CPU Module: PPCHAMELEON
CPU DDR-SO-DIMM Board (PowerPC 405EP)
Description:
PPChameleon is the synthesis of power, low cost, flexibility e compactness. It's built upon the PowerPC 405EP and can drive digital I/Os, an external data and address bus, two Ethernet interfaces and a PCI bus in host mode. The compactness of the module (provided with DDR SO-DIMM double height 67,60 x 63,50mm form factor), the PowerPC reliability, the hardware on-board features, the quantity and quality of the available interfaces, make this board the state of the art in its domain and a reference point for Linux developers.
Technical characteristics:
Processor: AMCC PowerPC 405EP (133, 266 or 333 MHz)
RAM: 32 to 128 MByte
Flash NOR: 2 to 8 MByte
Flash NAND: 16 to 128 MByte
Models and order codes:
