## Overview

The Leopard-V is a VME-bus single-board computer. It features a UltraSPARC IIIi processor, up to 2GB of SDRAM, and provides interfaces like Gigabit Ethernet, serial ports, and SCSI. Designed for real-time embedded systems, it includes a PMC/XMC site for I/O expansion. Its conformal coating enhances operational reliability in harsh environments such as those found in military and aerospace applications.

## Function

Designed as a rugged, conformal coated VME-bus single board computer, it functions to provide reliable processing using the UltraSPARC processor architecture in harsh environments. It operates on a 6U VME hardware platform, interfacing via the VMEbus backplane for high-speed data and control signal exchange with other modules. The board connects to system I/O and supports integration with accessory modules and operator consoles through VMEbus and standard communication protocols, commonly employed in defense, aerospace, and other mission-critical embedded applications requiring high computational performance and environmental durability.

## Platform

This UltraSPARC V VME-Bus Single Board Computer performs high-performance embedded processing, real-time data acquisition, signal processing, and control. It operates within a standard VME-Bus chassis, utilizing the backplane for power and inter-board communication. Interfaces include VME-Bus to other cards and various industrial I/O (Ethernet, serial) for connection to sensors, actuators, and networks. Common applications include defense/aerospace, industrial automation, and scientific instrumentation, especially in harsh environments due to its conformal coating.

## Application

High-performance real-time processing and data acquisition in rugged VME-based embedded systems; interfaces via VMEbus connectors; designed for integration in military, aerospace, and industrial control applications requiring conformal coating for environmental resistance.

## Accessories

Requires VME64x backplane with J1/J2 160-pin DIN connectors. Front panel includes dual RJ-45 Ethernet ports, RS-232 DB-9 serial console port, and optional PMC/XMC mezzanine site with P4/P5 connectors. Rear transition module connects through P2 for additional I/O including SCSI-2 68-pin high-density connector, secondary serial DB-9 port, and keyboard/mouse PS/2 ports. Supports CompactPCI-style ejector handles and IEEE 1101.10/11 conduction cooling wedgelocks. Compatible with 3.3V/5V VME signaling. Conformal coating requires specialized extraction tools for board handling.

## Interface

VME64x backplane interface for 6U form factor; single UltraSPARC processor interface (64-bit SPARC V9 ISA core); standard VMEbus connectors including 96-pin P1 and P2 VME connectors; front panel I/O via standard VME front panel; conformal coating applied for environmental protection (moisture, dust); typical power and reset connectors compatible with VME chassis; processor-specific interfaces include memory controller and PCI bridges internally connected.
