Aitech C800

Introduction

Aitech’s C800 is a ground breaking Windows compatible rugged cPCI SBC, based on Intel's new highly integrated, high performance Santa Rosa platform.

Powered by Intel's next generation Santa Rosa platform, comprising the L7500 Core2 Duo (Merom) dual- core processor with its large integrated on-chip L1 and L2 cache, the GM965 Express Chipset, and ICH8M Controller Hub, the C800 provides the highest performance available in a 3U cPCI SBC for harsh environment applications.

To ensure high reliability under extreme operating conditions the C800 is capable of accurate temperature self-monitoring and power dissipation control through on-board temperature sensors.

The C800 implements large on-board memory arrays to support the processor and user application needs. Memory resources include up to 2 GB fast DDR2 (Double Data Rate) SDRAM and up to 8 GB Flash Disk (NAND Flash) for user/application specific parameter storage.

An on-board graphics controller provides video and 2D/3D graphics processing and output support for various displays.

In addition to its high performance processor architecture, the C800 provides a wide variety of I/O, including two Gigabit Ethernet ports, two high-speed serial communications ports, two USB 2.0 ports, one SATA II interface, up to eight general-purpose discrete I/O channels, and a high definition audio stereo output. To further expand its capabilities, the C800 is equipped with an industry standard PMC slot allowing for installation of additional modules and functionality.

The C800 may perform as either the CompactPCI system controller or as a peripheral board. When configured as system controller, the C800 can support up to six additional cards on the CompactPCI backplane, providing clock, arbitration and interrupt capabilities.

The highly integrated design of the C800 guarantees unmatched performance and versatility for a rugged conduction or air-cooled 3U cPCI SBC.
