The CPU board is designed around the PowerPC processor MPC860T from Freescale semiconductor

The MPC860 Quad Integrated Communications Controller (PowerQUICC™) is a versatile one-chip integrated microprocessor and peripheral combination that can be used in a variety of controller applications. It particularly excels in both Communications and networking systems. The MPC860 is a derivative of Motorola’s MC68360 Quad Integrated Communications Controller (QUICC™), referred to here as the QUICC, which implements the PowerPC architecture. The CPU on the MPC860 is a 32-bit MPC8xx core implementation that incorporates memory management units (MMUs) and instruction and data caches and that implements the PowePC instruction set. The memory controller has been enhanced, enabling the MPC860 to support any type of memory, including high-performance memories and new types of DRAMs.

The MPC860T processor is mainly used in the RADAR Systems (Bharani and Rohini Radar)

MPC860T processor integrates the enhanced PowerPC core and advanced features such as SDRAM with 1GB, 128 MB of NOR flash, 8GB of NAND Flash, up to 1 GHz of clock speed, up to 16MB of NVRAM. The system provides the required interfaces to interface custom modules in the system. The system provides communication bus interfaces like asynchronous communication port on RS232 and two-gigabit Ethernet ports

Field Programmable Gate Array used is Defense-grade Virtex®-7Q device that offers the largest portfolio of high-performance, high reliability for systems in markets such as Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR), Electronic Warfare (EW), Commercial & Military Avionics

On-board it has 512Kx32 FLASH MODULE, In-System Programmable CPLD which has 36 macrocells with 800 usable gates, High performance 32K x 8 Static RAM, 16k Nonvolatile SRAM, HIGH-SPEED 64K x 8 DUAL-PORT STATIC RAM, In-System Programmable Configuration PROM
