Worlds first Multicore PICMG1.3 SHB-Express Solution PEAK-8920VL2

.

IPC2U Group announces Nexcom's world's first PICMG 1.3 System Host Board-Express Computer (SHB). The PEAK 8920VL2 has dual LGA771 sockets and supports two 5100 Series Quad-Core or Dual-Core Intel Xeon Processors with 4 MB L2 cache and the Intel Core micro architecture up to 2.33 GHz with 1333 MHz FSB. Featuring an Intel 5000P Chipset + Intel® ESB2, the PEAK 8920VL2 delivers increased throughput with dual point-to-point system buses, faster memory for I/O bandwidth, and Fully Buffered DIMM (FB-DIMM) support.

The PEAK 8920 Single Board Computer is the successor to our flagship PEAK 7220 product. The PEAK 8920VL2 is a brand new design concept, supporting PICMG 1.3 and manufactured to the highest possible standards the PEAK 8920VL2 is compatible with a variety of industry standard products.

Highlights of the PEAK 8920VL2 SHB-Express

  • PICMG 1.3
  • Dual LGA771 sockets support two Quad-Core / Dual-Core Intel® Xeon® processor 1066/1333 FSB up to 3GHz
  • Intel® 5000P chipset
  • Four 240-pin DDR2 FBDIMM memory, 533/667 MHz up to 8GB
  • Two Intel 82573L PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet
  • Four USB 2.0 directly output from bracket to save the cabling cost
  • Two COM ports & Two SATA II (to backplane)

The Benefits of PICMG 1.3

The PICMG 1.3 regulates the PCI Express interconnection definition between the CPU board, the backplane, and other I/O ports. The new PICMG 1.3 defines the signals of the four connectors on System Host Board for I/O and PCIe to support higher bandwidth, up to 4 GB/S in each direction for PCIe x16.

Eliminates Bottleneck

Generally the over-all throughput of the system is limited to the bottleneck of the bandwidth. By discontinuing the support of the legacy ISA ports, it allows system to reserve more resources and support higher bandwidth for PCIe ports. PICMG 1.3 supports new PCIe x16 interface, SATA, USB, LAN wake up on backplane to increase bandwidth and performance.

Increased Bandwidth

As more sophisticated industrial applications demand higher performance computing platforms, the bandwidth of the system become vital to reliable computing solutions.To enjoy the maximum bandwidth of throughput, the complete system must utilize the latest parts and components.

Longer System Life Cycle

When compared with PICMG 1.0, the PICMG 1.3 greatly improved the bandwidth of the PC bus and is able to support additional I/O function, hence the system complied with PICMG 1.3 has a longer system life cycle.

Backplane Support

Manufacturer NEXCOM provides various PICMG 1.3 compliant 4U and 6U backplanes to fit most of your project needs. The NBP 14111 and NBP 14210 support PCIe x16 and multiple PCI (PCI-x) slots, while NBP 20016 supports up to 16 PCI (PCI-X) slots. All backplanes are compliant with PICMG 1.3 for greater reliability and compatibility with product from other manufactures. See blow for available backplanes and type.
