  • Memory Expansion: Flexible mezzanine-based memory expansion.
  • VME Interface: Full VME64 compliance with 2eSST support.

Application Scenarios
Ideal for telecommunications, industrial automation, and test and measurement.

Performance Parameters

  • Clock Speed: High-frequency PowerPC 603e operation.
  • Bus Bandwidth: Optimized for VME64 block transfers.

Material Composition
High-Tg industrial PCB with gold-plated VME connectors and precision SMT assembly.

Structural Characteristics
6U VME single-board computer with front panel I/O and status indicators.

Working Principle
The PowerPC 603e manages local resources via the PCI local bus, bridging to the VME backplane via a VMEbus interface controller.

Installation Requirements
Insert into a 6U VME chassis. Ensure proper grounding of the chassis.

Usage Precautions
Always use ESD protection. Do not force the board into the backplane slot.
