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 PP 410/03x can access up to 4Gbyte of DDR2-400 ECC SDRAM at up to 6.4Gbyte/s.
And for I/O flexibility there are two high performance PMC sites supporting both front and rear I/O, three Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, PICMG 2.16 (Ethernet fabric), PICMG 2.9 (IPMI) and PICMG 2.1 (hot swap).
The PP 410/03x can operate as a system controller board, a peripheral board or as a satellite board (blade).

Concurrent Technologies has announced the release of its new single slot 6U CompactPCI System Controller Board featuring an 850MHz Intel Flip-Chip PGA 370 Pentium III processor in a single slot.
Intelligent PMC host I/O board for VME users
The latest single-slot 6U VME board from Concurrent Technologies is a PMC host board featuring either a 566 or 733MHz Celeron processor.
This combination of high performance data processing and a wealth of I/O ensure that the boards are ideal for intensive data processing applications within the telecommunications, defence, security, telemetry, scientific and aerospace markets.
Extended temperature variants are also available.
The PP 410/03x board supports the 2.0GHz Intel Core Duo T2500 (in a socket) or the 1.66GHz Intel Core Duo L2400 processor (soldered); both processors support 2Mbyte L2 cache (shared between the cores).
By using appropriate operating systems and applications software, a computing performance increase of up to twice an Intel Pentium M processor is achievable, and yet the Intel Thermal Design Power (TDP) for the 2.0GHz dual core processor is 31W versus 27W TDP for the 2.0GHz Intel Pentium M processor 760.
The Intel E7520 server class chipset and Intel 6300ESB ICH are used to complement the processor to achieve a high performance, yet low power, core architecture.
"The combination of the Intel Core Duo processors and the Intel E7520 chipset provides a perfect performance upgrade path to our existing server class CompactPCI product line", commented Glen Fawcett, CEO, Concurrent Technologies.
"Intel continues to provide an excellent, long term road map for processors and chipsets".
"We believe this combination will be particularly well received in high-end communications applications where enhanced I/O capability is required as well as superior CPU performance".
As an intelligent PMC carrier with dual PMC sites, the PP 410/03x is ideally suited to intensive I/O or data applications.
Each PMC site is controlled via its own PCIbus.
PMC site 2 supports up to 100MHz PCI-X operation and supports a x8 PCI Express XMC interface.
PMC site 1 supports up to 66MHz PCI operation.
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 fitted).
A wide range of onboard I/O is available: the board supports three 10/100/1000Mbit/s Ethernet interfaces (one front and two rear) and the front panel also supports a USB 2.0, RS232, graphics, keyboard and mouse interfaces.
As well as dual PMC rear I/O, the rear panel supports three more USB 2.0s, up to two more RS232s, two SATA150, stereo audio line in/out, parallel printer port and 3.5-inch floppy disk interfaces.
Other features included are a watchdog timer, long duration timer, LAN boot firmware and options for an onboard 2.5in EIDE hard disk drive and/or CompactFlash EIDE storage.
For applications requiring rear I/O connections a variety of transition modules are also available.
For ease of integration, the PP 410/03x family of boards support many of today's leading operating systems, including Linux, Windows Server 2003, Windows 2000, Windows XP Embedded, Windows XP, VxWorks and QNX.
