Advantech: new full range of Atom-based boards

Advantech announces a new full range of embedded boards based on the new generation of Intel Atom N450/D510 processors. The Advantech Atom processor-based platforms range from Computer On Modules, 3.5"/5.25" Single Board Computers to Industrial Motherboards. These low power platforms provide targeted performance for energy-efficient and environmentally responsible solutions and serve a wide range of applications that include: POS, kiosk, digital signage, medical, and factory automation.

The Advantech COM-Ultra SOM-7562, with 84 x 55 mm board size, is the most suitable solution for personal handheld applications. The COM-Micro SOM-6763 and ETX 3.0 SOM-4463 will be ready at the end of Q1, 2010. For SBCs, the 3.5" PCM-9362, 5.25" PCM-9562, and PC/104 CPU module PCM-3362 are all available for compact application development. Advantech will also be introducing a new Industrial Motherboard called AIMB-212—bringing Atom efficiency to the Mini-ITX motherboard class. Finally, Advantech offers the half-size SBC PCI-7031 for highly expandable applications.
