Xi3 Backplanes
Xi3 Backplanes
The patented Xi3 Backplanes are the "X Factor" to the Xi3 architecture. Unique connector or interface requirements can easily be customized into the Xi3 Backplane of each Modular Computer to meet specific requirements without the traditional complex system design challenges and cost. Because the Xi3 architecture separates standard system requirements, such as processor and memory, from custom or special application requirements, the Xi3 design approach allows for rapid and inexpensive development of new and innovative technologies.
For example, a medical device manufacturer or distributor can carry multiple computerdriven devices such as x-ray machines, ultrasound devices, etc. However, to inventory these devices for rapid deployment upon receipt of customer orders is costly, especially since a complete computer system, which drives the specific devices, can cost thousands of dollars each. As a result, there has never been a way for multiple types of computer driven devices to share common components . . . until now.
Changing from multiple custom computer systems to one core Xi3 design would allow the manufacturer or distributor to reduce their inventory from complete systems costing thousands of dollars each to merely costs for customized Xi3 Backplanes, one for each application. The manufacturer or distributor would then only have to purchase the "core" or most expensive portion of the device when an order is placed. This innovative approach to product line management can reduce inventory costs in some cases by up to 90%!
Xi3 is the first architecture to separate the Southbridge chip of a chipset solution from the core processor and the Northbridge chipset. This innovative "Southbridge Agnostic" design means that any number of Southbridge chips can easily be developed into a working product regardless of the Processor or Northbridge in the "core" design.
