Computer Backplane

Backplanes allow for control of the Industrial Computer (IPC) system by inserting a Single Board Computer (SBC) into a dedicated PICMG 1.0/1.3, PISA, PCI, ISA or PICOe slot. Expansion slots allow for additional card types such as Motion Controllers, I/O cards, Vision cards and many others. Backplanes are standard components of Industrial Computers, IPC's. Backplanes range from 2 slots to 20 slots from a variety of PCI, PCIe, ISA, PISA, PICOe and PICMG 1.0/1.3 configurations.

Single Board Computer

The Single Board Computer (SBC) is the heart of all TCS control systems. TCS Single Board Computers (SBCs) are catagorized by Chipset, CPU, Form Factor and Interface. TCS offers SBC's from fanless to Quad Core configurations ranging in size from PC/104 to EATX Motherboards. What ever your requirements TCS has a Single Board Computer (SBC) to meet them.

Chipset for Single Board Computer
Chipset for Single Board Computer
The chipset controls the Single Board Computer (SBC) and its capabilities. All components on the SBC and through the SBC interface communicate with the processor through the chipset - it is the hub of all data transfer. The chipset uses the DMA controller and the bus controller to organize the steady flow of data that it controls. The chipset is a series of chips attached directly to the SBC, and is usually second in size only to the processor on the SBC. Chipsets are integrated (soldered onto the SBC) and are not upgradeable without a new SBC. TCS SBC's use chipsets that support Embedded CPU's as well as CPU's up to and including the Intel Quad Core CPU's.
