GENERAL INTRODUCTION
1.1
INTRODUCTION
The CPCI-810 is a high-performance CompactPCI System Controller. A block diagram is shown in
Figure 1-1.
The board is based on the MPC8240 PowerPC
integrated processor. The MPC8240 has a processor
core based on the PowerPC603e
low-power microprocessor, and also performs many peripheral
functions on chip. The peripheral logic integrates a PCI bridge, memory controller, DMA controller,
interrupt controller, I
2
O controller, and an I
2
C controller. I/O expansion is provided with a PMC
Module. The PMC Module location allows the CPCI-810 to be configured for custom applications.
Additionally, the CPCI-810 contains two Intelligent 10/100BaseT Ethernet Controllers and can be used
as a processing engine for an embedded systems platform, which requires Ethernet connectivity.
Software development tools for PowerPC processors are available from a variety of vendors, and Board
Support Packages (BSPs) for the PSOS operating system is available from Cyclone.
