Description
Product overview
The cPCI-3840 0190-28651 is a CompactPCI computing module intended for embedded systems that require a computer-class processor within a modular industrial chassis. The ADLINK cPCI-3840 platform combines CPU processing, memory, network connectivity, and storage interfaces on a 3U CompactPCI board. In semiconductor manufacturing equipment, this type of module can serve as a host computer for equipment-control software, data handling, and communication with other system components. The exact role of part number 0190-28651 depends on the equipment configuration in which it was installed.
The base cPCI-3840 platform supports Intel Pentium M and selected Celeron M processor options, with memory configurations up to 2 GB. Its documented interfaces include dual Gigabit Ethernet, USB 2.0, serial communication, display output, and multiple storage options. Not every configuration necessarily includes the same processor, RAM, hard drive, or rear-transition hardware, so these family-level features should not be interpreted as a guaranteed bill of materials for every 0190-28651 unit.
When replacing the cPCI-3840 0190-28651, prioritize matching the original equipment configuration rather than selecting a board by form factor alone. Check the CPU variant, installed memory, storage device, BIOS settings, rear I/O arrangement, operating system, and application software. For legacy semiconductor equipment, a replacement that powers on but lacks the original boot image or application configuration may not restore the machine to service. Request the actual board label and configuration details before committing to a purchase.
Product introduction
The cPCI-3840 0190-28651 is a legacy CompactPCI computer module associated with industrial equipment applications. It provides a host computing platform for software and connected hardware within a compatible 3U CompactPCI chassis.
For replacement work, verify the complete part number and installed configuration, including storage and software. A mechanically compatible CPU board is not necessarily a functional replacement for the original equipment computer.

Frequently asked questions
Q1: What is the cPCI-3840 0190-28651 used for?
It is a CompactPCI single-board computer associated with industrial equipment, including an Applied Materials catalog configuration. Its exact machine-level function depends on the host equipment and installed software.
Q2: Is 0190-28651 an Alstom-manufactured board?
Some resellers categorize the part under Alstom, but the underlying cPCI-3840 platform is documented by ADLINK. The precise OEM configuration and equipment association should be verified from the original label and machine documentation.
Q3: Does every cPCI-3840 have a 1.6 GHz Pentium M processor?
No. The platform supports multiple processor configurations. Confirm the installed CPU and other options for the specific 0190-28651 board.
Q4: Can it be replaced with another 3U CompactPCI computer?
Not without an engineering compatibility check. Bus compatibility alone does not guarantee correct rear I/O, BIOS behavior, storage access, driver support, or application operation.
Q5: What testing should a supplier provide?
Request visual inspection, host-chassis recognition, BIOS/POST results, memory checks, storage-device detection, Ethernet checks, and a boot test where the original software image is available. The supplier should clearly state which tests were actually performed.
Q6: What should be checked before purchase?
Confirm the full part number, CPU and memory configuration, storage device, rear-transition hardware, BIOS revision, operating system, and availability of the required application image.
Procurement recommendation
For the cPCI-3840 0190-28651, the main risk is configuration mismatch. Before ordering, request:
- A clear photograph of the board label and part number.
- Confirmation of the CPU, RAM, and storage configuration.
- Details of the BIOS and operating-system image, where available.
- Confirmation of included rear-transition hardware and accessories.
- Test results covering board startup and the interfaces required by the target equipment.
For a legacy semiconductor tool, preserving the original computer configuration can be just as important as matching the CPU board. Verify both the hardware and software requirements before approving the replacement.
