02D003A01 (MEN MIKRO)

The D3 is a single-board computer for embedded applications based on the MPC 8245 PowerPC®. It can be used in a CompactPCI® system slot or as a stand-alone card. The D3 comes with the MPC8245 PowerPC® with 300MHz clock frequency and a local 32-bit/33-MHz PCI data bus. It is a complete state-of-the-art SBC offering DRAM, Flash and CompactFlash® memory, dual Fast Ethernet, 4 COMs, USB, IDE and keyboard/mouse interfaces as well as an optional onboard hard disk. In addition, the D3B CPU board can be equipped with M-Module™ mezzanine cards. M-Modules™ are recommended for real-world I/O like analog/binary process I/O and instrumentation I/O. The modular combination of I/O functionality on a single-board computer allows to build up tailored control systems which appear as customized solutions based on standard components. Depending on the kind of I/O requirements, further standard versions of D3 are available for other mezzanine standards. The D3 comes with MENMON™ support. MENMON™ is a sort of BIOS which can be used for bootstrapping operating systems (from disk, flash or network), for hardware testing, or for debugging applications without running any operating system.
