XCalibur1003

IBM 750GX Processor-Based Air-Cooled 6U cPCI Module with Marvell Discovery III Bridge

The XCalibur1003 is a 6U CompactPCI single-board computer with a PICMG 2.16 Gigabit Ethernet backplane interface and a 1.0 GHz IBM PowerPC 750GX Processor. It is well-suited for telecom, industrial, and general computing applications. The XCalibur1003 is pinout-compatible with the discontinued Force cPCI-680 and cPCI-690 boards, which makes it an excellent replacement for these products.

The XCalibur1003 provides a highly-configurable processing platform. Its DDR-400 SDRAM provides up to 1 GB of local memory. An optional CompactFlash interface accepts up to 1 GB of non-volatile memory. Two PCI-X PrPMC slots are available for high bandwidth I/O.

Hot swap support allows the XCalibur1003 to be installed into a live system without disrupting CompactPCI bus activity. In addition, system management bus support allows the card to be powered down and reset remotely through the IPMI interface.

For the system designer, the XCalibur1003 provides a feature-rich solution to support the next generation of embedded applications.
