VME single-board computer VM6103

quad-coredual-coreARM architecture

Product overview
The VM6103 is a 6U VME single-board computer based on NXP QorIQ Layerscape multicore 64-bit ARM processors. It supports LS1023A (Dual-Core) or LS1043A (Quad-Core) configurations clocked from 1.0 to 1.6 GHz and offers scalable computing performance with pinout-compatible processor upgrade options. Low power dissipation (typ. < 10 W in Dual‑Core 1 GHz) and multiple I/O expansions make it suitable for industrial, transportation and defense environments.
