LONG BEACH, Calif., 17 Jan. 2006. Today at the Bus and Board 2006 Conference here, SBS Technologies announced the CE9 6U CompactPCI CE9 single board computer (SBC).
Using a 1.8 GHz Intel Pentium M processor, the CE9 brings the latest technology to a single board computer designed for high performance and reliability. The system memory in the CE9 offers up to 2 GBytes of 333 MHz DDR SDRAM with ECC and features a 400 MHz system bus to processor.
This SBC can be used in a system or non-system slot within a CompactPCI backplane. SBS Technologies' Ready Driver VxWorks software ensures that the CE9 will integrate easily with those systems applications designed with SBS Technologies single board computers such as the CP9, CR9 and CT9.
"The CE9 is a cost-optimized 6U CompactPCI SBC designed with a focus on reliability," said Adrian Bernhard, managing director of SBS Technologies European Operations. "The CE9's soldered memory, optional extended temperature and conformal coating positions the CE9 not only for traditional applications in the communications and automation industries, but also for rugged applications. The CE9's audio capability also makes it well-suited for applications with multimedia requirements."
Providing abundant I/O, the CE9 includes dual Gigabit Ethernet ports, two serial I/O ports, four USB 2.0 ports and a CompactFlash or 2.5 inch hard disk. For system designers needing additional I/O capability, the CE9 includes a PMC site that supports the IEEE 1386.1 standard, allowing system designers high flexibility for expanding I/O capability with SBS Technologies' extensive line of WAN and LAN I/O PMC modules. The CE9 pricing starts at US$1,730 in OEM quantities and is available now.
