“Acongatec Highlights at ESC Silicon Valley
Attendees of ESC Silicon Valley 2008 will have the opportunity to see a live demonstration of congatec’s extremely low power consuming COM Express Compact module called conga-CA. It features the brand new Intel Atom processor Z5xx series and the Intel System Controller Hub US15W.
Mobile applications are becoming more and more important within the embedded market. Recognizing this trend, congatec has created a battery management module called the conga-SBM and will have a hands-on display at the show. The conga-SBM module is 19V DC powered and utilizes up to two smart batteries. This solution supports the XTX and COM Express module standards.
The complete product range of ETX, XTX and COM Express modules will also be presented at the Embedded Systems Conference.
In addition one of congatec's technology partners, Real-Time Systems, will demonstrate how to utilize multi-core architectures in today’s industry environments. This display will show how the real time hypervisior is able to operate multiple operating systems on a single COM Express or XTX module.
