Description
The VXI Embedded Controller with the part number 776499-36 is a highly specialized device designed for complex computing environments. This model, designated as VXICPU-030, comes equipped with a kit that includes an internal 512M hard disk and a parallel port (Centronics), enhancing its capability to handle a wide range of data processing and storage tasks.
The core of this embedded controller is powered by a 68030-microprocessor, which is based on the MVME147S processor board by Motorola. This choice of processor ensures that the device can handle demanding applications with ease, providing a solid base for its operational capabilities.
Running on the VxWorks OS, this controller supports a multitude of operating system features and is optimized for real-time operations. This operating system is renowned for its reliability and efficiency in embedded computing applications.
When it comes to connectivity and expansion options, the VXICPU-030 is well-endowed. It features standard interfaces such as Intelligent Ethernet, RS-232 ports, a SCSI interface, and an IEEE 488/IEEE488.2 interface. These interfaces ensure that the device can connect to a wide range of peripherals and networks, allowing for versatile usage scenarios.
Additionally, the controller offers optional interfaces that include up to 8 RS-232 ports, a printer interface (Centronics), and an internal hard disk drive, further enhancing its adaptability and storage capabilities. The onboard DMA support for SCSI ensures efficient data transfer and storage operations, making it a robust choice for applications requiring high-speed data processing.
Out of the box, the VXICPU-030 comes with 2 RS-232 ports as standard, but it can be expanded to include up to 8 RS-232 ports if more serial connections are needed for your application.
Despite being classified as obsolete, this VXI Embedded Controller remains available for purchase and repairs through Apex Waves. This ensures that even legacy systems can be maintained or upgraded, providing continuity for critical applications that rely on this specific model.
