1.6GHz Pentium® M, CompactPCI® Dual PMC Host Board
Concurrent Technologies is pleased to announce their single slot Pentium M based CompactPCI dual PMC Host board. The PP 310/01x supports the 1.6GHz Intel® Pentium M processor with up to 2 Gbytes 200MHz DDR ECC SDRAM.  To give better I/O performance, and for lower power consumption, Concurrent Technologies chose the ServerWorks™ GC-LE chipset. As well as two PMC sites with front and rear I/O, the PP 310/01x supports dual Gigabit Ethernet (via a PCI-X bus), PICMG® 2.16 (Packet Switching Backplane), PICMG 2.9 (IPMI) and PICMG 2.1 (hot swap). The PP 310/01x can operate as a system controller board, a peripheral board or as a satellite board (blade) and is front and rear plug compatible with Concurrent Technologies’ popular PP 110/01x family.

PMC Single/Dual Channel Ultra160 SCSI Controller
Concurrent Technologies introduces its new low power PMC based single/dual channel Ultra160 SCSI controller, capable of SCSI synchronous data transfer rates of up to 160 Mbytes/s. The SC PMC/160 provides board options of either one or two independent Ultra160 SCSI channels by taking full advantage of the LSI53C10x0R Ultra160 SCSI controller family. The SC PMC/160 will i) improve CPU utilization, ii) maximize PCI bus transfer efficiency, iii) maximize SCSI I/O transfer reliability and iv) maximize SCSI drive compatibility. Supporting a wide range of operating systems, the SC PMC/160 is suitable for storage applications such as server systems, distributed computing, video-on-demand or image/signal processing.

High Performance Commercial/Extended Temperature Pentium III Dual PMC VME Carrier
Concurrent Technologies is extending the operating temperature of its popular high performance VP 110/01x; a VME based dual PMC intelligent carrier that is ideally suited to intensive I/O or data applications. There are now four single slot product versions, all using the Low Voltage Intel® Pentium III Processor 512K. The two extended temperature versions are the 800MHz VP 110/010-K operating over -40°C to +85°C (humidity sealed) and the 800MHz VP 110/010-E operating over -25°C to +70°C. The VP 110/01x, the commercial version, uses either the 933MHz or 800MHz processor operating over 0°C to +55°C. As well as front I/O, the PMC rear I/O signals, from both PMC sites, are routed to P2 and P0. An on-board expansion connector supports an optional dual PMC carrier board, giving four PMC sites in two slots.
