Embedded motherboards based on Intel 6th gen Core and Celeron processors
Avalue Technology has unveiled EMX-SKLGP, based on Intel 6th Generation Core and Celeron Processors. EMX-SKLGP, a Thin Mini ITX board with 6th Gen Intel Core i3/i5/i7 and Celeron SoC Processor, the range covers a full spectrum of the Intel processor from Core i7 to Celeron, which is up to 10% faster and offering graphics that are up to 34% faster than the previous generation.
Embedded system suits outdoor critical applications
Axiomtek has unveiled the eBOX800-511-FL, a fanless embedded system with IP67-rated housing and M12 connectors for mission-critical environments. This rugged embedded system is powered by the onboard 7th generation Intel Core i5-7300U and Celeron 3965U (formally codename: Kaby Lake) and comes with one 204-pin DDR4-2133 SO-DIMM slot with system memory up to 16GB.
PCB terminal blocks: styles and pitches optimise board design
Hylec-APL has announced the extended TLM Series of screwless PCB terminal blocks. Needing no special tools, the TLM Series offers fast connection for wire sizes between 0.05mm² and 8.37mm² and are shock-resistant. Devices within the TLM Series are available in multiple styles and pitches to offer designers optimum flexibility in design and the possibility of saving valuable PCB real estate.
Hardware modules aid IoT-focused prototyping, coding
Adding more ways to prototype and expand the functionality of popular single-board computers like Raspberry Pi and BeagleBone, RS Components is now seling XinaBox xChip hardware modules. The xChip concept makes a wide variety of electronic functions available in a standardised modular format that can be assembled, in any order, to build electronic devices quickly and easily.
Type six module aimed at performance demanding applications
It has been announced that ADLINK is introducing its latest COM Express Type six modules, thus widening its offerings to fulfil the needs of even the most performance demanding applications.
Embedded peripherals start to make their mark
The idea of embedded peripherals (EP) is not new and in the past it has usually been the motherboard manufacturers, and to lesser extent distributors, that stock a limited product range of Input/Output (I/O) products to expand board capability. For a board manufacturer to include every I/O port is not economically viable, so purchasing teams are now buying basic boards and adding the relevant peripherals to achieve the solution required, often wi...
Smooth implementation of hard real time
It has been announced that congatec has teamed up with OSADL, Open Source Automation Development Lab, to optimise the board support for real time Linux and showcase it in the OSADL test racks.
COMs balance space constraints and CPU requirements
Express-BD7 Computer-on-Modules (COMs) from ADLINK Technology, a Premier Member of The Intel Internet of Things Solutions Alliance are in stock at Mouser Electronics. The modules help engineers build space-constrained systems in industrial automation and data communication — such as virtualisation, edge computing or other numerical applications — that require high-density CPU cores balanced by reasonable power consumption.
