Themis Computer USPIIe-Gb

Introduction

The new USPIIe-Gb™ high performance VMEbus Single-Board Computers (SBCs) builds on Themis' highly successful USPIIe- USB product family and is differentiated by dual Gigabit Ethernet and Ultra160 SCSI interfaces. Based on the Sun® Microsystems 64-bit UltraSPARC® processors, the USPIIe-Gb supports 64-bit Solaris™ 8 and Solaris 9 operating environments and provides users with even higher network performance for their demanding Solaris™software applications.

Designed for the highest level of configuration flexibility and performance, the USPIIe-Gb supports graphics through a PMC slot via Themis' TGA-100 graphics card or 6U VME form factor TGA3D+ graphics card. The USPIIe-Gb integrates the 64-bit 650- MHz UltraSPARC® IIi+ processor with a local PCI bus (PMC) peripheral controller slot, and a high performance bridge. Memory is expandable up to 4-Gbytes using a memory mezzanine card. This high speed VME64 board is available in one-slot and two slot configurations that offer a wide range of I/O and performance options.

The cost-effective USPIIe-Gb/1 is a single-slot configuration that has low power dissipation, and high flexibility for embedded computing applications. This baseboard configuration provides a 32-bit, 33 MHz PMC slot for local I/O or graphics expansion with Themis' high performance TGA3D+ graphics co-processor. The TGA3D+ uses one additional VMEbus slot and provides one additional PMC slot. Further I/O expansion of USPIIe-Gb/1 is available via a 32-bit PCI riser to the second VME slot.

The USPIIe-Gb/2P2 two-slot configuration offers significant I/O expansion options, including two additional PMC slots. This expanded I/O configuration provides AC97 audio, a fourth Ethernet port (10/100Base-T), two multiprotocol serial ports and a software readable front panel rotary switch. These features make it ideal for data and telecommunications applications.

The USPIIe-Gb/2P3 is a two-slot configuration providing users three additional PMC slots without the expansion features of the USPIIe-Gb/2P2 configuration.
