Embedded box PC for industrial applications
8 February 2006
Computer/Embedded Technology
Digital-Logic has extended its extremely successful Microspace-PC product line with an embedded controller based on the proven EPIC standard. The Microspace-PC Value 855 (MPCV855) has no cooling fan; instead it relies solely on passive cooling techniques. As such it is an ideal solution for reliable, cost-effective long-term operation in industrial and commercial applications.
The MPCV855 computer is based on the i855GME chipset and uses a 600 or 800 MHz Intel processor. The device is equipped with 256 MB of main memory, but this can be expanded to 512 MB or 1 GB DDR RAM. The field of applications is almost unlimited due to state-of-art features - such as four USB V2.0 ports, eight digital I/Os, two RS232C interfaces, dual LAN with a 100/10Base-T-Ethernet and a 1 Gbit Ethernet port - and due to the fact that the customer has the option of using the two PC/104-Plus sockets and a MiniPCI socket to integrate individual features.
For display, this embedded computer uses the 'extreme graphic' video controller that is integrated into the i855GME chipset and offers a video memory of up to 64 MB. The controller has two separate video outputs (standard VGA and 18-bit LVDS). A 2,5"-hard disk with a storage capacity of up to 100 GB is available as mass storage. It includes a CompactFlash slot type I/II.
The MPCV855 weighs 3 kg and measures 290 x 145 x 79 mm (W x L x H). Operating from 9 V d.c. to 30 V d.c. it can therefore be used in switch cabinets as well as in battery systems. It operates within 0 to +50°C.
