MicroTCA, a Flexible Toolbox with AMCs

From Kontron USA
 

 

The resulting systems are extremely compact and efficient and are outstanding as solutions in the areas of telecommunications, medical technology and complex automation systems.

MicroTCA Release 1.0 was published in July 2006 as the standard of the PICMG
(PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers Group) for system architectures with AdvancedMC modules. The standard uses the AdvancedMCs already developed and available for AdvancedTCA without any changes, directly in its own small chassis.
