- Creating
standalone signaling gateways with MicroTCA and AMC
MicroTCA and AMC modules enable creation of standalone signaling
gateways to bridge between IP-based and conventional switchedcircuit
telephony.
by Stuart Jamieson and Gareth Smith, Emerson
Network Power
(Boards & Solutions,
November 2007)
- Suddenly
signal: AdvancedMC carries signaling gateway
The authors make the case that signaling gateway design needs
are well met by implementation on a single AdvancedMC module,
an approach that can speed time to market.

- Thermal
Control in MicroTCA
MicroTCA uses hardware and software developed for full-size AdvancedTCA
systems, but scales to much smaller form factors. Stuart outlines here the thermal
design considerations that stem from MicroTCA’s increased energy density.

- Keeping
Your Cool with MicroTCA
The increase in energy density of MicroTCA’s smaller form-factors
makes thermal design an important consideration in systems based
on this architecture.

- MicroTCA:
Flexibility and modularity
The reuse of ATCA elements along with the size and performance
scalability of MicroTCA now extends the range of the Advanced
Telecommunications Computing Architecture (ATCA) to cover nearly
all telecommunications applications.

- Micro
Means Modularity In Telecom
In the summer of 2006, the PCI Industrial Computer Manufacturers
Group (PICMG) approved the MicroTCA telecommunications architecture
a small form-factor platform addressing tight size and cost
constraints. MicroTCA takes advantage of mezzanine cards developed
for the AdvancedTCA platform by eliminating carrier cards.

Developers Guide to Open Telecom Platforms: CompactPCI, ATCA,
AdvancedMC and MicroTCA
Open architecture systems reduce
costs and time to market by
making it much easier for equipment
providers to outsource a large
portion of their system design
and to utilize cost-effective,
best-of-breed off-the-shelf
hardware and software components.

- MicroTCA-compact
architecture offers design flexibility
MicroTCA is the latest of the open-architecture platforms developed
for telecom and network system design.

- ATCA
Offers Design Options for Telecom
Designers choosing ATCA must
carefully consider their mix
of options. These include the
proper serial interfaces and
protocols for their applications,
the effect of design decisions
on power and cooling, and the
use of off-the-shelf or custom-build
AMC cards.

- MicroTCA – compact
architecture offers design flexibility
ATCA and AMC offer a level of open standards, high-level integration
and flexibility that give telecom equipment manufacturers a higher
level at which to start adding value.
