MAGIC1

Using the latest in desktop performance technology, GE Fanuc Embedded System’s MAGIC1 Rugged Display Computer delivers unprecedented graphics performance to the rugged marketplace. Combining the processing power of the Intel Core 2 Duo with the NVIDIA G73, connected together with 16-lane PCI ExpressTM, the MAGIC1 Rugged Display Processor is capable of driving the industry’s most demanding visual applications. The processing node consists of an Intel T7400 Core 2 Duo CPU running at 2.16 GHz with 4 Mbytes of L2 cache. System memory is made up of two banks of dual data rate DDR2 SDRAM, with capacity up to 4 GBytes. The graphics processing node is based on the dual channel NVIDIA G73 graphics processing unit, as featured on the NVIDIA GeForceTM 7600GT, and incorporating 256 Mbytes of GDDR3 SDRAM arranged in two banks. The interface between GPU and CPU is 16-lane PCI Express, allowing maximum bandwidth between the two processors, and delivering a new level of performance to drive the industry’s most demanding visual applications, such as Embedded Training, digital mapping, and terrain visualization. Storage is provided by a solid state disk drive, which boasts a capacity of up to 64 GBytes, sustained read performance of 45 Mbytes/second, and a purge facility to allow data on the drive to be securely deleted in an emergency. The MAGIC1 Rugged Display Processor is packaged in a base-plate cooled chassis, capable of operating in the harsh environments demanded by military and aerospace customers.
