Detailed content

  1. Interfaces & Expansion:
    • Ethernet: Dual controllers—82540EM Gigabit Ethernet (GbE) and 10/100 Mbit Ethernet .
    • Video: Digital Visual Interface (DVI) for direct digital display connectivity .
    • Serial Ports: Two 16550-compatible UART ports (16-byte FIFO buffers) .
    • USB: Front-panel USB 2.0 port .
    • Storage: IDE controller for CompactFlash (up to 1 GB) and floppy drives (via VMEbus P2 connector) .
    • PMC Expansion: Two PCI Mezzanine Card (PMC) sites for I/O customization .
  2. VMEbus Integration:
    • Compliant with VMEbus Specification Rev. C.1 .
    • Functions as system controller/peripheral CPU; supports BLT32/BLT64, A32/D32, A24/D32, A16/D32 master/slave modes .
    • Features byte-swapping hardware for endian conversion .
  3. Environmental Resilience:
    • Operating Temperature: 0°C to +60°C (standard) or -40°C to +85°C (industrial variants) .
    • Passive cooling (no fans); MTBF 267,455 hours .
    • Humidity: 10–90% non-condensing .
  4. Compliance & Power:
    • RoHS, VCCI Class A (Japan), CISPR 22 EMC .
    • Power: +5VDC (±5%), 6.08A (typical), 8.20A (max) .

Functional Features

  1. Real-Time Determinism:
    • Hardware-level synchronization for microsecond-latency tasks; transparent PCI-to-VMEbus bridge enables multi-CPU coordination .
    • Programmable watchdog timer for system recovery during software failures .
  2. Embedded Optimization:
    • 32 KB battery-backed SRAM for critical data retention during power loss .
    • Four user-programmable timers (two 16-bit, two 32-bit) with independent clock rates (2 MHz–250 kHz) .
    • I²C bus controller for peripheral management .
  3. Network & Boot Flexibility:
    • Remote Ethernet boot via ARGON Boot ROM BIOS .
    • Supports protocols: TCP/IP, NetWare, PXE .
  4. Software Ecosystem:
    • OS Support: Windows XP/2000, VxWorks, QNX, Linux RT, LynxOS .
    • GE IOWorks drivers for VME I/O board integration (C++/C libraries) .

Application Scenarios

  1. Industrial Automation:
    • Real-time control in aluminum rolling mills, power plants, and PLC-based monitoring systems .
  2. Defense & Aerospace:
    • Avionics systems, radar signal processing, military simulation rigs .
  3. Critical Infrastructure:
    • Nuclear plant controls, rail signaling, and grid management .
  4. High-Performance Testing:
    • Data acquisition in engine test stands; factory automation .

Ordering & Variants

Model Suffix Key Differentiation
Standard Pentium 4-M, 1 GB RAM, GbE
Industrial (-RC) Extended temp. range (-40°C to +85°C)

Compatible Accessories:

  • Floppy/hard drive modules (e.g., VMIVME-7452) .
  • DVI-to-SVGA adapters for legacy displays .

Critical Notes

  1. Memory Limitation: When using GE IOWorks software, allocate ≤25% physical RAM to avoid boot failures .
  2. Warranty Void: Modifying non-user-configurable jumpers invalidates warranty .
  3. Legacy System Integration: Fully interoperable with GE VMIC ecosystem (e.g., VMIPMC-5579 I/O modules) .
