“Leveraging the MPC7447A PowerPC processor today with support for MPC7448 as it hits the market, Interface Concept is able to provide ideal PMC solutions based on the PowerPC architecture, which reinforces their position as a leading designer in the Freescale Design Alliance program,” said Pierre Bernoux, Distribution Marketing Director at Freescale Semiconductor. “We’re excited to extend our relationship with Interface Concept through their new commitment to the Freescale PowerPC processors based on the e600 core, from their long-standing involvement in Freescale’s PowerQUICC processor-based board designs.”

Interface Concept enhances its PowerPC processor-based PrPMC/VME64x-2eSST/cPCI product range with the introduction of the IC-e6-PMCa Processor PMC module. This mezzanine board, designed around the Freescale MPC7447A with support for the Freescale PowerPC product roadmap moving forward, offers speed options up to 1.5GHz today, DDR333-ECC SDRAM up to 512Mbytes and Flash EPROM of 64Mbytes. An optional SODIMM socket on PMC back side allows expandable SDRAM capability.

The MPC7447A and MPC7448 PowerPC processors and accompanying Marvell Discovery III chipset (MV64460) have been chosen for their flexibility and performance. The MPC7448 is expected to exceed 1.5GHz processing performance with even better performance with applications optimized for AltiVecT technology. The MV64460 indeed, adds 2Mbytes of high speed SRAM, two XOR DMA (useful for RAID, ISCSI applications) and four IDMA engines. As for peripheral functions, the IC-e6-PMCa features three Giga Ethernet channels, two multi-purpose serial controllers, backup SRAM, RTC, temperature sensor and a JTAG/COP interface for probe debugging.

Conformal coating and extended temperature versions are available.

The IC-e6-PMCa currently supports VxWorks and Linux. On-board comprehensive firmware enables Power-on Built In Test booting and remote software downloading over Ethernet.

The IC-e6-PMCa is designed to meet the needs of high-end performance processing required by PowerPC-based applications, such as real time computers, storage devices, routers, web switches, wireless infrastructures, image processing, and many others. Customers looking for an enhanced processor module for their PowerPCR solution can take advantage of the IC-e6-PMCa’s performance. Moreover, the combination of the MPC7448 and the Discovery III will allow them to integrate the IC-e6-PMCa into their existing system providing backward compatibility while preserving their investment.
