VPX3000
1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The VPX3000 Series is a 3U VPX processor blade featuring the
3rd Generation Intel® Core i7 processor with Mobile Intel® QM77
Express Chipset. The VPX3000 provides up to 8GB
DDR3-1066/1333 dual channel ECC memory soldered onboard,
one PCI Express x8 XMC.3 site with VITA 46.9 rear IO, and
onboard soldered 16GB SLC SATA solid state drive.
The VPX3000 provides two Gen2 PCI Express x4 (or 1xPCIe x8)
to P1 with DMA and non-transparent bridge capability. Rear I/O via
P1 and P2 includes 1000BASE-T, HD Audio (Line-in, Line-out), 2x
SATA 6 Gb/s, 1x SATA 3 Gb/s, USB 3.0, USB 2.0, GPIO, VGA,
DVI, RS-232, and RS-422.
A VPX-R300 Rear Transition Module is available to access rear
I/O signals from the VPX3000 and a tBP-VPX3000 Test Backplane
supporting three payload slots is available for users to validate
VPX3000 functionality.
The VPX3000 Series is rugged conduction cooled with conformal
coating, making it ideal for mission critical applications such as
military and aerospace platforms.
