The VP 110/01x intelligent dual PMC host I/O board is the latest addition to the high performance yet low power Intel based VME family from Concurrent Technologies.
CompactPCI storage mixes HDDs and CompactFlash
Enables the integration of SATA300 mass storage drives into a 3U CompactPCI system, where performance, functionality, power, space and cost are key elements.
More power to critical cPCI processing
Single-slot 6U CompactPCI processor board uses the latest high performance mobile dual core processor from the Intel embedded roadmap.
The two extended temperature versions are the 800MHz VP 110/010-K operating over -40 to +85C (humidity sealed) and the 800MHz VP 110/010-E operating over -25 to +70C.
The VP 110/01x, the commercial version, uses either the 933 or 800MHz processor operating over 0 to +55øC.
As well as front I/O, the PMC rear I/O signals, from both PMC sites, are routed to P2 and P0.
An onboard expansion connector supports an optional dual PMC carrier board, giving four PMC sites in two slots.
At the core of the VP 110/01x family is the Low Voltage Intel Pentium III Tualatin processor in a flip-chip package.
The processor supports 512Kbyte of high-speed secondary cache, and in conjunction with the ServerWorks LE chipset provides up to 512Mbyte of soldered 133MHz ECC SDRAM that can easily be upgraded to 1Gbyte via the onboard memory socket.
As with all Concurrent Technologies' designs, heatsinks are used in preference to fans for cooling the processor.
To cater for embedded applications there is 32Mbyte of application Flash memory and 512Kbyte of battery backed SRAM.
For a wider range of applications there is an Ultra-DMA100 EIDE interface; with EIDE options for an onboard EIDE 2.5in disk drive or CompactFlash/IBM Microdrive carrier, all within a single slot.
Other features include: a dual 10Base-T/100Base-TX Ethernet interface, keyboard/mouse interface, PC real-time clock, one RS232 serial channel, a USB port, parallel printer port, watchdog timer and long duration timer.
A P2 or P2/P0 breakout module is provided for applications that require rear I/O.
For ease of integration, the VP 110/01x family supports many of today's leading operating systems, including VxWorks, Linux, LynxOS, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows XP Embedded, Windows NT, RTX, Solaris and MS-DOS.
