Product Launch

CompactPCI(R) enhanced by 2nd Generation Intel(R) Core(TM) processors

Concurrent Technologies Plc (the "Company"), a world leading specialist in the design and manufacture of high-end embedded computer products, is pleased to announce the launch of its latest high performance CompactPCI(R) processor board, the PP 83x/x9x. This new product is a single slot, air-cooled CompactPCI(R) Single Board Computer (SBC) utilizing the 2nd Generation Intel(R) Core(TM) microarchitecture.

This new SBC was developed as an evolutionary step for an established product and, as such, provides customers with an upgrade path to extend product life cycle and protect previous software investments.

The PP 83x/x9x supports a range of the latest Intel(R) Core processors and customers could expect a significant increase in both processor and graphical performance over previous Intel(R) Core(TM) processor based CompactPCI(R) products. This product has also been designed to accommodate the next generation Intel(R) Core(TM) processor based platform.

To address today's demanding applications within markets such as defence, security, and communications, the PP 83x/x9x supports a wide range of leading Operating Systems and is designed to scale from commercial temperature grade through to extended temperature grade for applications within harsher environments.

Glen Fawcett, Managing Director, Concurrent Technologies, commented:

"This new product not only extends our range of processor designs featuring the latest processor technology from Intel(R) but also reaffirms our commitment to providing our customers with a long term upgrade path".

About the PP 83x/x9x

The PP 83x/x9x supports the Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2715QE processor, Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2655LE processor or Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2610UE processor and the enhanced features of the Intel(R) Series 6 Express chipset, along with up to 8 Gbytes of DDR3-1333 ECC SDRAM. Users of the PP 83x/x9x could expect a significant increase in both processor and graphical performance over previous Intel(R) Core(TM) processor based 6U CompactPCI I(R) products. In addition, the PP 83x/x9x has been designed to accommodate the next generation Intel(R) Core(TM) processor-based platform thereby providing customers with a convenient upgrade path to extend product life cycle and protect previous software investments.

Supporting up to two 100MHz PCI-X PMC or XMC x4/x8 PCI Express(R) sites, the PP 83x/x9x maintains compatibility with the previous generation product (PP 432/052) and offers an array of rear I/O functions - 1x RS232, 2x Gigabit Ethernet, 2x USB 2.0 and 2x SATA interfaces. The front panel supports the following interfaces on industry standard connectors - up to 3x USB 2.0 interfaces, 2x Gigabit Ethernet, optional DVI-I graphics and optional RS232 interface. For application and data storage there is an onboard site for a CompactFlash(R) module and an onboard option for a SATA300 2.5-inch disk drive.

The board can operate as a system controller board, a peripheral board or as a satellite board (blade). Support is also provided for PICMG(R) 2.16 (Ethernet fabric), PICMG(R) 2.9 (IPMI) and PICMG(R) 2.1 (hot swap); the CompactPCI I(R) backplane interface operates at 33/66MHz PCI signalling speeds.
