ADLINK Technology Introduces Rugged System based on High Efficiency Intel Atom Processor
ADLINK Technology announced availability of a high-reliability Intel® Atom™-based rugged system. The Ampro by ADLINK™ RuffSystem™ 735 integrates a high-efficiency processor, RAM, graphics, networking, serial I/O, and PC/104-Plus expansion into an Extreme Rugged™ enclosure, capable of operating in extreme temperatures at full CPU speed.
The Designed from the ground up for use in harsh environments, the RuffSystem™ 735 integrates Extreme Rugged™ boards in a complete turnkey general purpose computer system, simplifying the system integration process and improving time-to-market.
The RuffSystem™ 735 features a 1.6GHz Intel® Atom™ processor N270, up to 2GB of DDR2 RAM, and Intel® GMA 950 graphics core supporting display resolutions of up to 2048x1536 at 75Hz. A broad range of I/O includes one Gigabit and one Fast Ethernet port (dual GbE in Q3), four USB 2.0 ports, stereo audio, 4 serial ports (2 supporting RS232/422/485), and parallel port. Storage is provided by an internal conventional or solid state drive (SSD) via SATA interface and a CompactFlash® socket. The system also provides flexible expansion with PCI Express® Mini Card slot and PC/104-Plus interface.
The Ampro by ADLINK™ MilSystem™ 735 (will be available in Q2, 2010) provides the same level of ruggedness as the RuffSystem™ 735, but uses MIL-STD-D38999 connectors in place of the standard PC connectors found on the RuffSystem™. Both systems are fanless, designed to meet MIL-STD-810 shock & vibration, and operate at full speed in an extended operating temperature range of -40°C to 75°C.
The RuffSystem™ and MilSystem™ 735 are available at competitive prices with Ubuntu Linux 8.04 LTS or Windows® XP Professional preinstalled. The systems also support a full range of additional embedded and desktop operating systems, including VxWorks.
