January 2007 -
Concurrent Technologies announces the release of their next generation
of dual PMC Carrier Board for VME based applications. The AD CR3/PMC, a
non-intelligent dual PMC carrier board, is designed to provide extra PMC
sites to enable standard and custom I/O requirements to be implemented
using industry standard PMC modules in VME systems. The AD CR3/PMC
enables system I/O, graphics, data processing and network interfaces to
be added to the existing functionality of a range of Concurrent
Technologies’ VME Single Board Computers (SBC). Extended temperature
options are available.
The AD CR3/PMC accommodates two single or one dual width, 32 or 64-bit, PMC
modules conforming to the IEEE 1386 standard. Both PMC sites support
33/66MHz, 3.3V PCI signaling, and both sites support dual function
modules and non-Monarch processor PMC modules. I/O from each of the PMC
sites can be taken through the front panel or through the rear panel
using the P2 connector (PMC site 1) and the optional P0 connector (PMC
site 2). The I/O pin mapping is compliant with ANSI/VITA 35-2000 P4V0-64
and P4V264ac PMC I/O wiring standards. As an option the AD CR3/PMC will
also support, alongside the two PMC sites, an onboard EIDE disk drive
and/or onboard CompactFlash™ drive. The EIDE interface connects to an
external EIDE controller, available on most Concurrent Technologies VME
host SBCs.
The
AD CR3/PMC PMC sites’ PCI bus communicates with the VME host SBC via an
existing PMC or XMC site on the host SBC via a PCI Express™ interface. |
