Scalable Processors An onboard Trusted Platform Module (TPM) ensures the integrity of network processing for critical applications. A choice of three TPM modules is provided: TPM Module 1.2 with LPC, TPM Module 2.0 with LPC or TPM Module with eSPI. The unit's high performance processors and memory capacity of 3 Terabytes makes the unit appropriate for high-end, latency-sensitive operations, including transaction processing, scientific/real-time analytics, IoT cloud computing, virtualization, data mining, data warehousing and other critical applications.
Building Virtualized, Redundant Embedded
Real-Time Fog Servers The Internet of Things and increasing network bandwidths are significantly changing the way applications are designed. Edge and fog computing must provide extremely powerful server technology at the edge of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) on a small footprint. Time to create a suitable design using off-the-shelf blocks to build a virtualized, redundant embedded real-time fog server. COM Express Type 7 server-on-modules enable space-saving servers with highly individual interfaces to be used outside server racks.

The serial lines have been optically isolated, which is essential for use in automotive or industrial applications as well as in mobile environments, for example, to protect the control system from external disturbances such as high voltage pulses. All components of the M77N are firmly soldered against shock and vibration, and are approved for a temperature range of -40°C to +85°C.
Win a Free Subscription to Circuit Cellar Magazine! 
This week's newsletter raffle is for a 1-year free subscription to Circuit Cellar! Drawing ends at midnight this coming Friday. Circuit Cellar is the premier media resource for professional engineers, academic technologists, and other electronics technology decision-makers worldwide involved in the design and development of embedded processor- and microcontroller-based systems across a broad range of applications.
And congratulations to last week's raffle winner, Jason B., who won the book Advanced Control Robotics. Thanks to all who participated! |

ADLINK Technology has continued its commitment and support to customers who have designs based on the ETX computer-on-module (COM) form factor. ETX is one of the earliest COM form factors. After more than two decades, its popularity is only second to COM Express when it comes to installed user base. With the recent discontinuation of the hugely popular Intel Atom processor N270, many customers are searching for an ETX module replacement to keep their systems up and running. They are in need of an ETX drop-in solution at both hardware and software levels (Intel-to-Intel) with equivalent or improved performance and a better thermal envelope to simplify the transition. The problem is that customer's current module suppliers may not have ETX on their road maps anymore. Since ETX is no longer a viable choice for completely new designs, many earlier manufacturers have moved on and dropped out of the ETX market. ADLINK's solution is the ETX-BT, based on the Intel Atom processor E3800 series SoC (formerly Bay Trail). This Intel Atom product family is possibly the last processor that can fully support all ETX legacy interfaces: PATA IDE, ISA bus, PCI bus, serial/parallel ports, VGA and LVDS (Hsync/Vsync mode). The ETX-BT is available in both commercial (0°C to 60°C) and Extreme Rugged (-40°C to +85°C) versions and has a life cycle of 10 years, keeping in line with Intel's warranted life cycle for the Intel Atom processor E3800 series of 15 years from release.
Versalogic has announced the Zebra, its latest in their new line of production-ready ARM-based embedded computers. Featuring models with either the NXP i.MX6 Solo (single core), or the i.MX6 DualLite (dual core) processors, the Zebra is rated for full industrial temperature operation (-40°C to +85°C). The compact 95 mm x 95 mm computer board typically consumes less than 3 W of power when operating. Unlike many ARM-based "modules," Versalogic's new ARM-based products are complete board-level computers. They do not require additional carrier cards, companion boards, connector break-out boards or other add-ons to function. For ease of mounting and future upgrades, the Zebra product conforms to the size and mounting points of the industry standard COM Compact format. Unlike proprietary-format ARM products, Versalogic ARM boards provide a standardized mounting pattern for simplified upgrading in the future. The Zebra embedded computer board is ready for off-the-shelf deployment into demanding industrial, defense and aerospace applications requiring rugged, long-life, power efficient, industrial temperature rated (-40°C to +85°C) solutions. |
