SBS Technologies Announces Conduction Cooled 3U CompactPCI Single Board Computer for Demanding Environments; cPCI SBC Delivers High Performance with Low Power Requirements.Business Editors/High-Tech Writers Military and Aerospace Electronics East 2004 Show BALTIMORE, Md.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 18, 2004 SBS Technologies, Inc. -- Ultra Low Voltage (ULV ULV Ultra Low Voltage ULV University of La Verne (La Verne, CA) ULV Ultra Low Volume ULV Ultra Light Vliegtuig ULV Unmanned Launch Vehicle ULV UltraLink Viewer (Rose Electronics) ) Intel(R) Celeron(R) 650 MHz (MegaHertZ) One million cycles per second. It is used to measure the transmission speed of electronic devices, including channels, buses and the computer's internal clock. A one-megahertz clock (1 MHz) means some number of bits (16, 32, 64, etc. processor -- 128 MB SDRAM (Synchronous DRAM) A type of dynamic RAM (DRAM) memory chip that has been widely used since the late 1990s. SDRAM chips eliminated wait states by dividing the chip into two cell blocks and interleaving data between them. -- 512 KB Boot Flash -- Dual Ethernet and USB Ports Today at the Military and Aerospace Electronics East 2004 Show, SBS Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: SBSE SBSE Society of Building Science Educators ), a leading provider of embedded computing technology, introduced a new 3U CompactPCI Conduction Cooled Single Board Computer to its line of Intel(R) processor-based products. This new SBS See Small Business Server. single slot CR3 computer is ideal for industrial and military applications, process control and other embedded/OEM systems that operate in harsh environments. "The CR3 is designed for the demanding environments common in military and industrial applications," said Wayne McGee, General Manager of the SBS Technologies Single Board Computer design center in North Carolina North Carolina, state in the SE United States. It is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean (E), South Carolina and Georgia (S), Tennessee (W), and Virginia (N). Facts and Figures Area, 52,586 sq mi (136,198 sq km). Pop. . "It offers robust extended temperature computing capabilities for critical systems in a cost-effective, small form factor without requiring extensive development time. SBS engineers have designed this board to have maximum flexibility and high reliability to meet the challenging requirements of industrial and military life cycles." The 3U conduction cooled CR3 uses an Ultra Low Voltage (ULV) Intel(R) Celeron(R) processor. The ULV Celeron Processor operates with a core clock speed of 650 MHz, meeting performance needs of the CR3 while offering the benefit of low power consumption, using only +1.1V when operating at 650 MHz. Built for harsh and demanding operating locations, the CR3 has extended shock and vibration tolerances and contains an on-board temperature sensor to monitor operation within a wide temperature range of -40 degrees/+85 degrees C. "The rugged SBS CR3 single board computer is an excellent example of the type of application that benefits from the Ultra Low Voltage Intel(R) Celeron(R) processor. The CR3 single board computer is designed to operate reliably in demanding operating conditions and is currently the only 3U small form factor board using an Intel Celeron processor," said Steve Sciarappo, director of operations, Embedded Intel Architecture Division, Intel Corporation. The rugged, extended temperature CR3 is equipped with 128 MB of SDRAM and 512 KB of boot flash memory and includes two 10/100Base-T Ethernet ports, two RS-232 serial ports, 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, an IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org) A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields. 1284 parallel port, and front-panel PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports. For increased flexibility, an optional dual CompactFlash storage disk mounted on an XB-CR3-CFIDE Daughter card is available for quick erase and replacement of storage memory in the field. The CR3 offers the versatility of operating as a system controller or peripheral card through the dual-mode functionality of the PCI/PCI Bridge and supports Linux, VxWorks, Windows XP and Windows XP Embedded An enhanced version of Windows XP for compact applications such as PDAs, handhelds and other appliances that use the x86 CPU. It supports such features as CompactPCI and the ability to boot from flash memory or CD-ROM. ; for other operating systems contact SBS. Pricing & Availability The CR3 is available now and pricing is based on configuration. For example, price in OEM (Original Equipment Manufacturer) The rebranding of equipment and selling it. The term initially referred to the company that made the products (the "original" manufacturer), but eventually became widely used to refer to the organization that buys the products and quantities for the CR3 model no. CR30012N is US $5,250. ABOUT SBS TECHNOLOGIES SBS Technologies, Inc., (Nasdaq: SBSE) founded in 1986, designs and builds a wide range of standard and customized embedded computer products.
