Abaco Systems / VMIC VMIVME-7614-132 Celeron VME64 Single-Board Computer

The Abaco Systems VMIVME-7614-132 is a VME64 single-board computer built around an Intel Celeron processor for industrial control and data acquisition in legacy VME environments. It delivers processing capability, onboard memory, and multiple I/O interfaces within a compact VME form factor, enabling system upgrades and long-term field deployment across diverse operating system platforms.

Technical Specifications

• Intel Celeron, Socket 370 processor module Memory


• 32 KB battery-backed SRAM


• Up to 512 MB IDE CompactFlash (optional) I/O Interfaces


• Two RS-232C serial ports (16550 compatible)


• PS/2 keyboard and mouse ports (front panel)


• VMEbus P2 connection for HD/floppy drive


• Software-selectable watchdog timer with reset function


• Up to three programmable 16-bit timer modules


• Ethernet connection for remote network booting

Key Features

• VME64 form factor for direct integration into existing VME backplanes


• Battery-backed SRAM preserves critical data during power loss


• Dual serial ports support legacy peripherals and real-time communications


• Programmable timer modules enable precision timing and event sequencing


• Watchdog timer provides autonomous system recovery


• IDE CompactFlash storage option eliminates mechanical drive failures

Operating System Support The VMIVME-7614-132 boots and runs on Windows NT, Windows 2000, Linux, VxWorks, QNX, and Solaris. This multi-OS capability allows integration into existing industrial control stacks without hardware redesign.

Compatibility & Integration Fully compatible with VME64 systems. The P2 VMEbus interface connects to drive subsystems, while front-panel PS/2 ports and serial interfaces support standard peripherals. Ethernet remote booting enables diskless operation and centralized image management in distributed VME clusters.
