Ideal software development and device prototyping platform for users to start immediately on their multimedia-based application device development.
The VPX3-125's integral high-speed backplane and PMC/XMC connectivity allows for multigigabyte-per-second data flows from board-to-board through the backplane interface and from the backplane to PMC/XMC site supporting the acquisition, processing, and distribution of sensor data such as video, radar, and sonar data.
A rich I/O complement includes two gigabit Ethernet ports, four serial channels, up to 8bit of discrete digital I/O, a USB 2.0 port and a PMC/XMC site with 64bit I/O mapped to the backplane.
The VPX3-125 is designed for military harsh-environment applications, and is offered in air- and conduction-cooled configurations.
It comes with single or dual PA Semi Power Architecture cores at 1.5GHz and provides up to 1Gbyte of DDR2 SDRAM.
Software available for the board includes VxWorks 6.x BSP and Driver Suite supporting Workbench 2.x IDE.
The SBC is built in conformance with Curtiss-Wright's Continuum Software Architecture (CSA), providing a comprehensive suite of system debug, exerciser and update functions, BIT and nonvolatile memory sanitisation function.
