System-on-Module ESM

MEN System-on-Module ESM

ESM – Embedded System Modules are complete computers on a module (System-On-Module – SOM).

They consist of the hardware (PC or RISC CPU, chip set, memory, I/O) which is not fixed to any application-

specific function, an FPGA programmed in VHDL code, which provides I/O that is also still independent of a

specific application, and the BSP support – i.e. Linux, Windows or a real-time operating system.

ESM modules are based on PCI. They have two system connectors: J1 has a fixed signal assignment, while J2 is

variable depending on the final application-specific configuration of the ESM and the carrier board. J2 also feeds

the I/O signals of the functions programmed in the FPGA to the carrier card. Some ESM modules include an

additional J3 connector that is used to replace the front I/O connectors to route the signals to the carrier board

or to the backplane of a CompactPCI or VMEbus system.

ESM modules can be used stand-alone, plugged onto a customized carrier card and/or stacked with PCI-104

modules. Serial interface adapters (SA-Adapters) provide access to additional line physics on any type of ESM

carrier board. The FPGA on every ESM additionally allows implementation of IP cores tailored to the application.

ESM modules have been developed to work also in rugged environments – shock, vibration, drop, resonance,

humidity, chemicals, -40 to +85°C operation temperature.
