CompactPCI Serial

<p>CompactPCI Serial is an industrial standard for modular computer systems. It is based on the established PICMG 2.0 <a href="/facts/CompactPCI/RuyUgoNB">CompactPCI</a> standard, which uses the parallel <a href="/facts/Peripheral_Component_Interconnect/n6CGuFvP">PCI</a> bus for communication among a system's card components. In contrast to this, CompactPCI Serial uses only serial <a href="/facts/Point-to-point_(telecommunications)/RmGgN1Pj">point-to-point connections</a>.
CompactPCI Serial was officially adopted by the PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group <a href="/facts/PICMG/NRHKkbeM">PICMG</a> as PICMG CPCI-S.0 CompactPCI Serial in March 2011. Its mechanical concept is based on the proven standards of IEEE 1101-1-1998 and IEEE 1101-10-1996 (19" technology). CompactPCI Serial includes different connectors that permit very high data rates.
The new technology standard succeeding parallel CompactPCI comprises another specification called PICMG 2.30 CompactPCI PlusIO. This is why CompactPCI Serial and CompactPCI PlusIO as a whole were also called CompactPCI Plus. PICMG's first working title of CompactPCI Serial was CPLUS.0. (See also #Compatibility and Migration.) 
CompactPCI Serial backplanes and chassis are developed by Schroff, <a href="/facts/Elma_Electronic/nRkQlrUN">Elmа</a>, and Pixus Technologies companies, as for the CompactPCI Serial board level electronics – they are developed by MEN Mikro Elektronik, Fastwel, EKF, <a href="/facts/Emerson_Electric/61D4tUUn">Emerson</a> Embedded Computing, <a href="/facts/ADLINK/9RHfUQ4f">ADLINK</a>, and <a href="/facts/Kontron/kHjngLh6">Kontron</a>.
