Power PC Boards

Extreme Engineering Solutions (X-ES) provides Single Board Computers (SBCs) based on the latest Intel® processors and Freescale PowerPC processors. SBCs from X-ES are available in a number of form factors - 3U and 6U VPX, VME, 3U and 6U CompactPCI. All SBCs from X-ES are available in air-cooled and conduction cooled versions to support a wide variety of applications across multiple industries.

The Freescale PowerPC based SBCs are self contained embedded computers found in virtually every embedded computing system. They run embedded and Real-Time operating systems and application software. Because of their versatility they take on a variety of roles in embedded systems such as system control and management, digital signal processing, I/O expansion, communications and networking, storage, and graphics capabilities.

X-ES also design and manufacture PowerPC based mezzanine cards. These are available as PrPMCs (Processor PMC), XMCs (Switched Mezzanine Card), and AMCs (Advanced Mezzanine Card). They provide a complete processor sub-system including local memory, a system interface bus or link (e.g., PCI, PCIe), and other local devices and peripheral interfaces. They have two primarily benefits. One, they enable system designers to focus on their core application by removing the processor sub-system from the design and implementing it on a processor mezzanine, which can be outsourced. Two, they enable processor and I/O subsystems to be decoupled by implementing the I/O subsystem on a baseboard with a PrPMC or XMC site for the processor subsystem. When processor and I/O technologies evolve at different rates, each can be upgraded independently of the other.

Sarsen Technology provides full software and driver support for the Freescale PowerPC embedded COTS hardware.
