Card effects PCI Bus high speed analogue output
For industrial PCI Bus applications where high-speed, continuous analogue output or real-time waveform functions are required, an advanced analogue output card is effective.
Using this standard solution is a much faster, easier way to bring applications to market than the traditional process of selecting hardware elements and integrating the final system with much effort spent on system qualification, compatibility and test cycle.
The MIC-3369A is a highly integrated and cost-effective CompactPCI single board computer built on the Intel Pentium M processor.
It is an ideal application blade for integration with products that have high performance and low power consumption as key requirements.

The MIC-3369A has been optimized for the Intel Pentium M processor and Intel E7501 chipset which deliver a compelling 3.2 GB/s bandwidth across a 400 MHz front side bus.
The Pentium M incorporates 32 KB of level 1 cache, 1 MB/2 MB of level 2 advanced transfer cache and up to 3.2 GB/s of bandwidth across dual data rate memory channels.
The MIC-3369A supports up to 2 GB of ECC DDR-200 on-board memory.
With performance in mind, the MIC-3369A design makes extensive use of Intel's latest I/O controller hub technology and provides 64-bit data buses throughput.
The on-board dual Gigabit Ethernet controller is connected via a 64-bit/133 MHz PCI-X for maximum sustained packet throughput.
In addition to a full array of industry standard I/O features, including an on-board 2.5" hard disk and two USB ports, the MIC-3369A also provides one 64-bit/66 MHz PMC site for onboard I/O expansion making it flexible enough meet the most demanding I/O processing needs.
The MIC-3369A can be used in either a system slot or a peripheral slot, making it an ideal choice for applications that require compliance with PICMG 2.16 Packet Switching Backplane specification for Gigabit speed switched-fabric interconnection between blades.
The board is designed in compliance with the PICMG 2.9 specification to work with remote system and platform management modules.
With all these features and inherent hot swap functionality, the MIC-3369A is perfectly matched for mission critical telecom and data communication applications where high availability is essential, such as the 3G wireless infrastructure, VoIP, media gateways, soft switches and triple-play server clusters.
The MIC-3042A comes with a built-in high-quality backplane that provides 64-bit/66 MHz PCI bus speed.
The standard configuration includes a PICMG 2.5 compatibleH.110 bus, which is open standard architecture for telecom solutions.
Moreover, the MIC-3042A complies with PICMG 2.16 and can be used as a blade server or a media blade carrier. Request a free brochure from Advantech (UK) ...
