Hammond Electronics has today introduced a new series of design-specific moulded enclosures supporting the new types of credit card sized, low cost bare board computers, which, typically running Linux, provide basic functionality across a wide range of applications. While broadly similar in size and shape, each enclosure features differences in the positioning of I/O, power and expansion ports.

Derived from Hammond Electronics' popular 1593 family, the new enclosures support the Arduino Uno, Arduino Due, Arduino Mega, Beaglebone, Beaglebone Black and the Freescale Freedom single board computers. The new format of development boards are aimed at both professional developers and hobbyists.

Available in translucent blue, grey or black, each version is configured for the particular design of board, with machined slots, cutouts and apertures in the cover and end panels. In some variants, the covers are moulded with the required access points. There are enclosures in development for the Arduino Tre and Intel Galileo boards which will be available soon. New versions are regularly being added to support additional development board designs as they are introduced into this fast-moving environment.

Offering good protection for the boards themselves, the enclosures provide dedicated access positions for external connectivity such as Ethernet, USB and serial ports.
