GE Fanuc introduces Intel Core 2 Duo-based AMC embedded computer

GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms in Charlottesville, Va., is introducing the Telum ASLP11 Advanced Mezzanine Card (AMC) embedded computer, which has as much as 4 gigabytes of ECC memory and an Intel Core 2 Duo L7400 1.5 GHz central processing unit (CPU). The ASLP11 is one width, full- or mid-sized AMC processor board for distributed ATCA/MicroTCA processing applications, such as wireless base stations, voice over packet, test and measurement, server blades, and other enterprise-wide computing. The module’s onboard x8 PCI Express controller and FCLKA fabric clock may be configured as either the root controller for a subtending PCI Express subnet or as an end node (target) on a PCI Express subnet. The module uses solder to attach all components to the board to enhance its resistance to shock and vibration, and operates in temperatures from -40 to 55 degrees Celsius. Two Gigabit Ethernet ports and two SATA ports are provided, as are watchdog and temperature sensors, with USB 2.0 ports and a COM serial port.
