| Embedded PCI Controller |
 |
General
This embedded PCI controller was designed and manufactured for Motorola SSTG. It allows their new line
of military radio transceivers to control peripheral equipment in real time using either a 10/100
Base T or Fiber Optic Ethernet link.
Technical
The External RF Controller is a PMC (PCI Mezzanine Card) design that communicates with
the radio transceiver via a PCI bus. It includes a PCI bridge IC, a MPC860T PowerPC processor, 8
MBytes of Flash, 16 MBytes of SDRAM, serial EEPROM, a custom FPGA, and copper or fiber optic
Ethernet interfaces. In addition to passing Ethernet messages between the host controller and
external peripherals, this product can format and transmit an Ethernet message in response to
a changing discrete signal faster than any product currently on the market. The embedded software
and gate array configuration are fully downloadable via the PCI bus. This product is manufactured
by HED in high volumes for Motorola.
