The CR5 supports up to 2Gbyte of DDR2 SDRAM with ECC on a 400MHz memory bus, and features two gigabit Ethernet ports, two SATA ports, two USB 2.0 ports and eight GPIO ports.
'The announcement of the CR5 single board computer is significant for two reasons', says Wayne McGee, Global Director of SBC Product Line Management at GE Fanuc Embedded Systems.
'First, it makes available a leading edge processor coupled with the popular 3U CompactPCI form factor, and provides the option for ruggedisation in those environments that require it, such as military applications Second, it is totally form, fit and function compatible with its predecessor, and thus provides a smooth, straightforward upgrade path for customers who have previously designed the CR4 into their systems'.
