Product: VRM-CD3-X

The VRM-CD3-X is a versatile 4HP/6U CompactPCI ®CPU card, designed especially for systems which require high performance at low power consumption. Available with the Intel® series of (LV) Pentium®M and (ULV) Celeron®M processors and up to 2GB RAM. The chipset is based on PCI Express technology and has a powerful integrated graphics accelerator. The VRM-CD3-X is provided with two independent DVI video connectors for attachment of one or two displays. If both video ports are active in single-channel mode, they can have different display timing and data. Alternatively, the DVI ports can be combined for a dual screen configuration, supporting higher resolutions and refresh rates. The VRM-CD3-X is equipped with three independent Gigabit Ethernet controllers (including PICMG 2.16 support), and eight USB 2.0 ports for high speed communication. An on-board socket accommodates either a CompactFlash card, or an 1.8-inch hard drive module. Typically, the PMC mezzanine module connector will be used for individual system expansion. As an option, the VRM-CD3-X is also available with a dual 2.5” SATA hard disk add-on module, which occupies the PMC slot. Furthermore, a rear I/O transition module is available for the VRM-CD3-X. Four Serial ATA channels are routed across the J3-J5 CPCI connectors, besides two Gigabit Ethernet ports, four USB channels and a variety of other useful signals.
