The Curtiss-Wright/Synergy Microsystems V452-D is a VMEbus Single Board Computer engineered for high-performance embedded computing in industrial, commercial, and military environments. It accommodates single or dual Motorola 68060 or 68040 processors with integrated memory expansion, 10Base-T Ethernet connectivity, and EZ-Bus mezzanine support for modular system integration.
## Technical Specifications
• **Processors:** Motorola 68060 (50/66 MHz) or 68040 (25/33 MHz); single or dual configuration
• **Memory:** Up to 128 MB DRAM; up to 16 MB Flash
• **Networking:** 10Base-T Ethernet
• **Expansion Interface:** EZ-Bus mezzanine system for high-bandwidth peripheral integration; VME64 extensions supported
• **Power Consumption:** 50% reduction versus comparable boards in class
• **Form Factor:** VMEbus
## Key Features
• Low power architecture reduces thermal and electrical load in deployed systems
• Flexible dual-processor architecture scales computational capacity without board redesign
• EZ-Bus mezzanine integration enables modular I/O and protocol expansion without backplane constraints
• Environmental hardening options including ruggedization, EMI compliance, and conformal coating
• Bellcore and Nynex compliance certification available
## Typical Applications
Mission-critical embedded systems requiring sustained CPU performance with minimal power draw. Telecommunications and industrial control platforms where modular expansion and environmental durability are mandatory. Defense and aerospace systems operating under stringent electromagnetic and thermal constraints.
## Compatibility & Integration
The V452-D integrates into existing VME64 backplane architectures and accepts standard EZ-Bus mezzanine cards for protocol and I/O expansion. Processor selection and memory configuration support both 68040 and 68060 families without cross-platform redesign.
