ADLINK cPCI-6630 6U CompactPCI processor blade

The ADLINK cPCI-6630 6U CompactPCI processor blade has a 6th generation Intel Core i7 processor in a 6U form factor.

The product features support for legacy IO, including VGA, PMC, CompactFlash, USB 2.0 and PS/2 keyboard/mouse; and support for QNX 6.5/6.6 and Linux legacy OSes for easy integration. The product is suitable for factory and industrial automation or security communication systems that need cost-efficient performance.

The product integrates the quad-core 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7-6820EQ processor and Mobile Intel HM170 chipset, with up to 32 GB of dual-channel DDR4 SO-DIMM 2133 non-ECC memory. The product supports a 64-bit/66 MHz CompactPCI bus with universal VIO and host/satellite modes which allows operation in system slots and as well as in the peripheral slots without connection to the PCI bus.

Storage options include space for an onboard 2.5″ SATA 6 Gbps drive, CFast slot with (or optional CompactFlash) and one onboard SATA 7-pin header. Up to three SATA 3 Gbps ports routed to the rear round out the ample storage options. The product supports up to three Gigabit Ethernet ports on the front panel with the option to reroute Ethernet signals for PICMG 2.16 compatibility.

The product has three independent graphics output displays in parallel. HD graphics 530 is integrated in the processor and supports both DVI-I and DVI-D ports on the front panel, with additional display signals routed to rear IO. Video processing support includes DirectX 12 and OpenGL 4.4 for 3D hardware acceleration and H.265 hardware decode/encode.

Expansion and connectivity options include a 32-bit/33 MHz PMC on the dual slot version. The product supports PICMG standards for cPCI (Rev. 3.0), Hot Swap (Rev. 2.0) and Packet Switching Backplane (Rev. 1.0).

Powered by a single 5 V rail, the product has a TDP of 72.9 W for the Intel Core i7-6820EQ (under Windows 7). Management of power consumption and other performance indicators is available through Smart Embedded Management Agent (SEMA).
