Ensemble 1000 Family of Systems Fully Integrated Ultra-Compact Embedded Computers • Modular heterogeneous systems with high-performance processors and I/O • High-bandwidth, non-blocking, serial switching architecture • State-of-the-art liquid or conduction cooling • Designed for ruggedized deployments in harsh environments The Ensemble™ 1000 Family of Systems from Mercury Computer Systems represents a new class of embedded computers designed for maximum performance in minimal size. Fully integrated and programmable, the Ensemble 1000 systems are ideal for real-time image, sensor, and signal processing applications. Rugged Design High-Performance Integrated Systems Software Environment The Ensemble 1000 systems ship fully integrated and preconfigured to meet your specific requirements. With a combination of Intel® x86 processors, field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), and graphics processing units (GPUs), fully loaded Ensemble 1000 systems provide high-performance computing for the most demanding applications. They feature a modular architecture that allows flexible configurations of heterogeneous multiprocessor arrays, high-performance I/O, and local storage to meet application-specific requirements. The Ensemble 1000 Linux® BSP development environment includes cross-compile and debug tools targeting Intel® EP80579 and Core i7 processors. Details and physical specifications are described in the data sheets for the system’s PowerBlock® 50 and PowerBlock 15 chassis. Detailed descriptions and specifications for individual processing and storage modules are described in the data sheets for those modules. The processing architecture and performance suit diverse applications including: System Architecture The architecture of the Ensemble 1000 systems is optimized for real-time processing, balancing processing power with high-bandwidth inter-processor communications and external I/O bandwidth. External I/O can be customized to accommodate virtually any type of digital or analog I/O. The Ensemble 1000 systems are designed for rugged deployments, with features including o-ring sealing for pressure, humidity and EMI isolation, high-reliability connectors, extended temperature ranges, and module wedge locks for shock and vibration immunity. Applications The Ensemble 1000’s unique blend of high-performance processing, ultra-compact packaging, and rugged design make it ideal for deployment in space-constrained and harsh environments, such as unmanned air and ground vehicles. • Video processing and fusion • Radar signal processing • Mission computing • Signals intelligence • Software define
