IMPULSE has announced the EPIC single board computer from AAEON Technology that offers the option of wide temperature support – the EPIC-5537. Operating temperature support of -20°C to +70°C is available on the EPIC-5537W1 version which mirrors the standard version on I/O. This is the first EPIC board with a wide temperature design in mind which not only satisfies the increasing embedded market demands for robust environments, but also completes the AAEON wide temperature board product line.

“The EPIC-5537 deploys the onboard AMD Geode LX800 processor and incorporates the CS5536 chipset along with 256MB of onboard DDR memory at 333MHz (with the option to increase its RAM to 512MB memory). The Intel 82551ER Ethernet chipset is utilized for the standard 0°C to 60°C board offering or the Intel 82551IT is used for the wide temperature EPIC-5537W1 version. Both boards support two 10/100Base-TX Ethernet connections to provide faster network communications. More stringent applications require onboard CPU support and wide range operating temperature as found on the EPIC-5537W1”, said Tony Huang, Product Manager of AAEON’s Embedded Computing Division.

The EPIC-5537 supports CRT/LCD simultaneous/dual view displays. The display controller deploys AMD LX series + TI SN75LVDS83 with shared system memory up to 254MB. The LCD interface features up to 24-bit single channel LVDS/TTL LCD for high quality display functionality. The EPIC-5537 also offers flexible I/O interfaces including two COM ports, four USB2.0 ports, a Keyboard/Mouse port and 8-bit programmable digital I/O. The onboard audio function uses the AC97 2.0 Codec for 2 channel audio and features Line-in, Line-out, Mic-in and CD-in essential for multimedia or other interactive applications.
