Dual PIII CompactPCI processor board

23 April 2003 Computer/Embedded Technology

Concurrent Technologies' PP 120/01x a low power dual Pentium III single slot CompactPCI board supporting four individual Gigabit Ethernet channels, uses two 933 MHz Low Voltage Intel Pentium III processors, where each processor supports a 133 MHz front side bus with 512 KB of L2 cache and operates within a 12 W thermal envelope.

The board also features the Serverworks ServerSet III LE core logic, up to 1 GB 133 MHz ECC SDRAM, an Ultra 160 SCSI interface and a 64-bit 66 MHz PMC site. It supports PICMG 2.16 (dual Gigabit Ethernet), PICMG 2.9 (IPMI), PICMG 2.1 and PICMG 2.0 with 33/66 MHz CompactPCI signalling, and can operate in a system control slot or in a peripheral slot with the CompactPCI interface disabled (satellite board). The PP 120/01x is particularly suitable for applications requiring intensive processing capability, especially in multitasking applications, low power consumption, and where the number of available backplane slots is limited.

The PP 120/01x also features an EIDE interface with installed EIDE options for an on-board 2,5" disk drive (up to UDMA100), or a CompactFlash/IBM Microdrive carrier. It has heat sinks for cooling instead of fans. Other features available are a PC realtime clock, floppy disk interface, two RS232 channels, two USB ports, parallel printer port, watchdog timer, keyboard/mouse interface, long duration timer and an Asiliant Technologies 69030 graphics interface.

To facilitate applications requiring rear I/O connections the PP 120/01x is compatible with the optional AD PP4/001 transition module. The PP 120/01x supports Linux, Windows XP/2000/NT and QNX. LAN boot firmware is also supported.
