Selection Guide
Use the following criteria to determine whether the FRCE CPCI-745 PMK050608E02 or an equivalent is right for your application:
- Step 1 — Confirm Form Factor: Verify your chassis accepts 6U CompactPCI boards (PICMG 2.0).
- Step 2 — Check Processor Requirement: Confirm whether your software stack requires PowerPC or x86 architecture.
- Step 3 — Validate I/O Needs: Match required interfaces (Ethernet ports, serial, PMC site) to the board’s I/O specification.
- Step 4 — Assess OS Compatibility: Ensure your RTOS or OS is supported by the board’s BSP (Board Support Package).
- Step 5 — Evaluate Lifecycle: For long-term projects, consider availability of spare units and support from the supplier.
- Step 6 — Request a Quote: Contact Konmask with your quantity, condition preference (new/refurbished), and delivery timeline.
