VMEbus SBC evolves
with real-world interfaces
The MVME3100 is a VMEbus single-board computer that is optimised for performance, flexibility and price
This new addition to Motorola's VME product line addresses a wide range of applications including industrial control, test/measurement and image processing. The MVME3100 delivers a performance advantage at a similar price point to the company's MVME162 and MVME2300 products. 'The MVME3100 continues Motorola's history of VMEbus innovation, our long-term commitment to the technology and our charter to empower customers to compete effectively, be more cost-efficient and maximise the value of their investment in technology', said Dave Barker, Product Manager for Motorola's Embedded Communications Computing Group.

'Our newest single-board computer is fully interoperable with its higher performance family member, the MVME6100, and enables system integrators to build a hardware and software environment based on a VMEbus Two-edge Source Synchronous Transfer (2eSST) interconnect'.
'The functionality and cost point of this product also makes it the ideal migration choice for 68K based solutions'.
The MVME3100 is built around the MPC8540 system-on-chip (SoC) processor, which allows the MVME3100 to offer lifecycle, power/thermal, and reliability advantages not typically found in industrial PCs.
The MPC8540 integrates the processor, memory controller, PCI-X controller and dual GigE interfaces into a single, low-power (less than 7W) device.
Using the 2eSST VMEbus protocol interface, the MVME3100 is capable of transferring data across the VMEbus at 320 MB/sec.
The combination of the 2eSST VMEbus, GigE, USB 2.0 and SATA interfaces, along with dual PMC-X sites, enables customers to cost-effectively build systems with real-world interfaces, while strategically leveraging their existing investments in VMEbus infrastructure and longer-lifecycle products.
The MVME3100 is anticipated to enter customer beta testing in Q2 2005, with availability in fully RoHS-compliant production scheduled for September 2005, with versions starting at US $1895 list.
