FORCE SPARC ESP5S-85/0-S High-Performance SPARC Processor Module – SPARC VMEbus Embedded CPU Series
When a SPARC processor module fails on the production floor, the consequences are immediate and severe. Real-time control loops collapse, HMI screens go dark, and entire manufacturing lines grind to a halt — costing thousands of dollars per hour in unplanned downtime. The FORCE SPARC ESP5S-85/0-S is the mission-critical embedded CPU that keeps VMEbus-based control systems running without interruption. Its absence is not an option in high-availability industrial environments.
Within the FORCE SPARC embedded processor family, the ESP5S-85/0-S occupies a premium technical tier — engineered for demanding real-time processing tasks across VMEbus architectures. FORCE Computers (now part of Curtiss-Wright Defense Solutions) established a global reputation for ruggedized SPARC-based single-board computers deployed in aerospace, defense, power generation, and advanced manufacturing. The ESP5S-85/0-S continues that legacy as a trusted compute backbone for legacy and hybrid automation systems worldwide.
