  Description 

  The A17 is an advanced PowerPC® based single-board computer for embedded applications and can act as a master or a slave in a legacy VMEbus environment. Using the TSI148 bridge controller the CPU card provides 2eSST performance levels while maintaining backwards compatibility with older standards such as VME64 and VME32. The 2eSST protocol is based on synchronous data transfer and thus doubles the theoretical VME transaction bandwidth to transfer rates of up to 320 MB/s.
