ADLINK Technology Unveils 6U CompactPCI® 4th Generation Intel® Core™ Processor Blade Designed for Military and Transportation Applications

SAN JOSE, CA – February 19, 2014 – ADLINK Technology, Inc., a leading provider of embedded building blocks and application-ready intelligent platforms, today announced availability of the cPCI-6530, a 6U CompactPCI® processor blade with enhanced graphics, computing performance, power efficiency, system manageability and data security made possible by the advanced quad-core 22nm 4th generation Intel®Core processor. The cPCI-6530 is an intelligent platform for mission-critical defense, aviation, railway and other transportation applications, and is being demonstrated next week in Hall 1/1-538 at Embedded World in Nuremburg, Germany.

The ADLINK cPCI-6530 is a robust blade designed for the MIL-STD-810G standard, provides an optimal balance of CPU/graphics performance, I/O and TDP, and features two PMC/XMC sites for expansion capability. The cPCI-6530 is also equipped with an onboard mSATA slot or optional 2.5” SSD/CFast slot for onboard storage requirements and provides system scalability and flexibility.

Designed for rugged and high reliability applications, the cPCI-6530 supports an operating temperature range of -40°C to +85°C with forced-air cooling. The cPCI-6530 also employs Intel’s configurable thermal design power (cTDP) for flexible TDP management of temperature-critical applications.

With enhanced floating-point arithmetic supported by Intel® Advanced Vector Extensions (Intel® AVX 2.0), the cPCI-6530 is ideal for intensive arithmetic-focused and image-processing applications such as radar, sonar and video transcoding systems in avionics, military and data analysis.

The cPCI-6530 supports PICMG 2.9 IPMI system management and Intel® Active Management Technology (Intel® AMT 9.0) to enable remote configuration, restart and shutdown with improved KVM redirection. In addition, the cPCI-6530 offers a higher standard of security control with Intel® Advanced Encryption Standard New Instruction (Intel® AES-NI) and an optional Atmel Trusted Platform Module (TPM).

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.
