PowerPCNXPPCI Express

The EP8548A is a single width, full height AMC processor board with a low power, high performance NXP MPC8548 processor operating at up to 1.33GHz. For fabric connectivity the EP8548A offers extreme flexibility, while maintaining standards compliance. All versions of the board support gigabit ethernet on AMC channels 0 an 1, compliant with AMC.2, Type E2). Separate versions of the board are available in one of the following configurations: Serial RapidIO on AMC channels 4-7, PCI Express on AMC channels 4-11, or PCI Express on channels 4-7 and Serial RapidIO on channels 8-11. Suitable for MicroTCA and ATCA chassis applications. At the heart of the EP8548A is a NXP MPC8548 PowerQUICC III processor. The MPC8548 is a highly integrated system-on-chip (SoC) platform that includes a PowerPC core, an integrated security engine, integrated PCI Express, Serial RapidIO, and Gigabit Ethernet controllers, and an integrated DDR2 memory interface. The highly integrated SoC architecture improves system performance, simplifies board design, lowers power consumption, and reduces cost. Features Runs as a standalone development board!
