PC1-GROOVE
High Performance Low Power CPU Card
Suitable for Classic CompactPCI® and PICMG 2.30 CompactPCI® PlusIO Systems
The PC1-GROOVE is a powerful 4HP/3U
CompactPCI® CPU board, equipped with an
Intel® Core™ i7 processor (dual core, quad threads) scalable from
1.06GHz up to 2.66GHz clock (Turbo Boost up to 3.2GHz), and
integrated graphics. The PC1-GROOVE front panel is
provided with two Gigabit Ethernet jacks, two
USB receptacles, and either the Vesa DisplayPort
connector for attachment of a high resolution
display (DVI adapter available), or the
classic VGA connector as an alternate option.
|
|
Conforming to the PICMG® 2.30 CompactPCI®
PlusIO specification, the PC1-GROOVE in
addition provides standardised high speed rear I/O across the backplane
connector J2, such as PCI Express®, SATA, and
Gigabit Ethernet. In a hybrid backplane system,
the PC1-GROOVE acts as a bridge to PICMG®
CPCI-S.0 CompactPCI® Serial cards. In a classic
CompactPCI® system, any 2.30 compliant rear I/O transition
module such as the PR1-RIO may be used as an option.

PC1-GROOVE • Rugged High Performance Core™ i7 CPU
|
The PC1-GROOVE is equipped wit a set of local
expansion interface connectors, which can be
optionally used to attach a mezzanine side
board. A variety of expansion cards is available,
e.g. providing legacy I/O and additional PCI
Express based I/O circuitry such as SATA and
Gigabit Ethernet, or a secondary video output.
Most mezzanine cards can accommodate in
addition a 2.5-inch drive.
|
|
Typically, the PC1-GROOVE and the related side
card would come as a readily assembled 8HP
unit. As an alternate, Flash based mezzanine
storage modules are available that fit on the
PC1-GROOVE while maintaining the 4HP
profile. The C42-SATA module e.g. is equipped
with a very fast 1.8-inch SATA Solid State Drive
(SSD), which is suitable for installation of any
popular operating system.

PC1-GROOVE with C41-CFAST Mezzanine Module
|
CompactPCI® PlusIO (PICMG 2.30) is a new standard for rear I/O across J2,
specified by the PICMG®. High speed
signal lines (PCI Express®, SATA, Gigabit Ethernet and USB)
are passed from the PC1-GROOVE
through the special UHM connector to the
backplane, for usage on CompactPCI® Serial
card slots or a rear I/O transition module.
|
|
CompactPCI® Serial (PICMG CPCI-S.0) defines a
completely new card slot, based on PCI
Express®, SATA, Gigabit Ethernet and USB
serial data lines.
On a hybrid backplane, both card styles,
CompactPCI® and CompactPCI® Serial, can
coexist, with the PC1-GROOVE in the middle as
system slot controller for both backplane
segments.
