Overview: The Pizza Box is an 8-slot TIM-40 motherboard in a SPARC-style desktop chassis. It is designed for use in TMS320C4x DSP systems, and supports a variety of plug-in TIM-40 modules from Traquair. It also has a built-in power supply and a cooling fan. The Pizza Box can connect to an external host interface through a TIM-40 Comport, to communicate with a host computer. Traquair provides interfaces for SBus, ISA, PCI, PC/104 and VME systems. The TIM-40 slots are connected in a double Comport pipeline, with the 20 remaining Comports available at buffered connectors for connection to a host interface and other Traquair motherboards. Four Comports can connect directly through the back panel. Optional TIM-40 processing modules are available from Traquair, with up to two TMS320C40 or four TMS320C44 processors on each module (for a total of up to 32 C4x DSPs per Pizza Box). These modules can include onboard zero-wait-state SRAM, EDRAM, or DRAM. Traquair also has many application-specific TIM-40 modules for image processing, data acquisition, remote communications, and data storage. In addition, custom hardware and third-party IndustryPacks can be added with special modules. See our website for more details: http://www.traquair.com
