Embedded controller allows direct access to ATM
The Interphase 4531, available in the UK from Crellon Microsystems, allows system integrators to access the ATM backbone without requiring an external CSU/DSU.
High performance processors are key in these applications and the MCPN905 features make it especially well suited for the job.
At the heart of the MCPN905 is a 1.0GHz PowerPC MPC7457 processor with Altivec technology for peak performance, up to1.5Gbyte of DDR memory with ECC protection and 1Mbyte of L3 cache.
As well as the dual gigabit Ethernet PICMG 2.16 interface, there is also a third gigabit Ethernet interface for increased connectivity.
The MCPN905 also supports two PMC sites for maximum I/O expansion with PCI-X performance at speed up to 133MHz.
These allow further I/O expansion or the addition of PrPMC offload engines to boost capabilities even further.
