MVME7100 processor

Description

The Artesyn Embedded Technologies MVME7100, featuring the system-on-chip MPC864xD
processor, offers a growth path for VMEbus customers with applications on the previous
generation of VME, specifically the MPC74xx processors. The system-on-chip implementation
offers power/thermal, reliability, and lifecycle advantages not typically found in alternative
architectures.
The Artesyn MVME7100 single-board computer (SBC) helps OEMs of industrial, medical, and
defense/aerospace equipment add performance and features for competitive advantage while
still protecting the fundamental investment in VMEbus and related technologies. Customers
can keep their VMEbus infrastructure (chassis, backplanes, and other VMEbus and PMC
boards) while improving performance and extending the lifecycle. Also, the extended lifecycle of
Artesyn computing products helps reduce churns in development and support efforts resulting
from frequent product changes.
The faster processor and 2eSST VMEbus interface combine to offer significant performance
improvement. New cost-effective peripherals can be integrated easily using USB interfaces.
Extended temperature (-40 °C to +71 °C) variants support a wide range of operating and
storage temperatures in addition to increased tolerances for shock. This enables the boards to
operate in harsh environments while maintaining structural and operational integrity
