cPCI SBC Armed With Two Dual-Core Xeon Processors

For intense processing applications, the PP 421/23x CompactPCI single-board computer employs two 1.66-GHz, dual-core Xeon ULV processors. The four processor cores can access up to 8 GB of DDR2 ECC dual-channel SDRAM. Complementing the processors are the E7520 server-class chipset, which accesses SDRAM at speeds up to 6.4 GB/s, and a 6300ESB ICH (I/O Controller Hub). A PMC site supports both front and rear I/O, two SATA150 interfaces, two graphics interfaces, four Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, PICMG 2.16 (Ethernet switched fabric), PICMG 2.9 (IPMI), and PICMG 2.1 (hot swap). Additionally, the SBC can operate as a system controller or as a satellite (blade) with support for various operating systems including Linux, Windows Server 2003/2000/XP, and QNX.
