The High Performance Computing Platform II (HPC II) is a high-performance server reference design which is optimized for high speed throughput between the processor and the memory, disk drive and Ethernet port subsystems.
HPC II is designed to the micro-ATX chassis, allowing it to be used in a standard ATX/Micro-ATX chassis.
In addition, advanced thermal management demonstrates the low power consumption and minimal cooling requirements needed for NXP® Semiconductors built on Power Architecture technology.
application note
This application note applies to the MPC7447A and MPC7448 processors embedded on an HPC II platform. It describes the implementation of an Automatic Thermal Monitoring System (ATMS) that can be used to automatically control the processor core temperature.
This document describes the design rules used for the High-Performance Computing Platform II (HPC II). Specifically it addresses issues for the design of the circuit board, such as layout, power supplies, and so forth.
NXP Semiconductors Power Architecture™ technology-based evaluation and development platforms may optionally implement a “System ID” non-volatile memory device. This device stores important configuration data about the board.
This application note describes the process of obtaining U-Boot source code and building a binary that runs on NXP’s High Performance Platform II (HPC II, also referred to as Taiga).
This document describes the known errata and limitations of the HPC II reference platform, revision V2.
The High-Performance Computing Platform II (HPC II) is a high-performance PowerPC server reference design that is optimized for high-speed throughput between the processor and the memory, disk drive, and Ethernet port subsystems.
