Description
The Motorola CPCI-6020 is a high-performance CompactPCI (cPCI) single-board computer and host-slot processor module engineered for demanding industrial automation, telecommunications, and embedded control environments. Utilizing Motorola’s advanced PowerPlus III architecture, this board features a low-power, high-performance MPC7410 PowerPC processor paired with a high-speed L2 cache and an extensible, low-latency ECC SDRAM subsystem. Designed to slot smoothly into standard CompactPCI backplanes, it integrates comprehensive communication options including dual Ethernet channels, USB ports, multiple serial interfaces, and a PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) site for flexible system expansion and robust real-time data processing.
► What is the primary function of the CPCI-6020 module? The unit serves as a high-performance host-slot single-board computer (SBC) designed to manage core processing, system control, and data handling within a CompactPCI chassis.
► What microprocessor architecture is utilized on this board? It is built around the Motorola MPC7410 PowerPC processor core operating at up to 500 MHz, featuring AltiVec technology and an integrated L2 cache.
► How is system memory configured and expanded? System memory uses ECC-protected SDRAM expandable up to 2 GB via a modular RAM500 memory mezzanine card configuration.
► What expansion slots are available for adding custom functionality? It features a 32/64-bit PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) slot, allowing for the addition of specialized communication, storage, or I/O interface modules.
► What environment or application types are best suited for this controller? It is widely deployed in high-reliability industrial automation, telecommunications infrastructure, defense systems, and embedded multi-slot transit applications.
