MSC Vertriebs Announces CXC-GS45 COM Express Type 2 Modules
Highest computing power in the compact COM Express[tm]-Format 95 x 95 mm fully compliant to the COM Express[tm] Type 2 specification – these are the highlights of the new module family CXC-GS45 offered by the MSC Vertriebs GmbH. The platform is based on the recently announced devices in small form factor (SFF) from Intel’s Embedded Low Power Roadmap. In conjunction with single-core and dual-core processors built in 45nm technology, the Intel® GS45 Graphics and Memory Controller Hub (GMCH) and the enhanced Intel® I/O Controller Hub (ICH9-M) have been implemented. Performance leaps of up to 300% – compared to the previous platform – are expected to be achieved by means of the new architecture and higher clock speeds of the front-side bus, memory and graphics.
OPC Training Institute to Discuss Unified Architecture Specification
The OPC Training Institute (OPCTI), an independent training organization, is scheduled, on September 16, 2008, to address the impact of the OPC Foundation’s OPC Unified Architecture (UA) specification on the worldwide manufacturing industry. The OPC UA specification was first proposed in 2004, however it is only in 2008 when OPC integrators have seen products available with the UA wrapper. The evolution of OPC has many automation personnel and engineers asking if the new OPC standard is making their existing OPC data communication networks obsolete.
