Slot
(SBC) Based Computing
The various designs offered in the Slot Computing boards
category are all based on the open
PICMG standards set which describes how the ISA, PCI &
PCI-ISA data structure makes its way from the SBC / CPU Board to
the Passive
Backplane.
While ISA Bus products predate the PICMG standard and are a legacy bus
that is a simplistic parallel connection of IO connectors, PICMG brings
in the sophistication of the marriage of ISA and PCI into a common form
factor plus PICMG allows for bridging of the PCI bus,
allowing users to add up to 17 PCI boards to a single system.
There is a PICMG variant that allows for a Half Sized PCI only board
for situations where ISA bus expansion is not required.
The PICMG
full size boards are available in either 32-bit or 64-bit (high
bandwidth) designs and high performance devices. All of these slot
based SBCs are ideally suited for application in
compact and rugged enclosures suited for mission-critical applications
in harsh environments.
This category features Half Sized ISA and PCI bus SBCs as well as Full
Length PICMG class boards.
