Mistral announces the first 3U VPX SBC from Curtiss Wright for embedded defense/aerospace applications
December 2007
Mistral Solutions Pvt. Ltd., a leading provider of complete technology solutions and professional services in the embedded space, today announced the availability of the VPX3-125 engine from CWCEC which combines the performance and the advanced I/O capabilities of the PA Semi PWRficientTM PA6T-1682M processor with an extensive I/O complement to provide a highly capable processing platform for a wide range of embedded military/aerospace applications.
 

VPX3-125 is designed for space constrained applications, and represents the latest step in the evolution of rugged high-performance, highly integrated small form factor Single Board Computers. The VPX3-125's integral high-speed backplane and PMC/XMC connectivity allows for multi-GB/sec data flows from board-to-board through the backplane interface and from the backplane to PMC/XMC site supporting the acquisition, processing, and distribution of sensor data such as video, radar, and sonar data. A rich I/O complement includes two gigabit Ethernet ports, 4 serial channels, up to 8 bits of discrete digital I/O, a Universal Serial Bus (USB) 2.0 port and a PMC/XMC site with 64 bits of IO mapped to the backplane.

The VPX3-125 is designed for military harsh-environment applications, and is offered in air- and conduction-cooled configurations. It comes with single or dual P.A. Semi Power Architecture cores at 1.5GHz and provides up to 1 GB DDR2 SDRAM.

Software available for the board includes VxWorks 6.x BSP and Driver Suite supporting Workbench 2.x IDE. The SBC is built in conformance with Curtiss-Wright's Continuum Software Architecture (CSA), providing a comprehensive suite of system debug, exerciser, and update functions, BIT, and non-volatile memory sanitization function.
