Acromag’s New Next Generation 6U VME i7 Processor Board

An FPGA Module designed for applications requiring low-power without sacrificing high performance.
Acromag XVME-6510

Acromag’s new 6U VME 4th generation Intel® Core™ single board computer features a FPGA-based VME to PCIe-bridge that will extend the life of your VME system.

Acromag’s XVME-6510 is a high-performance 6U VME single board computer based on the 4th Generation Intel® Core™ i7 processor and utilises the Intel 8-Series QM87 PCH chipset for extensive I/O support. Two ruggedised SODIMMs offer up to 16GB of high-speed DDR3L removable memory plus 32GB of flash memory. The air-cooled XVME-6510 features dual PMC/XMC sites, DVI-D display, and programmable CPU power limits for heat sensitive applications. Expansion capabilities for further customisation is available. VxWorks® and Linux® software support, ROHS compliance and extended temperature options are available.


The XVME-6510 is a CPU module that uses an Intel® 4th Generation Core™ i7 processor (Haswell) and the 6U VME64X VMEbus form factor. The board can support either one or two DDR3L ECC SODIMMs, for a total of up to 16GB.  The SODIMMs are firmly attached to the module with screws and are surrounded by heat sink material to provide a mechanically and thermally robust mounting mechanism.  Extended temperature models are available for operating in a -40°C to +75°C range. The two PMC/XMC sites can be used in any combination. An optional P0 connector allows two Gigabit Ethernet connections. Forego one PMC/XMC module and add the optional XBRD-9060 I/O expander module and increase I/O on the front panel and add two SSD mSATA drives. Also optional is the XVME-9640 rear-transition module for easy access to all P2 connector’s I/O signals.
