Ampro is offering a rugged ETX module with full notebook-style ACPI 2.0 power management. The ETX 802 computer-on-module (COM) enables a new class of battery-powered portable embedded computers for commercial, industrial and military applications, it claims.
Featuring performance up to 1,4 GHz with operation to 85°C, the module enables OEMs and integrators to create handheld and vehicle-mounted computers with long production life, small size, vibration resistance, and long battery life.
"Ampro brings its proven expertise with rugged modular electronics to a market that demands reliability and durability beyond what 0 to 60°C desktop-class modules can achieve with fans and heat pipes," said Joanne Mumola Williams, president and CEO of Ampro. "The ETX 802 module sets a new standard in the ETX market by providing both ruggedness and ACPI S3 suspend-to-RAM technology for very fast wake-up from a low power state. Next-generation embedded applications cannot tolerate the longer resume-from disk times that competing modules offer."
The ETX 802 COM offers a rich feature set, including the Intel 855GME chipset, ECC or non-ECC DDR RAM to 1 GB, (4) USB 2.0 ports, dual EIDE interfaces, 10/100 Ethernet, PCI expansion, and RoHS compliance. ETX modules plug into a baseboard to allow customisation of board size and shape, I/O circuitry, connector locations, and easy migration to higher performance modules in the future. While other recently introduced modules do not support legacy bus and peripheral support, the ETX 802 embraces legacy with ISA bus expansion, two serial ports, PS/2 keyboard and mouse, parallel port and floppy-over-parallel support.
The ETX 802 is said to be exceptionally resistant to shock and vibration and is unique in the industry with a 3-year warranty that covers -40 to +85°C operation. Optional conformal coating protects against moisture and corrosion.
