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.
It provides system engineers with a smooth, low risk, migration strategy to meet higher performance computing requirements.
Depending on the application performance increases in the region of 50% are expected.
The board uses the low power 500 MHz Pentium III module with MMX technology, 32 Kbytes internal cache and 256 Kbytes secondary cache operating at internal clock frequency of the processor.
Intel's 82440BX chipset provides supports for a 100MHz front side memory bus with up to 512 Mbytes of high speed S-DRAM.
Eliminating the need for fans and the careful selection of extended life cycle components with high MTBF ensures a robust design with high reliability and continuity of supply.
The board shares the same feature set as its predecessor which includes a high speed Wide Ultra-2 SCSI interface using the Symbios Logic 53C895 device, a single PMC host expansion slot, 8 Mbytes of application Flash EPROM, 512 Kbytes of BIOS Flash, two RS-232 serial channels and PS/2 keyboard.
For compatibility with legacy software the board can be populated with a variety of different Ethernet controllers including 21143 10/100BaseT.
Further I/O expansion capability is provided via the use of an optional PMC carrier, which can be fitted to the board.
The CP PSE/P3 supports iRMX, UnixWare, VxWorks and Windows NT operating systems and is designed to run existing Multibus II software applications without modification.
