Technologies(R) (Nasdaq:SBSE) continues its role as an embedded
computer market leader by introducing the new line of graphic PMCs
based on ATI Technologies' Radeon Mobility 9000 (M9) mobile
graphics processor supporting 2D and 3D acceleration, OpenGL, and
DirectX. The rugged off-the-shelf G2 line from SBS is ideal for
military and avionics applications such as cockpit avionics
applications and terrain overlay systems, or any application that
requires a small footprint and high display performance. The G2
Graphics PMC Module Family consists of three models: the G2 Basic
PMC, the G2 Dual PMC and the G2 Plus PMC. Each PMC module is
available in a commercial grade, extended temperature or rugged
conduction-cooled versions. These flexible combinations of
different ruggedness and temperature levels offer engineers
unprecedented video PMC choices, with off-the-shelf delivery and
the option of product customization. With one of the broadest
ranges of temperature coverage available, the G2 Graphics PMC
line's various models are designed to operate in temperatures
ranging from -40 degrees C to +85 degrees C. Each G2 Graphic PMC
shares the same features of 64 MBytes of video RAM, integrated
display output, reduced-power optimization and graphics
acceleration to help reduce host processor overhead. "SBS is
introducing this line of high-performance PMC graphics products to
meet the challenge of increasing demand for advanced graphics
display required in situational awareness systems. Now, military
and avionics systems engineers have their choice from a wide
variety of graphics I/O options and rugged levels. The G2 Graphic
PMC line's extensive temperature and environmental grades, combined
with SBS Technologies' proven product support, ensures that our
customers can develop their applications quickly and with precisely
the right graphics PMC module," said Dave Wessing, General Manager
of SBS Technologies' Government Group. About the G2 Basic PMC The
economical G2 Basic PMC is designed for applications that need only
a single display output channel. The G2 Basic provides a wide range
of display output options including DVI with up to 1600 X 1200
pixel resolution, LVDS, RGB, NTSC, PAL and S-Video. About the G2
Dual PMC The flexible G2 Dual PMC features the same video display
output support options as the G2 Basic PMC and adds another display
channel for those applications that require dual displays. About
the G2 Plus PMC The G2 Plus PMC provides the broadest range of
capabilities in the G2 Graphics PMC Family. Dual display outputs
plus up to two channels of video input capture make the G2 Plus PMC
an ideal choice for demanding video capture applications. The G2
Plus PMC's addition of graphics overlay capabilities is especially
useful for applications requiring display and manipulation of
multiple video streams. The G2 Graphics PMC Modules are supported
by optional OpenGL drivers from ALT Software Inc., which are
available for a number of different operating systems including
Linux, VxWorks, Integrity and Windows XP. ALT's DO-178B Level A
certifiable OpenGL driver is also supported on all major hardware
platforms. Price and Availability: Available now, the pricing for
the G2 Graphics PMC Module in single quantities starts at US$2,200.
