Promwad Announces a Single Board Computer Based on TI AM1808 Processor

(ENP Newswire Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) ENP Newswire - 31 January 2013 Release date- 30012013 - Promwad Innovation Company has created a new compact single board computer (SBC) AM1808, which is designed to build embedded systems for industrial applications.

A key advantage of this platform is its ability to provide industrial level hardware reliability and uninterruptible execution of user applications. This is achieved with the onboard battery management and electronic parts with operation temperature range from -40 to +85 -degree C.

The computer AM1808 is based on the ARM processor AM1808 from Texas Instruments running at 375 MHz, the SBC has 128 MB of DDR2 and up to 512 MB of NAND, as well as a slot for microSD memory card. Board dimensions are 70x100 mm.

A wide range of external interfaces, including Ethernet, USB Host 1.1, USB OTG 2.0, connector for LCD-display and 802.11n Wi-Fi (optional) allows user to integrate the device into the infrastructure of the industrial system.

All the necessary peripherals, such as sensors and actuators, can be attached to the SBC using SPI, I2C, McBSP, UART, RS-232, GPIO interfaces via expansion connector.

A number of distributions (Buildroot, OpenWRT, Angstrom) with Linux 3.x kernel were ported to the SBC. This provides development and execution environment for software engineer and allows to use the platform as a development board for modeling and system design.
