EBX SBC Features Atom E3800 Processor PC/104-Plus Expansion WinSystems has introduced a new line of Intel Atom E3800-based single board computers designed to operate in temperatures ranging from -40 to +85 degrees C. The EBC-C413 models include onboard USB, Gbit Ethernet controllers, serial ports, GPIO and additional I/O expansion through MiniPCIe and PC/104-Plus. These in-stock, off-the-shelf industrial SBCs are optimally designed for rugged embedded applications that require extended temperature operation, long-term availability, and a wide variety of I/O expansion options to meet unique project requirements. The EBC-C413 series features the Intel Atom E3800 family of processors in an industrystandard EBX form factor. The low-profile thermal heat plate design reduces its height by 47 percent – from 1.15 inches to 0.6 inches compared to its predecessor EBC-C384. The SBC EBC-C413 underpins quad-core, dual-core or single-core processors and up to 8 Gbytes of DDR3L SDRAM. The Intel Generation 7-based graphics engine supports up to two simultaneously active displays with interfaces available for analog VGA, Mini DisplayPort and LVDS connections. For networking and communications, the EBC-C413 includes two Intel I210 Ethernet controllers with 10/100/1000 Mb/s multispeed operation. It provides eight USB 2.0 channels and four serial ports to support RS-232/422/485 interface levels. The series also includes two MiniPCIe connectors and PC/104-Plus, enabling further high-speed I/O expansion and/or an mSATA SSD drive. Both of the MiniPCIe connectors accommodate full-length cards with screw-down mounting for improved shock and vibration durability. One MiniPCIe connector also supports bootable mSATA solid-state disks. WinSystems Arlington, TX (817) 274-7553 www.winsystems.com
AdvancedTCA Shelf Provides Up to 2300 CFM of Airflow Pixus Technologies offers its 15U AdvancedTCA Chassis with new blowers that are more powerful and efficient. The Pixus horizontalmount AdvancedTCA chassis employ individually hot-swappable reverse impeller blowers for cooling above 400W/slot. The new RiCool IV versions provide up to 576 Cubic Feet per Minute (CFM) for each fan and 3.6 inch H20 of static pressure at max speed. The combined four blowers provide massive cooling and the unit continues to operate at full load in a 55 degree C environment for 96 hours with one fan removed. The PXS1510/40 15U AdvancedTCA Enclosure from Pixus features full redundancy of all Field Replaceable Units (FRUs). The 14-slot backplane configurations include 10GbE and 40GbE available now.
