Main Features

• PMC/PTMC form-factor DSP farm, pre-integrated with leading cPCI and ATCA carrier boards
• Utilizes eight TI TMS320C6412 DSPs on board for exceptional processing power
• Includes Layer-2 switch with direct network connection for each DSP
• Carrier-grade, field-proven and cost-effective solution
• Built-in diagnostics, providing easier troubleshooting and better application control

The SURF Engine PTMC (a.k.a. SURFRider PTMC) board is a fully integrated RoHS-compliant PMC/PTMC DSP resource board providing multimedia processing capabilities. Featuring cost-effective processing power and SURF’s Open Framework design, which allows seamless integration of user-defined and proprietary algorithms, the PTMC board is the ideal choice for development of a wide range of carrier-grade applications.

SURF’s PTMC DSP resource board provides a powerful, yet flexible, computing environment for developers of multimedia applications. The board is supplied with multiple drivers and a variety of interfaces.

The SURF Engine PTMC board is truly a PMC form-factor board. All DSPs are located on the top of the board for efficient cooling. It includes complete on-board power generation, using 5V and 3.3V levels. The board is fully PMC- and PTMC-compliant, compatible with a wide range of host platforms, and integrates with PCI, cPCI, and ATCA carrier boards.
