System Overview Specifications PDF Specifications Sheet

System Overview

PDSI’s new AMD Socket AM2 AMC Processor Module (AMC-A2) is a high performance computing module for use in AdvancedTCA® and MicroTCA™ (μTCA) systems. Designed around AMD’s latest x86-based Athlon™ processors, it provides exceptional computing power in the convenient and versatile AdvancedMC™ (AMC) form factor.

The AMC-A2 complies with the most current PICMG specifications for operation in ATCA and μTCA applications. It supports all the relevant sub-specifications to insure compatibility with the broad set of interface options presented by AMC carriers – including SAS/SATA, Ethernet and PCI-Express. It also features an onboard Pigeon Point module management controller (MMC) for assurance of module health and hot-swap ability.
