Concurrent Technologies has announced the release of the PP EMB/P34 Peripheral Slot Controller CPU board, a single slot 6U CompactPCI Board featuring the Flip-Chip Pentium III processor.
Hot-Swap PMC Carrier allows continuous operation
The PP PMC/002 is designed to provide a cost effective and flexible approach to implementing standard and custom I/O requirements using industry standard PMC modules in CompactPCI systems.
The PP 312/01x, a single slot board, supports up to 2Gbyte of DDR ECC SDRAM.
As well as two PMC sites with front and rear I/O, the PP 312/01x supports dual Gigabit Ethernet, PICMG 2.16 (packet switching backplane), PICMG 2.9 (IPMI) and PICMG 2.1 (hot swap).
The PP 312/01x can operate as a system controller board, a peripheral board or as a satellite board (blade) and is a form, fit and function addition to the PP 310/01x family.
As an intelligent PMC carrier with dual 64bit 66MHz PMC sites, the PP 312/01x is ideally suited to intensive I/O or data applications.
Each site supports 3.3 or 5V PCI signalling and is available for user modules, standard PMC or PrPMC modules.
As well as front I/O, the PMC I/O connector signals from both PMC sites are routed to the rear connectors (J4 is not used).
Plus, for faster CompactPCI control/data plane throughput the PP 312/01x can auto-configure, on insertion/power-up, in a system operating at 66MHz backplane PCI signalling speeds.
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 EIDE interface (up to Ultra-DMA100), with installed EIDE options for an onboard EIDE 2.5in disk drive or CompactFlash/IBM (Hitachi) Microdrive carrier, both within a single slot.
Other features available are dual 10Base-T/100Base-TX/1000Base-T Ethernet interfaces, graphics interface, keyboard/mouse interface, floppy disk interface, three RS232 serial channels, a USB port, parallel printer port, PC real-time clock, watchdog timer and long duration timer.
LAN boot firmware is included as well.
For applications requiring rear I/O connections a transition module is available.
For ease of integration, the PP 312/01x supports many of today's leading operating systems, including VxWorks, Linux, Windows 2000, Windows NT, Windows XP Embedded, Solaris and QNX.
