Overview
The EPC-8 is a highly integrated PC-compatible computer designed specifically for
use in the VMEbus and extended VMEbus (VXIbus) environments. It is compatible
with all major PC software environments, including Microsoft DOS, Microsoft
Windows 3.x, Microsoft Windows NT, and IBM OS/2, plus others.
It is available as either a one-slot or two-slot 6U VMEbus module. The two
configurations are functionally identical, and differ only in that the two-slot module
includes mechanical support for two EXM modules.
The PC-compatible portion of the architecture includes the following PC-standard
features:
o Intel I486 DX2-50 or DX2-66 processor.
o 4, 8, or 16MB of 36-bit DRAM, using an industry standard 80-ns fast page mode
72 pin SIMM.
o Standard PC peripheral interfaces including an RS232 serial port and a bi-
directional parallel port, all with standard interface connectors. The keyboard
connector is PS/2 style, with an adapter included.
o All other standard PC architectural features, including an on-board speaker.
o RadiSys standard EXM expansion interface for adding PC-architecture
peripherals or interfaces.
