VMETRO in Houston is delivering the Phoenix M6000 VXS (VITA-41) intelligent I/O controller with dual PMC/XMC sites. Phoenix is a family of products for real-time multiprocessors with high-speed serial communications. The Phoenix M6000 is VXS-enabled and can integrate into VMETRO’s existing Phoenix VXS systems to provide an embedded system controller (with a PowerPC 440SP CPU), intelligent PMC/XMC carrier, or high-performance data recording blade. The Phoenix M6000 is optimized for moving data in embedded applications where high data throughput is essential, such as military and aerospace intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance like ELINT, COMINT, SIGINT, SAR (radar), MTI and SDR, including numerous recording applications. With support for 133 MHz PCI-X and x8 PCI Express, the M6000 can move data at over 800 megabytes per second from the PMC sites to memory. XMC module support for the Phoenix M6000 already includes the VMETRO SFM, a quad Serial-FPDP XMC, and the AdvancedIO Systems V1020, a 10 Gigabit Ethernet XMC with intelligent protocol acceleration and a FPGA for real-time packet processing. AdvancedIO and VMETRO worked together to integrate the V1020 onto the M6000 to enable 10-gigabit Ethernet in embedded applications in a simple and straight forward manner.
