More Information
Abaco Systems / Radstone PME 68-42 VME Single Board Computer Overview
Features:
- Up to 36 Mbytes of Distributed Multi-Port RAM
- SCSI and Ethernet Interfaces with Built-In DMA
- 68020-Based I/O Subsystem
- (4) RS232C Serial Ports with RS422/RS485 Options
Both boards combine the processing power of Motorola's 68040, with up to 36 Mbytes of RAM, on-board SCSI, Ethernet and APEX interfaces, plus four serial ports, all under the control of a dedicated 68020 acting as an intelligent I/O processor.
The 68-41 features a VSB interface, allowing concurrent data transfers over VME and VSB. For systems not requiring VSB, the 68-42 provides a software compatible platform that uses the P2 user-defined pins for I/O connections. A range of transition modules is available to convert P2 inputs/outputs to industry standard connectors.
The Abaco Systems PME 68-42 VME Single Board Computer may still be available for purchase and support from Artisan Technology Group beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

What Customers Are Saying
- Haley D. Google
AMAZING PEOPLE. AMAZING WORK.
- Neo Google
Contacted Artisan for hard to find that has been out of circulation for nearly a decade. Their rapid response and availability exceeded all other suppliers. They supplied the part overnight to an out of state facility which allowed us to repair our equipment successfully. Well packed electronics. Well stated and professional documentation. I work with a hundred different suppliers any day of the week in my profession. Artisan remains at the very top of the bookmark tab. Thanks so much.
- Lonnie G.
Don’t worry about damage to your items during shipping – the box ours came in could have taken a beating and would have still survived!
- Albert P.
I just want to thank you and the staff at Artisan for your prompt dispatch of the 34401A main board. I got it a couple of hrs. ago, removed the old board, installed the new and the result is as shown in the attachment. It not only works, but is calibrated to the last digit! I am very pleased and will definitely recommend your firm to my friends and colleagues. I really appreciate doing business with a firm that values service.
- Kamal A.
We found Artisan when our PXI Chassis broke, which shut down our production line. We were up and running in less than a day because they shipped overnight and talked our tech guys through the installation over the phone. ATG saved the day big time!
- Kevin K. Google
Great company staff is extremely knowledgeable!!
- Brian S.
Artisan saved us headaches and money by helping us find a replacement Tektronix VXI module. Finding quality replacement parts is difficult and I'm glad they had what I needed.
- Matt R. Google
I found that the staff is very knowledgeable. I would recommend them to anyone looking for this type of equipment!
