1 Introduction
The ADLINK’s cPCI-6810/6820 series Single Board Computer
(SBC) and its corresponding rear I/O transition module is a
powerful and flexible CompactPCI universal system/peripheral slot
processor board. It is based on the Intel® mobile Pentium-III/
Tualatin CPU. This board is specially designed to add system
functional density to the 6U CompactPCI platform for
communication, high-density servers, and Telecom applications. It
is also suitable for high-density, high-reliability, and high-
availability embedded applications where having a diverse range
of features and performance are paramount.
The cPCI-6820 series product complies with PICMG 2.0 Rev. 3.0
CompactPCI specifications for 6U, single-slot (4 TE/HP) form
factor boards. The cPCI-6820 board features dual Intel®
Pentium® III Processor - Low Power (933 MHz) with 512KB L2
cache, while the cPCI-6810 is based on the same architecture as
the cPCI-6820 but features only a single Intel® Pentium® III
Processor - Low Power (933 MHz).
The cPCI-6820 series SBC uses the ServerWorks chipset, which
supports a 133MHz processor front side bus (FSB) and up to four
144-pin SO-DIMM sockets of PC-133 Registered SDRAM.
The cPCI-6810/6820 also features an Intel® 82546EB dual port
gigabit Ethernet (GbE) controller on the 66MHz 64bit PCI bus. The
dual GbE connections can be routed to the cPCI-R6820 RTM or to
the PICMG 2.16 compliant backplane.
In addition to its high computing performance and communication
capability, the cPCI-6820 also supports Intelligent Platform
Management IPMI v1.0 based on PICMG 2.9 specifications for
applications that require high reliability and serviceability.
