Design and Implementation of a Kind of Redundant Control Computer Based on CPCI Bus

Abstract:

This paper proposes new approaches to a kind of redundant design method to control computers based on CPCI bus, which discusses the choice of redundancy model and system principle. The reliability design is the key element of the system design, as the requirement for high reliability of general users to control computer system. It introduces in detail the interlocking theory and design method, the switching control circuit design and the data sharing model. In the end we conduct reliability analysis on the redundant control computer system from the aspect of the mean time between failures (MTBF) and availability. The redundant design approach effectively improves the reliability of the control computer system, and test and application prove that the control computer can meet the requirement for reliability.
