Product Short Description
The IPMC712 is a multifunction PMC (PCI Mezzanine Card) I/O module that plugs onto Motorola / Emerson PowerPlus II VME single-board computers such as MVME5100, MVME5500 and MVME6100. It delivers legacy rear-panel connectivity and additional processing power in one compact mezzanine card.
