Applied Materials 0100-71275
Product Name
VME P2 Backplane and CVD Communication Interface Module.
Product Introduction
Public sources list this number as an AKT VME P2 backplane or communication interface module for 60K CVD systems, providing interboard data exchange and power distribution. Some sources also describe it more generally as a vacuum chamber control module, so confirm the exact role from the system drawing.
Detailed content
Technical Specifications
Manufacturer identification: AKT Industries / Applied Materials in supplier sources.
Platform: AKT 60K CVD and related VME chassis; some references include compatibility checking with other AMAT platforms.
Supply: 24 V DC plus/minus 5 percent in one P2 backplane listing.
Power consumption: less than 20 W in the P2 backplane listing.
Communication: RS485 in the P2 backplane listing; broader protocol support depends on installed system software.
Dimensions: 150 by 150 by 40 mm in one supplier listing.
Operating temperature: supplier listings vary; P2 source lists minus 20 to plus 70°C, while vacuum control sources may state different ranges, so verify nameplate.
Storage temperature: minus 40 to plus 85°C in P2 listing.
Humidity: 5 to 95 percent relative humidity, non condensing.
Protection: IP65 in one P2 listing; use actual enclosure rating for installation.
Compliance: UL, CE, RoHS in P2 listing.
Functional Features
P2 backplane data routing between VME cards.
Power distribution to connected modules.
RS485 communication and protocol conversion in listed configurations.
Redundant or stabilized power architecture in some supplier descriptions.
Structural Characteristics
Backplane or interface module with VME P2 connectors, communication ports, power terminals, and rigid chassis mounting hardware. Vacuum control interpretations may use different sensors and connector layouts, so physical verification is required.
Working Principle
The module connects to the VME P2 bus, transfers address, data, and control signals between cards, and supplies conditioned 24 V distribution. Communication circuits exchange process or chassis data with the host controller and connected I/O.
Application Scenarios
AKT 60K CVD cluster control racks.
VME chassis requiring P2 signal and power distribution.
CVD process synchronization and interboard communication.
Spare backplane or interface replacement where the BOM specifies 0100-71275.
Installation Requirements
Confirm chassis model, P2 connector layout, and card compatibility.
Verify 24 V DC supply capacity and grounding scheme.
Seat backplane connectors fully and check mechanical alignment.
Validate RS485 termination and address settings before operation.
Usage Precautions
Do not mix P2 backplane and vacuum controller interpretations without original drawings.
Avoid energized backplane service.
Inspect connectors for contamination, oxidation, and mechanical damage.
Verify revision and software compatibility before returning the CVD system to automatic mode.
