PMC Packs Multimedia Features

Described as a unique category of multi-media PMC, the Sirena/PMC provides audio I/O, video capture/display, graphic display up to 1,900 x 1,200, and a USB 2.0 controller on a standard card. The PMC employs the company's 128-bit Borealis graphics processor and supports 2D, 3D, OpenGL, and DirectX-compatible displays in Solaris, Linux, Windows, LynxOS, and VxWorks environments. Manufactured exclusively for the company, the Borealis is said to be immune to PC graphics chip market life cycles. Other PMC features include 16 MB (32 MB optional) of display SGRAM and support for all currently available PMC interfaces from 32-bit, 33 MHz PCI to 64-bit, 133 MHz PCI-X. Pricing for a standard configuration is $866 each/100. For more details, contact Debie Burford at PERITEK, Oakland, CA. (800) 281-4567.
