Advantech MIC-3392A – High-Performance CompactPCI Processor Board | MIC Series Platform
Engineering Background
The Advantech MIC-3392A is a 6U CompactPCI single-board computer engineered for mission-critical embedded computing environments. Built on the proven MIC (Modular Industrial Computing) platform, this board delivers the processing power of Intel’s Core 2 Duo architecture within the rugged, hot-swap-capable CompactPCI form factor—making it the preferred choice for system integrators in defense, transportation, telecommunications, and industrial automation.
Product Positioning
Designed for procurement engineers who require a long-lifecycle, standards-compliant processor board with deterministic performance, the MIC-3392A bridges legacy CompactPCI infrastructure with modern x86 computing. It is fully compatible with PICMG 2.0 R3.0 and supports both system-slot and peripheral-slot deployment, enabling flexible chassis integration without hardware redesign.

System Architecture & Signal Flow
The MIC-3392A occupies the system slot (J1/J2 connectors) of a standard 6U CompactPCI chassis. The Intel Core 2 Duo processor communicates with the CompactPCI backplane via the Intel 945GM/ICH7-M chipset, providing PCI bus mastering capability at up to 66 MHz. Front-panel I/O (VGA, USB, COM, GbE) is routed through the board’s front-panel bracket, while rear I/O expansion is available via the J3/J4/J5 connectors for PMC mezzanine modules or custom rear-transition modules (RTMs). The dual Gigabit Ethernet controllers operate independently on separate PCI buses, ensuring network traffic isolation for safety-critical applications.

Technical FAQ
Q: Is the MIC-3392A compatible with 3U CompactPCI chassis?
A: No. The MIC-3392A is a 6U form factor board and requires a 6U CompactPCI chassis with a PICMG 2.0-compliant backplane.
Q: Can the MIC-3392A operate as a peripheral slot board?
A: The MIC-3392A is designed as a system-slot (host) board. Peripheral-slot operation requires a separate system controller; consult Advantech’s chassis compatibility matrix.
Q: What is the maximum RAM supported?
A: The board supports up to 4 GB DDR2 SDRAM across two SODIMM slots (2 × 2 GB).
Q: Is a BSP available for Linux?
A: Yes. Advantech provides a Linux BSP (kernel 2.6.x) with drivers for all on-board peripherals. Contact Konmask.com for access to the BSP package.
Q: What export control classification applies?
A: The MIC-3392A may be subject to EAR (Export Administration Regulations) controls. Buyers are responsible for verifying applicable export license requirements for their jurisdiction.
