MPC8572PC+Type-N Carrier
MPC8572PC + Type-A Carrier
Overview
To help the network equipment
manufacturers simplify the system design and establish the Intelligent Network
application, MICETEK provides a more quick and
convenience solution of development board based on Freescale MPC8572
processor, which consists of a reusable MPC8572 processor card and two
kinds of carriers for different applications. Combined with MPC8572PC, Type-N carrier can be used for Network Communication application,
while Type-A for ATCA/MicroTCA chassis. It
reduces the design cycle and saves the investment for the designer.
Advantages of Using the MPC8572PC
1 Flexibility
2 Shortening of the design cycle
3 Reusability
4 Ease of Debug
5 Standardized reference
