The energy-efficient design of the system is powered by an Intel Atom SoC E3845 quad-core processor and supports 204-pin DDR3L SO-DIMM system memory with up to 8GB DDR3L 1333MHz SDRAM capacity. Accommodating a wide DC power range (9~36V), it offers reliable, fanless operation for industrial temperatures between -40 and +75 degC.
“The VMS-BYT supports LVDS output; our speciality is matching boards and systems to LVDS panels,” says Brendan O’Reilly, Account Manager at Display Solutions. “A system integrator looking for a particular in-vehicle display solution, whether it is touch screen or not, can utilise our services to achieve a total display system for their desired application.”
Onboard features of the system include a rich set of I/Os, including 1x VGA, 1x LVDS, 1x DC-out (12V/4A), 1x 8-bit GPIO, 1x Cfast, 1x 2.5-inch drive bay, 2x Line-out and Mic-in, 2x LAN, 3x USB, 2x COM and 5x antenna mountings.
The system also offers dual Gigabit Ethernet with two Intel I211ATs and supports dual displays with resolutions of 2560×1080 pixels at 60Hz (VGA) and 1600×1200 pixels at 60Hz (LVDS). An audio interface is also provided with a Realtek ALC892, supporting 5.1 channels.
The VMS-BYT is compatible with Windows 7 and 8 as well as Linux, carries the CE mark according to FCC Class B. An optional CAN module is available for SAEJ1939 or J1708 support.
