Kontron announced its powerful AdvancedMC processor module AM4140. Equipped with a Freescale QorIQ P4040/80 CPU with up to 8 cores at 1.5GHz and high-speed fabrics, the new Kontron AM4140 offers outstanding performance for parallel, multi-threaded applications on MicroTCA integrated platforms.
The module incorporates the high-performance Freescale QorIQ P4040/80 4/8-core processor with cores based on the e500 power architecture. With high-speed frame handlers and multiple high-speed connections like Serial Rapid IO, 10 Gigabit Ethernet and PCI Express, the Kontron AM4140 meets highest demands in multi-threaded processing. In order to match demands on high throughput and low latency, the Kontron AM4140 provides a fast dual-channel memory of up to 8GB ECC-RAM.
The Kontron AM4140 provides flexible configuration of high-speed fabrics. On AMC ports 4-7, 4x SERDES lines can be configured either as PCI Express (root complex or end point) or Serial Rapid IO ports (host or agent). www.kontron.com
