VME system integration and embedded software developement. Integrating CPUs, I/O boards, backplanes, power supplies, card cages, and software into a working VME system can be a daunting and time-consuming task. Although your own staff is probably best equipped to develop your applications, they often will not have the time or the detailed knowledge of the VME bus architecture to properly configure interrupt levels, bus grant priorities, DMA channels, or to develop the driver level software required to allow different boards in your system to communicate. Unless you integrate large numbers of VME systems, it may not be cost-effective to develop this expertise in house.

DeviceIQ is a leading integrator of VME systems, and can work with your staff to provide the capabilities needed to get your systems running quickly, and in the most cost-efficient manner depending on the level of your in-house expertise. DeviceIQ can provided the following types of services:

  • Selection and configuration of required hardware including CPU boards, I/O boards, peripheral devices, power supplies, chassis and racks to meet your system requirements.
  • Selection and configuration of operating systems and other third-party software to meet your requirements. Selection is based on both the functional requirements of target system, the development tools available, the experience and preferences of your staff, and compatibility with the existing development infrastructure of your organization.
  • Analysis and design of system data flow, including comparison of various data channels such as the VME backplane versus high-speed channels such as Raceway Interlink, Front Panel Data Port (FPDP), switched serial buses, Myrinet, and SKYchannel. Use of the SCSA backplane for telephony applications is also considered. The design process considers the allocation of DMA channels, interrupts, and bus and memory bandwidth.
  • Development of requisite drivers and system software, including implementation of standards-based or custom communication protocols, to link the components of the system together and manage the system hardware to support the system data flow design.

The DeviceIQ team has integrated systems using Windows 2000/XP, Linux, and real-time operating systems including VxWorks, and is ready to provide the support you need for the rapid implementation of your system requirements.
