10 Gbps RapidIO in MicroTCA for wireless networking
RapidIO switching can be used for both processor aggregation on baseband cards and backplane connectivity between cards to create low-cost basestations in a MicroTCA form factor.
Devashish guides us through the various off-the-shelf elements with AMC.4 compliance that can be used to develop such basestations.

CP-TA addresses AdvancedTCA and MicroTCA interoperability
As with any specification, the PICMG AdvancedTCA and MicroTCA specifications can be interpreted by users in different ways.
As a result of these varying interpretations, firmware designers and implementers have occasionally created building blocks that are not interoperable with one another.
Nirlay will address interoperability in this article, beginning with the objectives of the Communications Platforms Trade Association (CP-TA, www.cp-ta.or...

Isn't MicroTCA enterprising?
From its inception, the MicroTCA standard was envisioned to span many market spaces and stimulate new classes of applications.
To achieve these goals, MicroTCA vendors have focused on several areas in the specification, such as packaging and modularity, giving particular attention to optimizing MicroTCA systems to lower costs.
As a result of this intense focus and right in line with PICMG’s original vision, the industry’s first des...

MicroTCA power module input connectors
Following on the heels of the AdvancedTCA standard, which was developed by the PICMG subcommittee, the MicroTCA version defines a specification for small, low-cost systems that over time are expected to find their way into a whole range of new applications.

Real-world applications for Ruggedized MicroTCA are here
Since the introduction of VME more than 25 years ago, the industry has not seen an embedded computing architecture as capable of serving a broad cross-section of market segments.
However, the time has arrived.
MicroTCA is emerging as that architecture, with applications spanning commercial, industrial, medical, telecommunications, and federal markets.
The federal government is in the process of revamping the communications infrastructure that...
