The XCalibur1740 is a high-performance, multiprocessing, 6U VPX, single board computer that is ideal for ruggedized systems requiring high-bandwidth processing and low power consumption. With dual Power Architecture® e500v2 cores running at up to 1.2 GHz, the NXP (formerly Freescale) QorIQ P2020 delivers enhanced performance and efficiency for today’s embedded computing applications.The XCalibur1740 provides up to 8 GB of DDR3-800 ECC SDRAM, two XMC/PMC slots, and 512 MB of NOR flash (with redundancy). The XCalibur1740 also supports three Gigabit Ethernet ports, XMC I/O, PMC I/O, and two RS-232/422/485 serial ports out the front panel and/or VPX backplane connectors.The XCalibur1740 is a powerful, feature-rich solution for the next generation of compute-intensive embedded applications. For customers seeking a lower power option, the XCalibur1740 can be designed with the NXP P1020 processor, offering a reduction of approximately 7 W. Operating system support for Wind River VxWorks, Green Hills INTEGRITY-178, QNX Neutrino, and Linux is available.
