Cornet Technology, Inc. Introduces a High Performance per Watt VME64x PowerPC Single Board Computer.This Board is the First VME (Virtual Machine Environment) An operating system from Fujitsu Services (formerly ICL) that runs on its Series 39 mainframes. Introduced in 1975, VME is a comprehensive product that provides a variety of utilities for datacenter operations. 64x PowerPC Hardware to Be Based on Tundra Tsi109 Controller SPRINGFIELD, Va. -- Cornet Technology Communications, a division of Cornet Technology, Inc., today announced its latest VME64x PowerPC single board computer the Celero CVME-7448ST. This board incorporates a newer host-bridge controller (Tundra Tsi109) and DDR (Double Data Rate) Refers to an SDRAM memory chip that increases performance by doubling the effective data rate of the frontside bus. For more details, see SDRAM. DDR - Double Data Rate Random Access Memory 2 memory technology to give new life to COTS VME64x single board computers still widely used in real-time/embedded military and aerospace programs. The use of the latest host-bridge controller technology lets the CVME-7448ST offer much higher performance per watt - a key consideration of military embedded applications with tight power budgets, and improved signal integrity providing significant improvement over older generations of VME PowerPC single board computers. By incorporating the latest DDR2 technology and the Tundra controller into the design, memory latency In computing, memory latency is the time between initiating a request for a byte or word in memory until it is retrieved. If the data is not in the processor's cache, it takes longer to obtain them, as the processor will have to communicate with the external memory cells. 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) that require high performance, low power consumption and superior reliability. Since the board supports both Linux and VxWorks 6.3 operating systems Operating systems can be categorized by technology, ownership, licensing, working state, usage, and by many other characteristics. In practice, many of these groupings may overlap. , embedded designers can easily port their existing algorithms and code. The board's design offers 512MB DDR2 SDRAM, 256MB Flash, two PMC (1) See Portable Media Center. (2) (PCI Mezzanine Card) A PCI-based mezzanine card that is widely adapted to VMEbus, CompactPCI and PCI cards. sites for I/O (Input/Output) The transfer of data between the CPU and a peripheral device. Every transfer is an output from one device and an input to another. See PC input/output. I/O - Input/Output expansion, two high-speed Gigabit Ethernet ports, two serial ports, and two USB USB in full Universal Serial Bus Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily connected to a computer. 2.0 ports. CVME-7448ST will be available in late October 2007. Price starts at $4,600. An extended temperature version is available. Cornet Technology offers a 30-day evaluation to qualified new customers. Cornet Technology Communication's embedded computer products target designers that are still designing VME64 systems.
