ADLINK Technology Introduces Low Power 3U CompactPCI® Blade Supporting the Dual-Core Intel® Atom™ Processor D510

San Jose, Calif, March 4, 2010  ADLINK Technology, Inc. a leading provider of trusted embedded products, today announced availability of the cPCI-3610 Series, an ultra low power 3U CompactPCI® processor blade based on the latest Intel® Atom™ processor family on 45 nm process technology. Utilizing Intel® Embedded Flexible Design, the cPCI-3610 can be populated with any of these three Intel® Atom™ processors: the N450, D410, or D510.  By utilizing these processors, which integrate graphics and memory controllers in the CPU, the cPCI-3610 Series has a power consumption of only 15 W with single-core CPUs (N450 or D410) and 19 W with the dual-core CPU (D510) at 100% loading. This allows the cPCI-3610 to support fanless operation and provide excellent computing and graphics performance.

The cPCI-3610 Series is equipped with up to 2 GB of soldered onboard DDR2-667 SDRAM and an Intel® 82810HM I/O Controller. Intel® Hyper-Threading Technology is supported to deliver thread-level parallelism with 2 threads per core. The integrated graphics on the Intel® Atom™ processors provide outstanding 3D graphics performance at resolutions up to 2048×1536 @ 75 Hz, 32 bit. Other graphics features such as Intel® Dynamic Video Memory Technology (Intel® DVMT 4.0), DirectX9, and Intel® Clear Video Technology are also supported.

“ADLINK’s cPCI-3610 Series CompactPCI® processor blade with the Intel® Atom™ processor D510 provides an optimal combination of dual-core performance, 3D-rich graphics features, extremely low overall power consumption and cost effectiveness. ADLINK has also created extended operating temperature range and rugged conduction cooled versions. This 3U CompactPCI® blade is well suited for mission critical markets such as military, transportation and automation,” says Eric Kao, Senior Manager of ADLINK’s Modular Computing Product Center.

“The latest Intel® Atom™ processors N450, D410 and D510 and the Intel® 82801HM I/O controller provide an integrated ultra low power two-chip solution that provides scalable computing power and enhanced graphics performance in a small footprint with reduced cooling requirements,” says Jonathan Luse, marketing director, Intel Low Power Embedded Products Division.

The cPCI-3610 is available in 4HP/8HP/12HP versions with Gigabit Ethernet, USB, COM, PS/2 KB/MS, Serial ATA, audio and QXGA analog video support. Optional 32-bit, 33/66 MHz PMC or PCIe® x1 XMC site and Rear Transition Module are also available.

The cPCI-3610 Series supports Microsoft® Windows® XP Professional, RedHat Enterprise Linux, and Wind River VxWorks.

Quickly and accurately identify inter-domain leakage issues in IC designs

Sponsored by Siemens Digital Industries Software

Power domain leakage is a major IC reliability issue, often missed by traditional tools. This white paper describes challenges of identifying leakage, types of false results, and presents Siemens EDA’s Insight Analyzer. The tool proactively finds true leakage paths, filters out false positives, and helps circuit designers quickly fix risks—enabling more robust, reliable chip designs. With detailed, context-aware analysis, designers save time and improve silicon quality.
