Powerful real-time computing—future- proofed and backward compatible The PowerCore CPCI-690 brings maximum real-time computing performance in a single slot to both system controller and intelligent periph- eral modes. The CPCI-690 is built around the PowerPC 750FX processor with its ultra-high speed and extremely low-power consumption characteristics. The use of the PowerPC 750FX, together with up to 2GBytes high-speed memory and Sentinel’s on-chip buffers for elevated sys- tem performance, enables the CPCI-690 to ad- dress the most demanding applications. The CPCI-690 is also backward compatible with earlier members of the Force PowerPC-based PowerCore family of SBCs. Developers can take advantage of the CPCI- 690’s power and performance when running major real-time operating systems (RTOSes) or when deploying applications based on the low- ™ cost, open-source Linux operating system.
