ISIS - Intel Atom Single Board Computer
The ISIS processor board from Eurotech provides all the benefits of Intel's new Atom architecture in a PC/104+ form factor; comprising of a processor module and carrier board.
Using Intel's Hi-K 45nm technology the Intel Atom Z5xx series processor delivers the benefits of Intel's x86 architecture in a robust, ultra-small package with exceptional performance-per-watt. The processor is matched with an Intel System Controller Hub (SCH) US15W which is a highly integrated device combining a graphics memory controller and an I/O controller. The ISIS offers high-performance x86 compatibility in a fanless design that requires only a fraction of the power previously needed for comparable systems.
A full range of on board peripherals are provided including 8 x USB 2.0 ports, VGA, LVDS, HD-Audio, RS232/422/485, Ethernet, GPIO and IDE. Expansion requirements are well covered by a combination of PC/104 (ISA), PC/104+ (PCI) and PCI Express Mini Card, so interfacing to real-world I/O or the latest wireless technology is easy. Requiring 7 - 8W of power and running at 1.1GHz or 1.6GHz the ISIS has all the functionality and connectivity previously associated with much larger and more power-hungry systems.
The ISIS comes with up to 1GB of DDR2 RAM and 4GB of soldered-down Flash for security and durability. Further solid-state Flash expansion is available via an SDIO socket.
ISIS is compatible with all major desktop operating systems, and is also available with pre-installed, ready to run, embedded operating systems including Windows XP, XP Embedded and Wind River Linux 3.0.
Having all this performance in such a small package is a truly compelling offering that makes the ISIS ideally suited to applications such as infotainment, interactive kiosks, in-vehicle systems where mains power is not readily available, HMI, medical, mobile access routers and industrial control.
The
ISIS ICE (industrial compact enclosure) is also available.
