The A6pci7508 is a 6U size single slot width high performance Compact PCI single board computer with an onboard Power PC® G4 MPC7447A™ processor by Freescale.
CPU
The operating clock of the G4 MPC7447A™ is 1 GHz, and it has an internal 64KB L1 cache and a 512 KB L2 cache.
Memory
The main memory consists of the latest DDR2-SDRAM, and supports CPU and I/O power across a powerful 3.2 GB/s bandwidth. It also supports ECC, enabling correction of single bit data errors, combining high reliability with performance.
I/O Interfaces
As a front panel I/O, the A6pci7508 is equipped with 1 ch RS-232C serial ports, 2 ch gigabit Ethernet, one onboard CompactFLASH socket, and two PMC (PCI Mezzanine Card) slots.
You can choose from a CPU operating clock of either 600 MHz or 1 GHz, and the memory sizes of 512 MB or 1 GB. The A6pci7508 can handle a wide range of customer requirements.
Operating Modes
The A6pci7508 can be used either as a Compact PCI system slot or a peripheral slot. The board recognizes the slot type internally, which allows the operation mode for the bridge IC and the status for terminating resistance to be changed automatically. It can be used as a single central CPU but also multiple CPU boards can be added in response to increased processing loads.
