VPX3001
1 Introduction
1.1 Overview
The VPX3001 Series is a 3U VPX processor blade featuring the
3rd Generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor with Mobile Intel®
QM77 Express Chipset. The VPX3001 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 32GB SLC SATA solid state drive. Rear I/O via
P1 and P2 includes 2x 1000BASE-T or 2x 1000BASE-BX (BOM
option), 1x SATA 6 Gb/s, 1x SATA 3 Gb/s, 2x USB 2.0, 6x GPIO,
VGA, 1x RS-232, and 1x RS-232/422.
A VPX-R3001 Rear Transition Module is available to access rear
I/O signals and a 9-slot 3U VPX Test Frame is available for users
to validate VPX3001 functionality.
The VPX3001 Series is rugged conduction cooled with conformal
coating, making it ideal for mission critical applications in radar;
intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR); and
UAV/UGV platforms.

2.3 Power Consumption
This section provides information on the power consumption of the
VPX3001 Series when using Intel® Core i7 processors with Dual
Channel 8GB DDR3-1333 soldered memory and soldered onboard
32GB SATA SSD. The VPX3001 is powered by 12V, 5V and 3.3V.
Power consumption at 100% CPU usage was measured by running
PassMark BurnInTest and Intel Thermal Analysis Tool (TAT).
