Small embedded computer module with large memory space

21 November 2001 Computer/Embedded Technology

µ-blox, based in Thalwil, Switzerland, has released a low-power and highly miniaturised embedded computer system with high memory capacity it calls ROGER RSD.

The ROGER RSD measures 40 x 40 mm and provides a 225-pin ball grid array that allows handling like an electronic component. The module contains the Intel SA1110 StrongARM processor, up to 32 MB of Intel Strata flash EPROM, up to 64 MB of SDRAM, internal clock generation, reset logic and power supply for the CPU core. All bus, I/O, communication and LCD video signals, and 3,3 V power lines are available on ball grid array pins.

The following communication signals are available: three UARTs (RS232), 12 Mbps USB slave, signals for two PCMCIA slots, IrDA and general-purpose I/O ports. The CPU-internal video controller can operate with a wide range of displays and glueless connection to a Philips UCB 1200 CODEC provides analog audio, telephone and touch-screen sensing.

The ROGER modules fit best in application fields where at least one of the following requirements applies: low power dissipation, maximum CPU performance (235 MIPS at 206 MHz) and high memory demands, limited space, cost efficiency, fast time-to-market for both hardware and software and product longevity.

µ-blox provides a complete development kit with the ROGER module, and also includes Windows CE, operational device drivers and Embedded Visual Studio from Microsoft that provides C/C++ and Visual Basic.
