SKYbolt 9U
Delivering 64 GFLOPS of performance when fully populated, the SKYbolt II 9U VME motherboard is the foundation
of SKY's VME solution, adding intelligent support for system services and high-performance data transfers to
the carrier board for SKY's Merlin daughtercard containing compute processors, I/O
interfaces, and global memory. A separate System Processor resident on the motherboard handles system
overhead functions that would otherwise burden the compute processors. The
SKYchannel packet bus transfers data at 320 MB/sec to continually keep the
high performance processors operating at peak efficiency. Compatible with SKY's MPC7410-based Merlin,
the SKYbolt II motherboard ensures that the compute processors are well fed and protected from distractions
so that they can do their main job of executing the numerically-intensive application.
