As low-cost entry-level model, the computer is ideal for a wide range of applications in the process plant engineering, power engineering, transport and logistics, as well as display control and gateway areas.
The compact EN-A3 embedded system integrates as standard a mini-ITX board with the quad-core Intel® Atom™ E3845 processor with 1.91 GHz clock and integrated 2 MB cache. On request, the Box IPC can be equipped with the dual-core Intel® Atom™ E3826 processor (1.46 GHz) or the single-core E3814 (1.46 GHz). The processor integrates the high-performance Intel® HD graphics. The fast DDR3 RAM main memory can be expanded to a maximum capacity of 8 GB.
For data storage, the EN-A3 industrial computer includes a 30 GB mSATA SSD (Solid State Drive) or larger that does not have any moving parts and avoids the need for extensive wiring. Two mini PCI Express™ x1 slots are present internally on the CPU board, where one slot can be chosen as mini PCI Express™ x1 or mSATA. As an option, the system can also be equipped with a 2.5 inch SSD.
Despite its compact construction, the EN-A3 embedded system provides many interfaces: two GigaBit LANs, one USB 3.0 and four USB 2.0, four serial connections (RS232, one of which is RS232/422/485), audio and an internal Serial ATA interface for a SATA II 300 device. The industrial PC is equipped with two graphic outputs that can be configured as VGA, DVI-D or DisplayPort (DP).
On request, the high-quality EN-A3 housing is available in any required color, also with company logo. The scope of supply includes mounting rails and optionally a wall-mounting bracket or a DIN rail-mounting. The Box IPC provides a 12/24 VDC wide-range power input and an external 100 – 240 VAC power pack.
