Motorola, Inc. announced availability of the PrPMC6001, the company’s fastest Processor PMC module. It is designed to enable OEMs to boost their platform compute and I/O performance while maintaining power and thermal characteristics.

The power and versatility of the company’s processor module may enable engineers that are designing leading-edge pervasive computing and embedded network control and signal processing applications, such as flight computers, software defined radio and command, control and communications systems, to quickly add processing power.

Featuring a Freescale MPC7448 PowerPC(R) G4 architecture processor running at speeds of up to 1.4 GHz, the module uses an integrated system controller to give the processor high-speed access to up to one GB of external memory with Motorola support and up to 256MB of flash memory. It features dual independent Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, one of which has optional SerDes support, routed to the PMC connector. It supports both real-time and Linux operating systems for enhanced customer flexibility.
