New SBC From Micro/sys
Micro/sys has announced a new single-board computer (SBC) in the 4.5 x 6.5 inch EPIC (Embedded Platform for Industrial Computing) footprint. Based on a high-performance 486/586 core, the SBC4495 boots Windows CE as well as other popular PC and embedded operating systems.
The SBC includes eight channels of 14-bit A/D (with simultaneous reads) and eight channels of 14-bit D/A, to provide a highly accurate temperature-compensated data acquisition system, according to the Micro/sys. In addition, the on-board GPS provides timing that can synchronize the data acquisition of geographically distant systems to within 190ns, along with providing location and altitude.
The SBC4495 is based on an STPC Atlas processor with speeds up to 133MHz, on-chip cache, 64-bit DRAM access, hardware floating point, and PC/AT-compatible interrupts, timers, and DMA controllers. It also includes four serial ports, 24 bits of digital I/O, a SuperVGA display controller, and keyboard/mouse ports. The SuperVGA includes hardware acceleration, and drives CRT monitors and LVDS TFT flat panel displays with resolutions of up to 1280 x 1024.
