Description

A12c, VMEbus 6U, single-board computer, CPU MPC8245-300MHz, 2MB Flash, 2 PMC slots, -40..+85°C Simple Type: CPU Board The A12 is a single-board computer for embedded applications based on the Kahlua II PowerPC. It can be used as a master or slave in a VMEbus environment or as a stand-alone card. The A12 provides up to 1MB local dual-ported SRAM for slave access and communication between the local CPU and another VMEbus master. The A12 comes with the MPC8245 PowerPC with 300MHz clock frequency and a local 32-bit/33-MHz PCI data bus. It is a complete state-of-the-art SBC offering DRAM, Flash and CompactFlash memory, dual Fast Ethernet, 4 COMs, USB, IDE and keyboard/mouse interfaces as well as an optional onboard hard disk. In addition, the A12a CPU board can be equipped with PC-MIP mezzanine cards. PC-MIP is the format of choice for all types of workstation I/O such as graphics, Ethernet or additional serial lines. The modular combination of I/O functionality on a single-board computer allows to build up tailored control systems which appear as customized solutions based on standard components. Depending on the kind of I/O requirements, further standard versions of A12 are available for other mezzanine standards. The A12 single-board computer is partly compatible with the MVME2100 board by Motorola. Download the datasheet (PDF)
