VME64x PowerPC Single Board Computer

Cornet Technology Inc. (Springfield, VA) has announced its latest VME64x PowerPC single board computer called the Celero CVME-7448ST. This board incorporates a newer hostbridge controller (Tundra Tsi109) and DDR2 memory technology. The CVME- 7448ST offers higher performance per watt and improved signal integrity. Memory latency caused by pipeline blockage is eliminated, improving performance by up to 9% and overall power consumption is reduced by up to 6W over boards using older technology.

CVME-7448ST provides a versatile processing platform for sophisticated signal intelligence applications such as image, radar, and sonar processing. Since the board supports both Linux and VxWorks 6.3 operating systems, embedded designers can easily port existing algorithms and code. The board's design offers 512 MB DDR2 SDRAM, 256MB Flash, two PMC sites for I/O expansion, two high-speed Gigabit Ethernet ports, two serial ports, and two USB 2.0 ports.
