Small Form Factor SBC module provides quad-core performance at ultra-low power

ASHBURN, Va. – Curtiss-Wright Corporation (NYSE: CW) today announced that its Defense Solutions division has introduced a new high performance, low-power quad-core Intel® Atom™ (“Bay Trail”) E3845-based XMC Processor Mezzanine single board computer (SBC). With a typical power consumption of only 15W, the rugged XMC-120 Atom SBC Processor Mezzanine Card speeds and eases the integration of exceptional x86 processing performance into Size, Weight, Power and Cost (SWaP-C) constrained environments. The XMC-120 can be hosted on any 3U or 6U VPX™ module with an available VITA 42 XMC mezzanine site, such as an SBC, DSP processor, or VPX carrier card, to provide a single-slot compute solution. The XMC-120 is also available pre-integrated with the Cisco Systems® 5921 Embedded Services Router (ESR) Software, enabling system designers to deploy a single-slot solution that combines both Cisco network routing and Intel® multi-core processing. The module combines the ruggedization and upgrade advantages of the VITA 42 mezzanine standard with a small form factor SBC featuring a low-power footprint. The XMC-120 can also be used as a stand-alone board for applications, such as small UAV and robots, where a VPX carrier card is not required.

Expanding Curtiss-Wright’s family of XMC processor modules, the XMC-120 joins the recently introduced XMC-109 dual-core Freescale™ QorIQ™ P2020 Power Architecture®-based XMC Processor Mezzanine module, to provide system designers with a wider selection of CPU architectural options. The XMC-120 module’s Atom processor is supported with a wide range of I/O, including four (4) Ethernet ports and three (3) display ports. Built on Intel’s Silvermont architecture and manufactured with tri-gate 22nm process technology, the Atom SoC was designed for use in extremely power-sensitive and mobile applications where higher levels of performance are required.
