    VITA is accepting registrations to be a member of a public review Consensus Body for voting to revise these standards. You do not have to be a VITA member to participate in this Consensus Body. The response deadline to register for this consensus body is: July 19, 2021

    REVISION OF EXISTING STANDARD

    Under ANSI and VITA rules every 5 years an approved standard must be reaffirmed, revised, placed in stabilized maintenance or withdrawn. These standards have been revised, hence they have been put forth for approval of the revisions.

    ANSI/VITA 65.0-2019: OpenVPX System Standard

    AbstractThe OpenVPX System Standard was created to bring versatile system architectural solutions to the VPX market. Based on the extremely flexible VPX family of standards, the OpenVPX standard uses Plug-In Module mechanical, connectors, thermal, communications protocols, utility, and power definitions provided by specific VITA standards to define a series of Slot, Backplane, Module, and Standard Development Chassis Profiles. This edition adds additional Slot, Backplane, and Module Profiles. Adds use of VITA 46.30 and VITA 46.31 connectors. Adds additional Connector Modules (as tables in VITA 65.1). Adds additional protocols. Makes some other improvements.

    ANSI/VITA 65.1-2019: OpenVPX System Standard - Profile Tables

    AbstractThis standard documents variations of Slot, Backplane, and Modules Profiles. As part of the Slot Profile Description, there are also some Connector Modules defined. This document is primarily tables which are referenced by VITA 65.0.

    Stakeholders: Anyone building or using VPX boards or systems.

    HOW TO APPLY FOR THE CONSENSUS BODY

    Currently, this consensus body needs voting members from the following interest categories in order to be able to proceed with this process.

    Title: ANSI/VITA 49.0-2015, VITA Radio Transport (VRT) Standard

    Abstract: The VITA Radio Transport (VRT) standard defines a transport-layer protocol designed to promote interoperability between RF (radio frequency) receivers and signal processing equipment in a wide range of applications. These include spectral monitoring, communications, radar, and others. In support of this variety of applications, the VRT protocol provides a variety of formatting options that allow the transport layer to be optimized for each application. VRT also enables high-precision timestamping to provide time synchronization between multiple receiver channels.

    Abstract: This document describes an open standard for VITA 63.0 Hyperboloid Alternative Connector for VPX. This standard provides an alternative connector to the one specified in the VITA 46.0 VPX Baseline Standard. Because the 46.0 and the 63.0 connectors are not intermateable, a VITA 63.0 module will not plug into a VITA 46.0 backplane and vice versa. However, the VITA 63.0 draft standard provides VPX users with the flexibility to choose a VPX module and backplane connector combination for their specific application requirements.

    Abstract: This document describes an open standard for “Serial FPDP”, a high-speed low-latency serial communications protocol for use in high-speed data transfer applications, typically using a fiber optic link. As the name implies, it is directly related to Standard Front Panel Data Port (FPDP), deriving its serial protocol from the defined protocol and control signals of FPDP. This Serial FPDP standard supports seven link speeds: 1.0625 Gbaud, 2.125, 2.5, 4.25, 5.0, 8.5, and 10.0 Gbaud. These seven link speeds can support data transfer rates in excess of 105 MBps, 210 MBps, 247 MBps, 420 MBps, 494 MBps, 840 MBps, and 988 MBps respectively.
