VMIVME-7807RC (GE/Abaco 6U VMEbus Pentium M SBC, RoHS)

Product Description The VMIVME-7807RC (now VME-7807RC under Abaco Systems) is a 6U single‑slot, passively cooled VMEbus single‑board computer (SBC) designed by GE Fanuc for rugged embedded, industrial, aerospace, and defense applications. Based on the Intel Pentium M platform with the 855GME chipset, it delivers balanced performance, low power, and rich I/O in a single VME slot; the RC suffix denotes RoHS compliance.

Core Functions

Pentium M Performance, Low Power: Balances speed (up to 1.8 GHz) and efficiency for fanless, rugged deployments.

Dual Gigabit Ethernet + VITA 31.1: Redundant, high‑speed networking for real‑time control and data acquisition.

Dual‑Head Graphics (VGA + DVI‑D): Supports local and remote display for HMI and monitoring.

PMC Expansion: One 66 MHz PMC slot adds custom I/O, comms, or signal processing.

RoHS & Ruggedization: RC variant meets environmental standards; passive cooling and wide temp range suit harsh conditions.

Applications

Industrial Automation: DCS, PLC, real‑time control, HMI, data acquisition.

Aerospace & Defense: Avionics, radar/sonar processing, rugged test benches, mission computing.

Test & Measurement: ATE, hardware‑in‑the‑loop (HIL), high‑channel‑count DAQ.

Energy & Power: Turbine control, power plant monitoring, grid automation.

Usage & Maintenance

Installation: Insert into 6U VME chassis; connect front I/O (VGA, ETH, USB, COM) and rear I/O (DVI, SATA, power).

Configuration: Set VME address/IRQs via BIOS; configure PMC and network via OS utilities.

Maintenance: Passive cooling requires no fan maintenance; keep connectors clean; annual BIOS/watchdog check.

Status: EOL (end‑of‑life); replaced by Abaco’s modern VPX/VME SBCs (e.g., VME‑7900 series).
