Rugged enclosure seals in 6U systems
Comprehensive environmental protection for 6U VMEbus or CompactPCI single board computers is now available in the rugged, single-slot E118 chassis enclosures from Aitech Defense Systems.
The 2ESST capability, combined with the board's low power MPCC7457 G4 PowerPC processor operating at 1.276GHz, provides the highest performance and I/O versatility available in a rugged VME board.
The new C6100, which also offers support for dual PMCs, is ideal for intensive military, aerospace, and industrial applications that require supercomputing levels of performance, as it provides an open standard for convenient and flexible I/O expansion.
The processor incorporates DSP-like AltiVec technology, making the C6100 suitable for a variety of vector processing applications.
In addition, the standard design of the new board enables its installation into any IEEE1101.2 conduction-cooled VME chassis or ANSI/VITA 1-1994 standard air-cooled chassis, providing true commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) versatility for embedded system applications.
The C6100 supports legacy MVME761 and MVME712M I/O modules, provides up to 2Gbyte of DDR ECC protected SDRAM as well as 128Mbyte of onboard programmable user Flash, and features dual Ethernet interfaces, two asynchronous serial ports, real-time clock, four general purpose timers and a watchdog timer.
Pricing for the C6100 starts at $6750.
Delivery is 4-6 weeks ARO.
