iPac 9302 Manual

EMAC has created the iPac-9302, an inexpensive, feature packed embedded Single Board Computer (SBC) based on the Cirrus EP9302 processor. This ARM9 based board has features, similar to our other Microcontrollers, A/D, PWM, Digital I/O, Serial, USB, and Ethernet. The iPac-9302 is a web enabled microcontroller device offering the ability to run an embedded server to display it’s current monitored or logged data. This web connection can be via standard wired 802.3u 10/100 BaseT Fast Ethernet or 802.11 wireless wifi networking with the proper linux modules and adapters. This Microcontroller has all connectors brought out as headers on a board that is same footprint of a standard PC/104 module at 3.77" x 3.54". While slightly larger than our SoM Microcontroller offerings, this Industrial Strength SBC is perfectly suited for just about any Embedded Data Acquisition and Control application.

Also available is an optional Screw Terminal board for the iPac (shown above) that is stackable, providing numerous I/O points with screw termination, in a very small package. Two Screw Terminal boards are required to accommodate all of the iPac I/O.

The resident flash on the iPac can be programmed via it's serial bootloader firmware over the RS232 com port or via it's JTAG port. Software can be written with Microsoft's .NET Micro Framework, Windows CE 6.0 or Linux (Open Embedded).

EMAC Inc. is working in conjunction with SJJ micro in order to provide a .NET Micro Framework Port for the iPac 9302. .NET Micro Framework (NMF) is a New platform developed by Microsoft to simplify Embedded Application design. NMF is fully integrated into Microsoft Visual Studio allowing the user to develop with familiar tools even when debugging code that is running on the target device. The .Net Micro Framework provides a managed code environment that brings a fantastic degree of efficiency and reliability to the realm of embedded software development. For more information on .NET Micro Framework go to: http://www.microsoft.com/netmf. To order a .NET Micro Framework Development Kit for the iPac 9302 go to: http://www.sjjmicro.com/NDK.html.

On the Linux side EMAC provides a Free Eclipse IDE that is pre-integrated to provide everything the user needs for developing iPac 9302 applications. All the compiling, converting debugging, and downloading inherent to iPac 9302 development can be done from one easy to use high level interface. The distribution provides an SDK for the EMAC iPac 9302 which contains source examples for the Ethernet, USB, Digital I/O ports, A/D, PWM, SPI, SD/MMC.

The EMAC Eclipse IDE is a powerful, yet flexible Integrated Development Environment for the iPac 9302 and even features SVN version control support. For more information of EMAC's Eclipse based Development Environment click here.

The iPac 9302 can use most of the EMAC's standard Linux Modules including the Modbus module. For a listing of these module see our Embedded Linux Operating Systems Page.
