Janz' embedded PC systems can be designed especially for customers' environments. Also high performance systems, operating with Windows XPe and other operating systems and which offer expansion slots for PC/104 or PCI board, can be offered. Janz embedded PCs are available fanless and can operate with CompactFlash mediums, so that no rotating components are being installed. By that, a fully autarkic utilization of the embedded PC in environments with long service intervals is possible.
Enabling interoperability in high-performance embedded applications
OpenVPX expands on the VPX Base and Dot Specifications and provides a System Specification to address interoperability issues between VPX modules and Chassis. OpenVPX is an extensible specification which addresses the current and future needs for computing in harsh environments.
Risk management for counterfeit materials
Counterfeit materials will continue to challenge the defensive capabilities of manufacturers in the military and aerospace industry.

This Video is presented by Curtiss-Wright Controls Embedded Computing Curtiss-Wright Controls Embedded Computing’s VPX6-185 6U VPX single board computer is a high performance rugged processing platform.
Early verification and validation using model-based design
One of the primary benefits of model-based design is the opportunity to do rigorous verification and validation in parallel with all other development steps, especially early in the development process.
Smarter products - software becomes the most active ingredient
As software becomes the most active ingredient in product innovation, traditional manufacturers are essentially becoming software companies. While this transformation is sparking unprecedented leaps in product value, it is also introducing new challenges and implications.
Building ultra-slim embedded systems with Em-ITX
Building a slimline or thinline embedded system can be a difficult task or a relatively simple one depending on the form factor chosen for the task. But how slim is slim enough?

Janz: embedded PCs support EtherCAT
Janz now also supports EtherCAT on all emPC and emVIEW systems. EtherCAT enables high-performance machine controls to be realized, capable to exchange many distributed signals with cycle times significantly below 100 μs. Moreover, the system is just as suitable for cost-effective control applications where cycle times three orders of magnitude larger are sufficient, e.g. building automation with 100 ms. The usage of Janz embedded PC as EtherCAT Master, offers a unified and powerful communication basis for the entire automation sector.
