The CP6012 is designed for use as a System Master board whereby it can
support up to 7 peripheral boards with up to 64-bit / 66 MHz.
It may, however, be operated in a peripheral slot in which case it does not
support the CompactPCI bus interface.
When installed in a peripheral slot, the CP6012 is electrically isolated from
the CompactPCI bus. It receives power from the backplane and supports rear
I/O and, if the system supports it, packet switching (in this case up to two
channels of Gigabit Ethernet).
When operated as a System Master, the CP6012 supports individual clocks
for each slot and ENUM signal handling is in compliance with the PICMG 2.1
Hot Swap Specification.
When operated in a peripheral slot the CP6012 supports basic hot swap.
The CP6012 can be operated under the following operating systems:
•
Microsoft® Windows® XP with Service Pack 1 or higher
•
Microsoft® Windows® XP Embedded
•
Microsoft® Windows® Server 2003
•
Linux®
•
VxWorks®
Please contact Kontron for further information concerning the operation of
the CP6012 with other operating systems.
