Welcome to Sandpoint, Motorola’s flexible processor development platform. Using Sandpoint
you can evaluate current Motorola host processors and integrated processors based on the
PowerPC architecture using MPMC (Motorola Processor PCI Mezzanine Cards). These cards
are interchangable and one Sandpoint platform can support numerous processor-specific
PPMC cards (but just one at a time).
