VME board mimics SPARCstation 20
Compatible with the SPARCstation 20 workstation, the SPARC 20 MP board from Themis Computer allows multiprocessor configurations. The VME64 board uses a 50-MHz Mbus expansion bus to connect to CPU modules. The modules can contain as many as four hyperSPARC processors. The board offers 10baseT Ethernet, Centronics, audio, serial, and SCSI-2 I/O ports. It also provides flash PROM and battery-backed SRAM and can handle as much as 512 Mbytes of DRAM. Prices begin at $9995.
