ADLINK puster nyt liv i PC/104 markedet

ADLINK Technology introducerer CoreModule 430, der er nyt PC/104 baseret board (in english).

ADLINK Technology Inc. continues its commitment to the PC/104 market, and the  company has just released  the Ampro by ADLINKTM CoreModule 430 single board computer (SBC). 

The CoreModule 430 proves that the venerable PC/104 ISA bus is still viable for years to come. Showcasing the level of integration of the DM&P Vortex86 processor, the CoreModule 430 combines a wealth of legacy I/O interfaces with on-board video, DDR2 RAM, USB 2.0 and 10/100 Ethernet on a single 90x96mm module.

This announcement gives the broad installed base of 386 and 486 PC/104 users a path forward for continued production of existing medical, industrial control, and avionics systems.

- ADLINK continues to support users of the PC/104 standard that Ampro invented in 1992,” said Jeff Munch, CTO, ADLINK.
- CoreModule 430 drops directly into applications that use EOL CPUs, allowing system OEMs to continue to leverage their investments in enclosures, cables, software and
certifications. For new designs, CoreModule® 430 also directly supports the vast ecosystem of proven PC/104 I/O cards.

CoreModule 430 offers a choice of 300MHz or 800MHz Vortex86 processors for Extreme Rugged environments including temperatures from -40°C to +85°C, vibration up to 15Grms, and shock up to 50Grms.

CoreModule 430 offers 2D  graphics with a TTL flat panel interface along with legacy CRT. It also touts a full 16-bit ISA bus and an Intel® Ethernet controller for
consistent performance over temperature.

On-board I/O includes  UDMA IDE port, Compact Flash socket,  serial ports, two with RS-422/485 capability, (2) USB 2.0 ports, Intel 10/100 Ethernet, parallel port, PS/2 keyboard/mouse, and general-purpose digital I/O pins. In addition, CoreModule 430 brings out SPI and LPC Bus interfaces to offer even more flexibility for attaching custom I/O.
