CompactPCI ® and CompactPCI ® Express
MEN Mikro Elektronik offers a wide product range of CompactPCI ® and CompactPCI ® Express single-board
computers in single Eurocard format based on Intel ® and PowerPC ® architectures for robust industrial and
embedded applications.
In addition to traditional industrial PC functions like real-time clock or watchdogs for temperature and voltage
control, many boards provide the newest technologies such as Gigabit Ethernet, SATA or GSM/GPS. Memory and
mass storage on offer include standard DRAM, non-volatile SRAM or FRAM, CompactFlash ® , NAND Flash and
on-board hard disks for program storage.
Many boards also offer mezzanine slots for flexible and individual I/O extension or are equipped with an FPGA
for the implementation of additional customer-specific functions.
By using the new CompactPCI ® Express bus system with serial instead of parallel data transfer MEN opens up
completely new possibilities. Data is transferred via point-to-point connections with a data transfer rate of up to
4 Gbytes/s. The complete bidirectionality of CompactPCI ® Express enables simultaneous transmitting and receiving.
The use of a hybrid backplane allows a smooth migration from CompactPCI ® to CompactPCI ® Express.
For application in harsh environmental conditions MEN’s CompactPCI ® boards are specially developed, qualified
and tested – regarding shock, vibration, resonance, humidity and chemicals for an operation temperature
from -40 up to +85°C. Complete CompactPCI ® /Express systems are wired, tested with Schroff ® mechanics and
backplanes and delivered in an individual configuration.
Designed for: -40 to +85°C operation temperature,
shock, drop, bump, vibration, humidity, chemical resistance
A CompactPCI ® /Express hybrid rack enables
a smooth migration from cPCI to cPCI Express
