High-performance PICMG 1.0 Slot CPU with Intel® GM45 Mobile Chipset

Munich, January 2011 – DSM Computer’s current industrial Slot CPU 96M4296o conforms to the proven and still very popular PICMG 1.0 Standard. The compact CPU card is equipped with an Intel® Core™ 2 Duo (Penryn) processor with the 667/800/1066 MHz front-side bus or a Celeron™ processor and the Intel® GM45/ICH9M chipset with the Intel® Graphics Media Accelerator 4500MHD. The module can be equipped with two DDR3 SO-DIMM memory modules that have a maximum capacity of 8 GB. This makes the Slot CPU 96M4296o, DSM Computer’s most powerful mobile platform in this form factor. 

The PICMG 1.0 plug-in card offers a number of standard interfaces, in particular the two fast GigaBit LAN interfaces that permit a wide range of applications in the various markets. In addition to the many serial and parallel interfaces, eight USB 2.0 ports, GPIO, IrDA, HD Audio, IDE as well as three SATA II with 300 MB/s data transfer rate and two SATA with 150 MB/s that support RAID 0, 1 are provided. VGA, 18/24-bit Dual Channel LVDS and DVI are implemented as graphic interfaces. The module can be extended without additional effort via PCI Express™ mini-cards, an integrated Compact Flash socket and a Mini-PCI socket for Mini-PCI Type IIIA cards. On request, two PCI Express™ mini-cards are also possible. 

The full-length (338 x 122 mm) Slot CPU 96M4296o has a rated operating temperature range of 0° to 60° C. The computer card provides an ACPI 2.0-conform power management. Once again, DSM Computer proves with this new, powerful Slot CPU its product continuity and the long-term availability of its modules and systems.

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.
