26 June 2013 Computer/Embedded Technology

VIA Technologies has announced the VAB-600 embedded board with very low power consumption and optional 3G connectivity to fuel in-vehicle innovation as well as a broad range of mobile and healthcare applications.

Based on the Pico-ITX form factor, measuring 10 x 7,2 cm, the board combines an 800 MHz ARM Cortex-A9 processor with a built-in 2D/3D graphics engine supporting OpenGL ES 2.0, to deliver a smooth user experience and enhanced multimedia performance.

Rear I/O includes one Mini HDMI port, two Mini-USB 2.0 ports, one 10/100 Ethernet port and a 12–24 V d.c. input jack. Onboard features include 4 GB eMMC Flash memory, 1 GB DDR3 SDRAM, one DVO connector for TTL or LVDS display, two COM ports, SPI, one USB 2.0 connector, one Mini Card slot (supports USB 2.0 connectivity for optional WiFi module VNT9271B6050), support for one SIM card slot, touch screen connector, front pin headers for line-in/out and MIC-in, I²C and GPIO pin header, and one battery charger connector with smart battery function.

Customers can take advantage of starter kits which include a VAB-600 Pico-ITX board, VAB-600-A I/O card, VAB-600-C TTL converter card, 7” touch screen TTL panel, cables and 18 W a.c. adaptor. Board support packages (BSPs) for either Android (4.0) or Embedded Linux (Kernel 3.0.8) operating systems are also available.
