Versatile PMC cards are an effective solution to system expansion

BVM has updated its selection of PMC mezzanine cards, a well-established and proven technology for adding additional capability to VMEbus and CompactPCI systems. The most popular modules provide easily implemented interfaces to external hardware. The PMCUSB2 is a 5-port USB module that gives three USB2.0 ports at the front on the card and two at the rear. The PMCSATA module provides two independent interfaces for hard disks; the PMCCF2 is a CompactFlash and IDE Controller supporting up to 1 GB of removable non-volatile memory on two CompactFlash cards, giving removable storage and boot capability for many different operating systems.
