Extra time: extended support for processors modules
congatec has extended support for the AMD Geode processor on ETX and XTX modules until 2021. This makes a total of 16 years, which is unique in the embedded processor market, where processors are usually available for seven years. We talked to Christian Eder about the importance of this extension.
Embedded computing platform enables robot to play piano
congatec has introduced a virtualised embedded computing platform for easy PLC and UI hardware consolidation. The demo platform with a hexapod robot playing a piano is based on a standard embedded hardware platform from congatec; hypervisor technology from Real-Time Systems (RTS); IEC 61131-3 compliant CODESYS SoftPLC running on real time VxWorks OS; and a virtualised GUI based on Microsoft Windows 10.
Computer-on-Modules come with 8th Gen Intel Xeon and Intel Core
congatec hasintroduced its conga-TS370 COM Express Type 6 Computer-on-Modules in parallel with the launch of the 8th Generation Embedded Intel Xeon and Intel Core processors (codename Coffee Lake H). They propel the 35-45W TDP class of COM Express Type 6 modules to a new ‘six-pack’ level of high-end embedded computing, offering for the first time up to 6 cores, 12 threads and a turbo boost of up to 4.4 GHzand drive up to three indepen...
congatec introduces cost-efficient 10GbE edge server designs
congatec hasintroduced a deployment ready design study of a micro server carrier board with 10GbE support. The modular server board in the 5x5 inch Mini-STX form factor (140mm x 147mm) offers high scalability across all suitable embedded server processor sockets thanks to its COM Express Type 7 slot. This enables 10GbE edge node performance upgrades at lowest cost, as nearly all investments in the real-time system design of 10GbE edge nodes can b...
