memory activity and low battery alarm for convenient on-site inspection. The operating temperature range is 0°C to 50°C, storage temperature ranges from -40°C to 85°C, relative humidity 5% to 95% non-condensing. It complies with industrial shock, vibration and EMC standards and has CE certifications. It supports memory bank and address configuration backup for fast recovery after hardware replacement.
This XYCOM XVME-100 VME memory module is widely applied in legacy VME control racks and industrial automation upgrade projects. It provides dependable expandable storage and battery-backed data retention for the VME master control system. As a reliable discontinued spare part, the XYCOM XVME-100 retains original VME bus timing and signal compatibility, and effectively reduces the renovation cost of legacy industrial control system maintenance.
