System and method for modular controller assembly supporting redundant configurations

摘要

A system includes a head board 14 with a first head processor 52, a first carrier board 66, and a first junction 58. The first carrier board 66 includes a first plurality of connectors 74 configured to communicatively couple the head board 14 to one or more first acquisition modules 60 with a first attachment pattern. The first carrier board 66 is configured in a first simplex or a first redundant configuration based at least in part on the first attachment pattern. The first junction 58 is configured to removably couple the first carrier board 66 with a terminator 59 or to removably couple the first carrier board 66 with a second carrier board 68, 70.
