General

The ProDAQ 3042 high-performance Slot-0 Controller provides a powerful, fully customizeable platform for embedded applications. Using Motorola's newest PowerPC generation (G4 with AltiVec(tm) technology) and the new PowerPlus II architecture, it provides the computational power for algorithmic-intensive computations.
The MPC7400 is a high-performance, low-power implementation of the fourth generation (G4) of PowerPC microprocessors from Motorola. The MPC7410 implements the full PowerPC 32-bit architecture and is targeted at both portable and computing systems applications. Using Motorola's AltiVec(tm) technology, it integrates traditional scalar processing with a fully independent vector-processing engine.
The new PowerPlus II architecture provides memory performance of up to 582MB/s memory read bandwidth and 640MB/s burst write bandwidth as well as full PCI throughput of 264MB/s.
Configuration options enable the ProDAQ 3042 to be used as a VXIbus Processor Module in non-Slot-0 applications.

PMC Expansion Slots

Two PMC Expansion slots provide the capability of customization to satisfy the application needs.

Trigger Interface

The ProDAQ 3042 supports both the VXIbus TTL and ECL trigger lines. Trigger signals can be generated under software control. On detection of a trigger signal a local interrupt can be generated.

Software

Board Support Packages as well as a VISA library and resource manager according to the VXIplug&play standard are available for a number of operating systems. Please contact Bustec Production Ltd. for an up-to-date list.
