MPL Industrial PC with Freescale PowerPC™ Processor
The MIP470 is a highly integrated industrial single board computer in PC/104 form factor. Build around the
MPC8347 Freescale PowerPC™ Processor it is well suited for applications requiring small size, high
performance and Low Power. The MIP470 can be used in a standard operating environment without the
necessity of a fan.
All major components required to build a industrial PC system are implemented on a single PC/104 sized
board. It features two E-IDE, two 10/100/1000Base TX Ethernet, two USB Ports, four serial ports, and a real
time clock. The PC/104+ (PCI) interface offers easy and flexible expansion capabilities.
Integration of the MIP470 into a system is facilitated by the fact of offering standard connectors E-IDE (44
pin header) and LAN (RJ45). The serial interfaces can be accessed through 2mm 10pin headers. Particular
precaution has been taken to the EMC so that an entire system can fulfill the CE and FCC requirements.
The DDR SDRAM is soldered on board and is available with ECC.
All these features make the MIP470 to the ideal solution for any low-cost embedded control application
where a flexible industrial PC is needed.
