Ultra-slim panel computer for medical applications

The MPC152-832 is a new 15-inch, fanless, ultra-slim medical panel computer which has been announced by Axiomtek. Powered by the low-power Intel Atom processor D2550 1.86GHz with the Intel NM10 Express chipset, the MPC152-832 medical panel PC has UL60601-1/EN60601-1 medical certifications and is therefore ideal for nursing cart, point-of-care terminal, or infotainment terminal use in healthcare environments.

Equipped with a 15-inch XGA TFT LCD display with high brightness LED backlight (400nits), the new medical panel PC features an IPX1 compliant chassis and an IP65/NEMA 4 rated spill- and dust-resistant front panel. This ensures high reliability and easy cleaning, critical factors for medical applications.

Designed with user’s convenience in mind, the highly integrated, easy-to-use, and easy-to-install medical computing platform offers a variety of I/O connections including RS-232/422/485, isolated RS-232, USB, DisplayPort, PCI Express Mini Card, and Gigabit Ethernet for easy connectivity with existing or new hospital systems.

Virgil Hsu, Axiomtek’s product manager, comments: “The MPC152-832 is powered by dual core Intel Atom processor D2550 that enables quiet, fanless operation, therefore, the patients are not disturbed when it is operated next to them. This ultra-slim medical panel PC is easy to install on medical carts and integrate with medical devices for use as an information terminal. The user-friendly touch screen design makes medical data entry less cumbersome. We also include a convenient, enable/disable single-touch button for quick cleaning and other shut down purposes.”

2.14″ thick and weighing only 7.05 lb, the MPC152-832 can be panel mounted, wall mounted, VESA mounted, or desk mounted for flexible installation. Vibration resistant up to 2Grms (with CompactFlash), the 15-inch medical PC allows for stable and reliable operations. A PCI Express Mini Card slot and a built-in WLAN antenna enables the panel PC to provide wireless network connectivity. Plugging in the WLAN Mini Card gives users instant access to wireless LAN/GPRS/GSM/3G, this wireless network connection allows for real-time patient data checking and processing in the healthcare environment. Suitable for all types of medical environments, the panel’s flexible design provides two types of power inputs, a medical grade AC power adapter with screw type connector and a DC power input (12/24VDC) with terminal block connector.

Equipped with a built-in fuse for overcurrent protection, the MPC152-832 supports one DDR3 SO-DIMM slot with up to 4GB memory and features one 2.5″ SATA HDD and CompactFlash socket. Supporting the most popular operating systems including Windows 7 Embedded Standard and Windows 7 (32-bit), the ultra-slim PC features rich I/O connections including two COM ports (One isolated RS-232 & one RS-232/422/485), four USB 2.0 ports, two Gigabit LANs, audio (Line-out), and DisplayPort.
