The EPIC-BDU7, harnesses the full potential of the processors’ Ultra Low Power (ULP) technology to bring its required wattage down to a mere 15W, allowing a fanless configuration. Graphics capabilities are enhanced with the support for the latest Ultra HD (4k resolution) videos and triple simultaneous display.
The EPIC-BDU7 comes equipped with Intel®’s 5th Generation Core™ Processors, delivering high performance at a very low power consumption of 15W. Intel®’s latest processors bring enhanced graphics processing capabilities with support for 4K resolution video and media content while offering 3-independent displays from the board’s LVDS, VGA, DisplayPort, and eDP options. Support for the latest operating systems and today’s high speed I/O devices are available in this new generation of product.
The VDX3-6755 PC/104 family of low-power x86 embedded controller is designed to meet PC/104 specification with backward compatibility to provide migration path for projects facing end-of-life chall
The SBC-8106 form factor is ideal for compact PC applications. Due to its small size (100 x 72mm) it’s easily integrated into virtually any system with severe space constraints and/or thermal restrictions, where other form factor simply will not fi t the requirements. The compact size of SBC-8106 gives the board a unique advantage over traditional PC based motherboards like the mITX or Flex to become the preferred choice in any compact applications. The industry target for smaller size and lower power plays a bigger role these days. The pITX form factor is becoming more popular due to its increasing performance and substantial range of connectivity options, while still maintaining its compact size and low power consumption. Not only are SBC-8106 compact in size, but it also offers leading edge CPU and GPU performance with the next generation Intel® Atom™ System on Chip (SoC) and a large variety of high-speed interfaces.
Android
Android is a Linux-based operating system for mobile devices such as smartphones and tablet computers. It is developed by the Open Handset Alliance led by Google. Google purchased the initial developer of the software, Android Inc., in 2005. According to the Android project "The goal of the Android Open Source Project is to create a successful real-world product that improves the mobile experience for end users".
Android consists of a kernel based on the Linux kernel, with middleware, libraries and APIs written in C and application software running on an application framework which includes Java-compatible libraries based on Apache Harmony. Android uses a virtual machine with just-in-time compilation to run dex-code (Dalvik Executable), which is usually translated from Java bytecode. The main hardware platform for Android is the ARM architecture, however recently there has been support added for x86 from the Android x86project.
Anyone considering using Android should realize that using Android in Embedded Applications adds a layer of complexity and inefficiency that may not make sense for many User Interfaces in the Embedded arena. However, if the unit is an battery backed Industrial Tablet or similar mobile device Android may be a good fit. Application programming is typically done in Java although C can be used with some difficulty.
EMAC can provide Android (Gingerbread, Ice Cream Sandwich or Jellybean) for several of our products. Call for further details.
