GE VMIVME – 7740 – 840 350 – 07740 – 840 – M VMEbus Single Board Computer Module
2. Product Description
The VMIVME – 7740 – 840 350 – 07740 – 840 – M is a high – performance single board computer module engineered for industrial automation and control systems. It combines advanced processing capabilities with a rugged design, making it suitable for deployment in demanding industrial environments.
High – Performance Processing
Equipped with an Intel Pentium III processor, this module can achieve processing speeds of up to 1.26 GHz. This powerful processing ability enables it to handle complex computational tasks and real – time data processing requirements efficiently. Whether it’s running intricate control algorithms in a manufacturing plant or processing large amounts of sensor data in an industrial monitoring system, the module’s processing power ensures smooth and timely operations.
VMEbus Compatibility
The module features a VMEbus interface, which is compliant with the VMEbus specification revision C.1. This compatibility allows for seamless integration with other VMEbus – based systems and components. It can easily communicate with a variety of industrial devices, such as sensors, actuators, and other control modules, within a VMEbus – networked industrial setup. The VMEbus interface also provides high – speed data transfer capabilities, ensuring rapid and reliable communication between the module and other elements in the system.
Memory and Storage
It offers 32 – bit addressing capabilities and a 64 – bit data bus, which enhance its data handling and memory access efficiency. The module can support up to 1 GB of on – board memory, providing sufficient space for data – intensive applications. Additionally, it may include features like a bootable flash disk system and non – volatile SRAM. The non – volatile SRAM helps in retaining important data even during power outages, while the bootable flash disk system enables quick and reliable system startup.
Additional Functionalities
The VMIVME – 7740 – 840 350 – 07740 – 840 – M also provides capabilities beyond those of a typical PC/AT – compatible single – board computer. It comes with general – purpose timers that can be used for tasks such as scheduling operations or measuring time intervals in industrial processes. A programmable watchdog timer is included to enhance system reliability. In case of software glitches or system malfunctions, the watchdog timer can reset the system, preventing it from getting stuck in an unresponsive state. These features make the module highly suitable for embedded applications in industrial settings.
