XPedite5000

The XPedite5000 is an intelligent communications controller targeting high-performance yet low-cost applications. Powered by the NXP (formerly Freescale) PowerQUICC™ III MPC8540 processor, the XPedite5000 supports two Gigabit Ethernet IEEE 802.3-compliant interfaces. The XPedite5000 provides two UARTs and eight general-purpose pins routed to the backplane connector. Coupled with X-ES supplied software, customers can install the XPedite5000 on standard VME and cPCI platforms, or custom motherboards that support PMC sites.

With the PowerQUICC™ III’s integrated PCI-X, DDR SDRAM, and Ethernet interfaces, the PowerQUICC™ III offers a highly optimized solution for packet processing and general computing applications. The serial and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces are accessible either through the front panel or P14 I/O.

For performance systems, the XPedite5000 can be used as an XMC in which the 500 MHz, 8-bit RapidIO interface can be used in accordance with VITA 42 in parallel or in substitution of the 133 MHz, 64-bit PCI-X 1.0a, PCI 2.2-compliant interface.
