VME board evolves to latest Pentium processor
Concurrent Technologies now supports the latest Intel Pentium M processor 760, running at 2.0GHz with 533MHz front side bus, on its well-established VP 307/01x VME64 board.
6U CompactPCI Board features Flip-Chip Pentium III
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 VP 307/01x, a single slot SBC, supports up to 1.5Gbyte of DDR ECC SDRAM.
With an onboard PMC site, and expansion for two more PMC sites (all with rear I/O) the VP 307/01x rear I/O functions include dual Gigabit Ethernet, optional VITA 31.1, analogue/digital graphics, keyboard, mouse, RS232/422/485, USB, floppy and EIDE interfaces.
The front panel supports the PMC and analogue/digital graphics, keyboard, mouse interfaces including additional front panel interfaces for USB, RS232/422/485 and Fast Ethernet.
The VP 307/01x is a form, fit and function addition to the VP 305/01x family.
VITA 31.1 (Gigabit Ethernet on VME64 backplanes) provides the system designer with all the features of an embedded system area network using Gigabit Ethernet, without the need for external cables or external Ethernet switches.
The VITA 31.1 standard is the VME equivalent to the mature, tried and tested, CompactPCI PICMG 2.16 standard.
The VP 307/01x provides soldered on the board 512Mbyte of DDR ECC SDRAM that can easily be upgraded to 1.5Gbyte via the onboard memory socket.
To cater for embedded applications there is 32Mbyte of application Flash memory.
For a wider range of applications there is an EIDE P2 interface (up to Ultra-DMA100), plus installed EIDE options for an onboard EIDE 2.5in disk drive, CompactFlash or IBM/Hitachi Microdrive modules, all within a single slot.
Other onboard features available are GPIO bits, speaker interface, PC real-time clock, watchdog timer and long duration timer.
LAN boot firmware is included as well.
A transition module is supplied for applications requiring rear I/O connections.
For ease of integration, the VP 307/01x supports many of today's leading operating systems, including VxWorks, Linux, Windows 2000, Windows NT, Windows XP, Windows XP Embedded, RTX, QNX, Solaris and MS-DOS.
