GE VMIVME‑7807‑411000 VME64x Single Board Computer

The GE VMIVME‑7807‑411000 is a rugged 6U single‑slot VME64x single‑board computer built around Intel Pentium‑M processor for real‑time embedded computing. It delivers high‑performance processing, abundant onboard I/O and PMC expansion capability, executing complex control algorithms, data acquisition and signal processing for industrial automation and mission‑critical VME‑bus systems.

This passively‑cooled SBC works as either VME system controller or peripheral board, supporting multiple operating systems including VxWorks, Linux and Windows. It integrates watchdog timer and battery‑backed memory for reliable long‑term operation. Original production has been discontinued. It is widely supplied as aftermarket spare parts for legacy VME‑bus automation hardware maintenance and system retrofit projects.
