XCalibur1301

Freescale MPC8640D Processor-Based Conduction- or Air-Cooled 6U cPCI Module

The XCalibur1301 is a high-performance 6U CompactPCI single board, multiprocessing, computer that is ideal for ruggedized systems requiring high-bandwidth processing and low power consumption. With dual PowerPC e600 cores running at up to 1.25 GHz, the MPC8640D delivers enhanced performance with AltiVec technology and IEEE 754 dual-precision floating point and offers efficiency for today's network information processing and other embedded computing applications.

The XCalibur1301 provides two separate channels of up to 4 GB (2 GB each) DDR2-533 ECC SDRAM, two PrPMC/XMC slots, as well as 256 MB of NOR flash (with redundancy). The XCalibur1301 also supports four Gigabit Ethernet ports, I²C, PMC I/O, XMC I/O, and RS-232/RS-422/RS-485 serial ports out the front panel or J5 connector.

The XCalibur1301 is a powerful, feature-rich solution for the next generation of compute intensive embedded applications. Operating system support for Wind River VxWorks, Green Hills INTEGRITY, QNX Neutrino, and Linux are available.
