Circuit Cellar's ongoing mission is to provide important information to help you make smart choices with your engineering projects; from prototype to production. As part of that effort, we're now offering weekly themed newsletter content that focuses on critical areas of system development.
 
Our new, enhanced weekly Circuit Cellar Newsletter will cover these four areas each month: 

Microcontroller Watch |  IoT Technology Focus |  
Embedded Boards | Analog & Power 
 
Your feedback is always welcome. - Jeff Child (jchild@circuitcellar.com)

Embedded Boards         
Embedded boards are critical building blocks around which system developers can build all manor of intelligent systems. The focus here is on both standard and non-standard embedded computer boards.

  
COM Express Card Features Core i7-7600U Processor 

ARBOR Technology has expanded its line of modules with the introduction of a 7th generation Intel Core processor platform (formerly code-named "Kaby Lake-U"), the EmETXe-i90U0, a Type 6 compact module. The single-chip processors feature a low power consumption of just 15 W TDP. Built on Intel's new 14 nm process technology, the 7th generation Intel Core processor is designed to provide excellent graphics and performance.


The new Intel HD Graphics 620 in 7th generation Intel Core processors providea an Ultra HD/4K display and additional codec support. Enhanced security and manageability features help to drive down total cost and risk, protecting data and preventing malware threats. The boards allow the connection of up to three independent display interfaces via HDMI 1.4, LVDS, and embedded DisplayPort (eDP). When using DisplayPort 1.2, the individual displays can be daisy chained to take advantage of simple wiring. Native USB 3.0 support provides fast data transmission with low power consumption. The two SO-DIMM sockets can be equipped with up to 32 GB SO-DIMM DDR4 memory.
 


SBC is Drop-In Replacement for Raspberry Pi 3 Model B
  
A Kickstarter project by the Libre Computer Project, code name Le Potato, is designed as a drop in hardware replacement for the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B and offers faster performance, more memory, lower power, higher I/O throughput, 4K capabilities, open market components, improved media acceleration, removal of vendor locked-in interfaces, and Android 7.1
support. This platform uses the latest technologies and is built upon proven long term available chips.

It is supported by upstream Linux and has a downstream development package based on Linux 4.9 LTS that offers ready-to-go 4K media decoding, 3D acceleration, and more. It can be used to tinker with electronics, teach programming, build media centers, create digital signage solutions, play retro games, establish bi-directional video, and unlock imaginations. It is available in 1 GB and 2 GB configurations.
 

Win a Free Book: Advanced Control Robotics
!
 
This week's newsletter raffle is the terrific book, Advanced Control Robotics by Hanno
Sander
s. Whether you're a weekend DIYer, a computer science student, or a professional engineer, this book is a great reference tool. Usually $54, this book was written to help roboticists of various skill levels take their designs to the next level with microcontrollers and the know-how to implement them effectively.


And congratulations to last week's raffle winner! Tobias W. won a
2016 archive CD of Circuit Cellar. Thanks to all who participated! 


  
 COM Express Type 10 Mini Board Boasts Wide Temp Range

Axiomtek has announced its latest COM Express Type 10 Mini Module, the CEM311. The CEM311 is scalable and features Intel Celeron processor N3350 or Intel Pentium processor
N4200. Integrated with Intel Gen 9 graphics, and with the support of DX12.0, OCL 2.0 and OGL 4.3, the CEM311 delivers advanced graphics capability, 4K resolutions, and high media performance. The rugged system on module supports a wide operating temperature range from -20°C to +70°C to ensure stable operation in harsh environments. The CEM311 is well suited for graphics-intensive, industrial IoT applications such as industrial control, medical imaging, digital signage, gaming, military, and networking.
