<p>The F75P is a COTS computer with onboard functional safety that unites three CPUs on one 3U CompactPCI&reg; PlusIO card. It makes Intel&reg; Atom&trade; E6xx performance with dual redundancy extremely compact, mainly targeting railway applications. Two independent Control Processors (CP) with independent DDR2 RAM and Flash and a supervision structure provide safety: with redundant software running on F75P, and with the software instances on the two CPs comparing their output, the board becomes a fail-silent subsystem, i.e. it can shut down in case of a fatal fault. Its I/O Processor (IOP) is built up like a classic CompactPCI&reg; CPU board, including DDR2 RAM, front and rear I/O. The front connectors include VGA, two USB 2.0, and two 100-Mbit (Fast) Ethernet channels. At the rear, the board provides another four USB 2.0, two Fast Ethernet ports, one 3-Gbit SATA and one PCI Express&reg; x1 link. These interfaces comply with the standardized pinout of CompactPCI&reg; PlusIO (PICMG 2.30). An onboard mSATA slot makes for scalable, robust mass storage. The intelligent board management controller of the IOP logs events such as reset, overvoltage or undervoltage in a nonvolatile FRAM.</p>
<p>Key features:</p>
<ul>
  <li>2x Intel&reg; Atom&trade; E6xx, 512 MB DDR2 RAM (each) for onboard dual redundancy</li>
  <li> 1x Intel&reg; Atom&trade; E6xx, 1 GB DDR2 for I/O</li>
  <li> Independent supervisors for each block</li>
  <li>Fail-safe and fail-silent board architecture</li>
  <li> Clustering of two F75P to raise availability</li>
  <li> Event logging</li>
  <li> Certifiable up to SIL 4 (with report from T&Uuml;V S&Uuml;D)</li>

<p>DIMMBoard DX86 is nearly compliant to the DIMM-PC&reg; module specification in fit &amp; functions. The core unit is a 27x27mm sized Vortex86DX SoC by DMP (581-Pin Ball BGA Package). The CPU features a Floating Point Unit(FPU), is x86 compliant and supports clock rates up to 1.0 GHz. Clocked at 600 MHz a fully passive cooled operation is possible resulting in minimal spatial dimensions. Due to the extremely low power consumption it's the ideal solution for mobile embedded devices. A nearly unlimited portfolio of peripheral interfaces and functions allows various application scenarios. </p>
<p>Drivers and software support for current embedded operating systems are available, e.g. DOS, WinCE, WinXP embedded and Linux, that makes a migration of existing software from another x86 architecture easier. The modular concept as a plug-in module enables scaling of performance classes. Due to the featuring of the onboard FLASH drive as a Micro-SD-Card Slot the size of the mass storage can be scaled from 1 GB up to 16 GB. Additionally USB and optional IDE are realized with 2 feature connectors directly on the board.</p>

<P>Athena III combines all of the functionality of a single board computer with a complete analog and digital data acquisition circuit into a single board, offering the most functionality available in a small, compact form factor.</P>
<P>Athena III can be customized for increased ruggedness. Options include latching connectors, hardwired configuration settings, rugged heat sink mounting, conformal coating, and BIOS modifications. Special order options include 1.6GHz E680T CPU, and 2GB of on-board DRAM. </P>
<P>An enhanced set of I/O ports is provided to support any application's requirements, including Gigabit Ethernet, SATA, 4 serial ports, PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports, and 4 USB 2.0 ports. The watchdog timer provides protection from software crashes and is programmable for delays up to 2 seconds. </P>
<P>The built-in PC/104 expansion bus enables Athena III to work with almost all Diamond Systems' data acquisition and communications modules, as well as hundreds of I/O boards from other vendors. Athena III can be provided with either stackthrough PC/104 connectors (standard) or non-stackthrough connectors for a slim baseboard application. The compact 4.2" x 4.5" form factor, slightly larger than PC/104, enables Athena III to include more features on a single board and still fit inside our Pandora enclosure system. </P>
